Can Jimmy make it to Washington?
I finally got to see Jimmy Buffett here in Auburn Washington a few years ago. When his new tour dates come out he rarely comes up here. Could he make back here again for another concert??? I'm sure there are parrotheads out here craving some more of Jimmy.

I know there's several of us that would enjoy that but we're also not holding our breath. Welcome to BN!

White Water sucks...
He needs to get back to the Gorge, but it ain't gonna happen. Shiz is gettin' old.

Re: Can Jimmy make it to Washington?
I actually liked the White River show!
It's not a bad venue; the sight lines are good, the accoustics are fine...
The three stinkin' hours that it took me to get from the Supermall parking lot to the venue? Never again!
Please Jimmy, please come to Key Arena! You owe us... we all had such great plans and high hopes for the 10/21/09 show. Time to pay up!

Re: Can Jimmy make it to Washington?
I'm glad to see that I'm not the only parrothead wishing for Jimmy to come back. White River was fine for the concert I however agree with Seattle parrot head about the trip getting there and back. Maybe Comcast arena. Let's just keep hoping and maybe he might bring some Margartiaville this way.

Re: Can Jimmy make it to Washington?
OK I'll concede that the venue itself is good for a show however the traffic AND the fact that they do not allow you to set up anything in the parking lot (or tailgate at all for that mater) makes it one of the worst scenes in the freaking country as far as I am concerned.Washingtonparrothead wrote:I'm glad to see that I'm not the only parrothead wishing for Jimmy to come back.

Re: Can Jimmy make it to Washington?
Have you ever been to the Gorge? Have you ever seen Jimmy at the Gorge? I have, and it blows ALL venues in ID, OR and WA away.
That is where he needs to come back to. Period.
And White Water (sarcasm) sucked for a JB concert, and it still sucks for a JB concert.

Re: Can Jimmy make it to Washington?
We attended the Rose Garden show in Portland. The local Parrothead club had a pre party in a hotel banquet room and we attended that also. The pre party was great. You should have come to that.FINSUPinIdaho wrote:while I am on it....

We ended up at a party at some hotels pool, and it was not very good. That might have been 2002 though...

I got photos of when Jimmy flew his plane in and landed on the river and came up to play. Got to find those. I will post them if I do...and oh yeah, I've been talking up the Gorge forever. Greatest place for a tailgate PERIOD.

Re: Can Jimmy make it to Washington?
Like White River, the Gorge is a great place to see a concert.... like White River, it is a b**** (female dog) to get to.
If we're gonna have a Seattle concert, it should be in Seattle!
How about Safeco? Jimmy played Fenway, the BoSox won the series, Jimmy played Wrigley, the ChiSox won the series (I know the Cubbies play in Wrigley, but hey, some things even Jimmy can't fix!), Jimmy played Citizens, the Phillies won the series! Please Jimmy, come play Safeco!
