Tin Cup Chalice reference by David Lee Roth

pgr17 · Post by **pgr17** » January 24, 2006 12:28 pm

this probably isn't even worth the bandwith to type, but this morning on the lame David Lee Roth show, he was talking about something dealing with food and he mentioned how he wanted to eat "oysters and beer every day of the year like that Jimmy Buffett song says." thought it was pretty cool to hear a reference to a sort-of obscure Buffett song.

thanks all

I saw another reference to Buffett on The Travel Channel the other night during a feature on houseboats. Seems one of the families being profiled stopped at the burger joint supposedly responsible for inspiring Buffett to write "Cheeseburger In Paradise". They had a framed (and signed) photo of Bubba on the wall.

I have no idea but I'm guessing it's the one he mentions in The Parrothead Handbook that comes with the box set.

not mentioned by name, but in passing. And I have three of the 10 on the "Best Cheeseburger Sites" list down. Thinking that might make for a project...

According to the Handbook the unnamed restaurant is in Roadtown on the island of Tortola. I wish I'd known that when our cruise ship stopped there in 2001!

David Lee played Tin Cup live on a morning radio show...long before he had his own. He mentioned he was a big fan of Bubba's and loved that song.

Not really, especially considering that other Van Halen singer has been referred to as the "Jimmy Buffett of rock n' roll".

I thought the name of the restaurant was "Le Select" in St. Barts.

I saw that too....if I can remember the name of the place I will post it. I had heard of it before.

At last count, there were 46 places claiming to be the place that inspired that song.

There's a burger joint in Kenly, NC with Buffett's signed photo hanging on the wall. The story behind it is that Buffett stopped through there one time and no one knew who he was until he mentioned "Cheeseburger".

It's not actually on Tortola, but just off of it. It's called Marina Cay... here's a view of it from our plane as we left Tortola last October.

There is however a Marina called Marina Cay that is on Tortola....we had dinner there............ I never saw any reference to Buffett there though.
