So it appears the WTF Tour of 2011 is now WTF 2012.

Is there really no "NEW" 2012 Tour?

Are we going to start seeing the usual stops start being announced...
-ATL
-Cincy
-Frisco
-Etc.

I don't think anyone really knows. I thought Hawaii would have been a logical place to end the 2012 WTF tour. But two weeks after that Jimmy plays in Tampa, and two weeks after that he starts the run of April shows. This whole schedule isn't making any sense at all!!

He could change the name in mid-stream... maybe even mid-show!

This was the announcement for the newly added Kansas City show on 04/21/12:

Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band will perform at Sprint Center for one night only on SATURDAY, APRIL 21 at 8 pm, as part of Jimmy Buffett’s “WELCOME TO FIN LAND” Tour 2012.


Brenda Tinnen, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Sprint Center said, “We are thrilled to welcome Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band back to Kansas City. Fans from throughout the Midwest will undoubtedly enjoy this must-see concert of the summer!”

That would be reallt sweet. Knowing JB's marketing folks, they would sell the WTF shirts & as soon as he announces the new tour's name, have new shirts & such ready to sell.

Perhaps KC is last of WTF Tour? Starts a "new" schedule in late May thru Summer as usual.

Surley he hits Chicago, Cincy, ATL, Houston, Mansfield etc??

No Frisco this year.
He is going Dallas Fairgrounds venue instead

Jimmy has continued a tour through May before, such as Havana Daydreamin tour.

A few of the new tours didn't start until the end of May. Fruitcakes went through April and the Domino College started end of May.

That is true conched, but I don't ever remember JB playing the same cities twice on the same tour. Tampa, Dallas...

Kansas City will be on the WTF twice...

That's true. Good thing he's changing a few of the songs at every show these days since NO new album.

He's gotta do better while recycling/reusing.

Except too that he played several nights in a row in the same city in the past.

Let's hope he won't reduce.

Maybe there are a lot of leftover t-shirts from WTF....

Actually i saw a shirt from the Miami show , it ended with Tampa on March 30th , he will have to print more to include the new added cities!!

This really has become the WTF tour - like What The F@~#! is he thinking tour, or the Who the F~2#! knows what Jimmy is planning next!
I guess this is just a big game to him!

Maybe they can't "afford" new stage props.......

Maybe JB just ran out of tour names.........

Maybe JB forgot what year it is........

Personally - I dont mind what they call the tour, as long as he keeps playing............

Exactly what I was about to post...

Don't remember what show it was, and don't remember whether it was pre-show Bing and Bong or a comment during the show, but JB said something to the effect of let's just continue on with the WTF tour.

Maybe he just wanted to get a WTF?? out of us. Looks like he's succeeding. Maybe he's just living up to the lyrics:
I travel on the songlines that only dreamers see
Not known for predictability
