Thank You Jimmy...For Kicking The Covers Off

Post by buffett81611 »

It has been really enjoyable to see how these latest legs of the tour have been more about Buffett music than other people's stuff. Brown Eyed Girl and Southern Cross are Buffett standards like You've Got a Friend and Handy Man are to James Taylor, but throwing in stuff like Manana, Jolly Man, Ragtop Day....it's just been great.

I can complain on this board, but I just wanted to thank Jimmy and his people for a thoroughly enjoyable second and third leg of the summer tour. I'd like to think that our input helped shape that in some way.

Thanks for listening...We're Still Here!

Peace,
Matt

Totally agree, the set lists have been great. At least two or three surprises every night that you'd never see coming.

Looking at last nights setlist...I agree....good additions and subtractions.

Granted, I see Scarlot Begonias and Rainy Day...but I for one (maybe the only one) like SB....could do without the other, but thats ok.

Wish I had heard They don't dance like Carmen no more: how was it, after all these years? Was there a dancer with fruit on her (or his) head?

Wonder what he'll have in store for those much sought after Florida dates?

I made a hat piled high with fruit for the Philly show in 2005. Couldn't wear it too long thought, was too heavy.. I still have it though, saving it for a "special" occasion. :D
