It looks like it could be a fun time, maybe even a small phlocking before AC?

I've seen them quite a few times in AC. Parrot Beach and JImmy and the Parrots are both good bands. Very personable and put on a nice show.

damn, I wish I could have met you! I helped organize that shindig in lot "N"!

Parrot Beach and Jimmy and the Parrots are both unique, and awesome in different ways. Parrot Beach musically might be a but "tighter"? but Jimmy and the Parrots are a bit more spontaneuos. Jimmy and The Parrots pulled my daughter on stage with them during their last set because they couldn't believe that she knew every word to every Buffett song. So they are quite special to me. But both bands are extraordinry in their own special ways!

Isn't that start time a little early for an AFTER SHOW party?

Thanks to Mary Kay for organizing. Riding in the caravan was a blast.

Black Jack.... my better halfs brother had your ribs and thats all we heard all night from him. Awsome.

To all the Bn'ers that I met it was awsome to put names with faces....The Ottocals, DocandJeanie, TropicAl. and the loads of others that I met thats for being so open and inviting to total strangers.

And finally one rant to the majority of the lame people in section 232 a big finz down. I saw way to many people sitting and was actually told to sit down by someone while dancing to Fruitcakes (yes I dance like Elaine from Seinfeld) becuase we standing and dancing. First time in all the shows Ive been to Ive ever had some say down in front becuase they werent gonna stand during the show. Oh well.

Hope to see you all soon!

backstreets77 we had a similar experience:

Before I hit that margarita I'll vent a little. We had an encounter with a couple that were sitting behind us in 331. We came into our row 1 spot (won't use the word seats because we never sit) within 30 seconds the guy's telling us to sit down. I turn around and he says nothing, we go back to dancing and he yells again. I tell him that we're not gonna sit all night and that we would move away from them into the spot next to ours because no one was there. That didn't help him so he and his girl continued harassing us. I suggested he stand up, or move down into the 4 empty seats right in front of him, that wasn't good enough for them either.

At which point he threatens to throw me over the railing, now those of you who know my stature, that would be no easy task. But it scared Mau, especially when his girl on 2-3 occasions got up to come over and scream in our ears and curse the crap out of us; well at least we got'em up.

We stayed the course and went on enjoying ourselves in spite of their actions, by the way no one else in the section was standing initially let alone dancing and they never complained or joined the a$$holes.

THen 1 by 1, a couple people would get up and move around a bit, by the time CIP came most of the section was up except for our new friends

Well I guess they got exhausted from sitting or complaining and after CIP they got up, both of them, finally and LEFT.

So Fins Up to our newly departed section mates and THANK YOU to everyone else in 331 for letting us enjoy ourselves and especially to those of you who got up and joined us.

You can take the kid out of Philly but you can't take the Philly out of the kid

Sorry to hear about your experience. In another way im glad I wasnt the only one that had the problem. I thought there was some new trend at Buffett were people sit.

I also met you and your better half she kicked my friends and myselfs behind at beer pong. We were the ones that had the Pong Island setup. I cant believe they threatened to toss ya over. Man oh Man only a Philly crowd.

Well Fins Up and it was nice to me you two at the tailgate.

That's what happens when they invite 50k people. Too many curious Georges. F'em if they can't have a good time.

I grew up in K & A; and I've been threw it all .. his sorry a$$ would of been right with me. BTW Bruce Fan? & which one are you? BTW she never played before (lol) but she does throw a mean dart.
