Atlanta - Hi-Fi - 1995. Having myself, wife, and 5 y.o. daughter who was on my shoulders, all wearing our grass skirts and assorted gear, shown on ParrotVision during intermission. This was also the show when we found out just how great PH's are. Because we didn't have tickets to the show, we bought...

Have two full time jobs. In the daytime, I'm a systems administrator for the municipal police department. At night, I ride the streets as a paramedic. Occasionally, I sleep.

I don't really remember, but must be been well into the 30's. I first saw him in '77 here in Savannah. He's been here three times that I can remember. After one show, he climbed on stage at an old club down on River Street and sang the rest of the night - really cool in a small club setting. I've al...

Frances Damage in Palm Beach Co??

Just wondering if anyone has heard - but JB's house (one of them anyway) is oceanfront in Palm Beach County, isn't it? I was just wondering if anyone has seen any reports on any damage to any of the high end real estate in the area. I missed the concert Saturday - did JB mention anything about the s...

My prized JB possession is a personally signed B/W 8x10 publicity glossy that I got backstage in Sept. 1983. JB was in town playing at the Civic Center and my dad at the time, worked at the center. I was able to enjoy the show from backstage, and meet JB after the show.

Any chance someone could post a link to the performance?

Some people had to work last night, and didn't get to see the show. (The same person who was running late for work and didn't have time to set the VCR.)

By chance, is anyone planning to post the performance, and/or award presentation, so moron's like me can see it?

THX!!!

Information in link is wrong

If this is true, then this is yet another bit of tragic news. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Captain's family and all those whose life he touched. I mentioned "if this was true" because I wanted to find out more about the accident, so I searched for "Captain Groovy" and sa...

Buffett was on TV for about 2 seconds

I'm not surprised that FOX went to commercial. I can't stand watching BB on FOX. That little "varoomm" sound byte they play every time they go to, and come back from, a replay goes through me like needles under my fingernails.... But... They did have a shot of JB in the skybox when Sosa hi...

Buffett's got a new boat

Jimmy Buffett has bought the first ever Rybovich 42' Express Walkabout yatch produced. I found this in the January, 2003, edition of Boating Magazine (p.29 - Wet Flashes). The blurb reads: "Rybovich sold the first of its million-dollar 42 Express Walkabouts to Jimmy Buffett. The son of a son of...

Ticketbastard

Just yet another reason that I hate Ticketbastard :evil:

It's an unfair practice, and one that shows you gotta have the big $$$ to run with the boys. Pre-sale tickets.....nice idea, but sure as hell not fair to the rest of us who'd like to go.

I was at SeaWorld Orlando last weekend and saw that they have a whole section of the park designed around a Key West theme. And of course, playing on the piped in music system everywhere in that area, is about 95% Buffett tunes. I knew I liked that park.
