I was at this show, and since JB did an 11 song set, I felt it was legally safe to count it as my 44th Buffett show. Been waiting a long time for this DVD to finally get released. By the way, 7/1/06 Jones Beach #45, 8/1/06 Philly #46, and 9/14/06 Madison Square Garden #47!!

How can it be a Jimmy Buffett introduction if Ed Bradley did it?
What if the hokey pokey is really what it's all about?

Reminder, this comes out tomorrow, and though we're always looking for the best price, 100% of the net proceeds from the sale of the DVD benefit victims of hurricane Katrina.

Received this 2 disc DVD today and have spent the evening watching it!!!

WOW!!! What a great show!!!

Sorry to say, I couldnt go, watched it on pay per view, but didnt realize what an outstanding show it was till tonite. So many things, but especially the Simon and Garfinkel reunion and their singing Bridge over Troubled Waters with Aaron Neville

----and i thought i had seen a shot of Mr. Buffett flash by on the screen back then, cheering for S & G and Aaron, and, sure enough, it made the DVD. What a natural and generous man he is!!
