Dulles(Washington DC) > LAX - $366
LAX > Papeete - $961
roughly $1400 Of course, that's today. If he makes us wait until September/October, we're probably going to need to auction off our first born......
I AM their first born.
Do you want to help us hold up the "WHEN IS TAHITI??" sign at GW???UpstateNYPH wrote:Is it time to go yet?
I was going to do it for Philly, but totally forgot and am not happy about it.ScarletB wrote:Do you want to help us hold up the "WHEN IS TAHITI??" sign at GW???UpstateNYPH wrote:Is it time to go yet?
You always have a great seat, I'm sure he'd see it. Although mine is pretty good too, maybe we should make several!
WE NEED A DATE!Wouldn't it be great to know by then??? *sigh*UpstateNYPH wrote:I was going to do it for Philly, but totally forgot and am not happy about it.ScarletB wrote:Do you want to help us hold up the "WHEN IS TAHITI??" sign at GW???UpstateNYPH wrote:Is it time to go yet?

By the time GW rolls around, I better be holding a "See you in Tahiti" sign!
Found an interesting story by Tom Moffatt online (I am assuming most of you know the Moffatt/Buffett Tahiti history)

A Bloody Mary and a Margarita: It wasn’t long after that I was with Jimmy Buffett in Bora Bora after his first Tahiti concert in Papeete in 1982. We were invited to dinner at Bloody Mary’s, and afterward our genial host asked us to stay behind, as he had a surprise. After the other customers had left, he brought out a 16mm projector and showed us South Pacific in its entirety. Seeing the movie’s vibrant Kauai scenery, including the mythical Bali Hai, while sitting there amidst the similar beauty of Bora Bora is something that I will never forget ...
But didn't you tell me one time that your sister wouldn't be a good date?Wino you know wrote:Need a date?LIPH wrote:GIVE US A F'N DATE ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!
My sister is available.

I'll go to Hawaii, and there's a CHANCE I could go to Tahiti IF it's immediately before or after the Hawaii concert. I'm not holding my breath, however.Seriously give us a date for Hawaii and Tahiti. As long as I make it to Hawaii I'll be happy. If I'm able to do Hawaii and Tahiti that'll just be icing on the cake.
You may be pushing your luck a little there.A question for everyone here. Do you think I'm safe to make plans to be out of the country from Sept 6 to November 1. I wouldn't want to make those plans and find out Jimmy is doing Hawaii/Tahiti starting on Nov 1.
Well he better announce a date no later then mid July. I'm getting ansy about the price of airline tickets. Right now Costa Rica is only $600. hawaii is about $700 to 800 last time I checked, but hope to be able to use FF miles to Hawaii, or pay for a ticketto Hawaii and use FF miles to get to Tahiti.Wino you know wrote:He said he wanted a DATE, he didn't say anything about a GOOD date.diverg wrote:But didn't you tell me one time that your sister wouldn't be a good date?

His restaurant in Hawaii is supposed to open sometime in November, so it would make sense that it would cooincide with the concert. I'm guessing everything is contingent upon the opening of the restaurant, F.W.I.W.
I could deal with 2 or 3 months, but I won't be able to work with 2 or 3 WEEKS.Catch&Release wrote:He only gave 2 or 3 months notice for Anguilla though he knew in August 2006 that he'd be playing the Dunes Preserve in March 2007.
