Floridays

Post by tdparrothead »

With the Hoot Soundtrack coming out soon and the new tour also approaching, does anyone else think he should play Floridays. Seeing as he remade it for the soundtrack, I think it would be great if he threw it in his lineup. It's my favorite Jimmy Buffett song, but he never plays it. Hopefully things will change and he'll play it on this tour!!!

I also think we are likely to hear it at some if not all of the shows coming up!

Floridays would be great! I think there's a good chance based on the the movie and the remake of the song.

This will also get a donation made to the National Wildlife Federation and you can enter a sweepstakes to win "a trip to Florida for a family of four courtesy of Visit Florida, 2 tickets and 2 backstage passes to a Jimmy Buffett concert, and a meet & greet with Brie Larson!" (There actually is hope for some Florida concert dates!) You can enter the sweepstakes here: http://www.hootmovie.com/adoptanowl/

Back to Floridays, once you have [url=http://www.hootmovie.com/adoptanowl/download.html]downloaded<a> your owl, you can change his status to "grumpy" and then choose to "soothe with music". Your little owl gets an iPod and listens to the Floridays clip. I think Savannah is in the works here... another old song she has had dad "reggae up"! And I hear harmonica in there!

WOW There is a harmonica in there!!!! :D :D :D


I didn't notice the lack of harmonica though in the previous albums. Did fingers leave the band?

I had a thread here a while back about what was Jimmy's most underrated album. I said Floridays and many folks agreed. Great album and he never plays anything off of it.
