Jimmy gives more to Parrotheads than any other artist!

Post by LI BANANA REPUBLICS »

The Parrothead nation has been blessed to share our time with Jimmy Buffett.
No other music artist in history has done more for their fans or has such a special relationship.
- Live concert broadcasts on Radio Margaritaville.
- New Ustream live sound check and live concert feeds.
- Ipad live chats with the fans after sound check at Atlanta.
- Margaritaville restaurants to escape to relax and keep the state of mind going.
- This great Buffett News.Com website to keep in touch with each other.

There is a saying about ships passing in the night!
Enjoy the trip! We have been blessed to share this special time with Jimmy.
Like Jimmy always says, with my fans, who needs a Grammy!

:D

Last time I looked PHJim was the guy in charge here not JB.
But I see your point.

A couple things, although I agree with at least the spirit of the OP...

*Margaritaville Cafes: I'm not sure that giving us a place to give JB money is really "giving back" to fans.

*I don't understand why any other artist would give stuff to Parrotheads. :pirate:

Agree with your sentiments but as someone noted above it's phjim who runs this great BuffettNews site. In fact, if you look at the very bottom of the page, you see "This site is not directly affiliated with Jimmy Buffett, Margaritaville.com, or Radio Margaritaville."

THANKS, PHJIM!!!!!!!! :D

The Help Support BuffettNews thread is here ----> viewtopic.php?f=36&t=36070

Speaking from personal experience, it takes a few dollars and many (many) personal hours to set up, maintain and provide a community website.

So if you truly enjoy this board and all of the rich content at the full website, consider taking a moment to click, pay to say thanks. It's easy.

I think I'm overdue to send in another voluntary payment myself.

Thanks from me, too. I think maybe the intent was if there was no JB, there wouldn't have been BN, so.....JB kinda laid the egg and PHJIM hatched the chick! :lol:

Oh I think that margaritaville restaurants definitely gives something back to the fans, and I sure as hell do not mind paying for what I get there. When I go to a margaritaville I get an atmosphere that I cannot get anywhere else unless I want to go to the islands. Normally, I have better things to do with my time than sit in a restaurant for three hours just doing nothing, but in the case of Margaritaville, it is another place that I do not have the opportunity to go to every day, and it is a place for me to escape to while living the sometimes crazy reality of life.In my opinion Jimmy does a lot for his fans compared to many artists, and I believe that he sincerely appreciates his fans.
