Haven't seen you since the River park thing two years ago.
You weren't at Pine Knob last year were you?

It's our Buffett EVE! I think I've gotten all my projects done. Just need to fill the coolers with ice...load up the car and head north! Anyone planning on posting updates here tomorrow? My people are meeting at noon.

Come find the Shark Girls tomorrow :)

So much fun seeing everyone!
And the thunderstorms held off until halfway through the encores.
Actually felt good!

Sorry missed you Al. We were on the grassy knoll between the lots & and I saw you just as you were skateboarding around the corner heading towards the front. never saw you during our walkabouts up towards the gates. Had 100+ jello shots to pass out. Good to see Scott & Carol in the lot. Have fun in the Windy City Saturday guys!

Impressed with the crowd. Expecting the numbers to be down due to a Tuesday night show, and a very late arriving crowd it was indeed, but seemed like the enthusiasm was off the hook. The crowd still singing strong to show closer He Went to Paris was very impressive [smilie=coolup.gif]
Once again thought Jimmy was quite authentic in his appreciation to us Michiganders. You can always say what you will about setlist choices but his enthusiasm for the shows seems unparalleled!

I watched on Mville TV and also felt he was genuine in his appreciation. It may have been sweat or maybe rain, but I almost thought I saw some liquid near his eyes as he sang Pirate. I loved the melody of tunes from "Changes" as that is my favorite album. Wish I would have gone as it would have been fun to meet up and finally meet many of the Michigan folk who were there. However, I was very glad it was streamed so I could watch and enjoy what has become an integral part of my life. He mentioned he would be back.........if so I am going :)

Regarding your last comment...............riiiight....... :roll: :wink:
But seriously, would be nice to hook up again at a Buffett show. Been awhile now!

I'm assuming must have opened the lot about 1:00?
