Why don't you just get some "White Chocolate Popcorn" and be done with it?

I am glad for all of you,but once again I am scrambling for two pavillion seats. We had a fast speed connection but still didn't score in the short time we were able to try even though we were in right at 10am.It's early yet.We'll be there :) Actually I didn't get my ticket online .... the ones onl...

I don't really believe that he has to pay a fine to allow the tailgating.. I think it's more like "If you don't let my fans tailgate, I'll take my show to another arena...." Naturally when Buffett plays, its VERY good for the economy, so it's really stupid for them NOT to allow the tailgat...

They call it "uncovered" because some of the seats near the back of the Pavilion are subject to wind and rain blowing from the back

I secured a ticket in section 205, row YY, seat 19

(But for some reason the tickets cost me 126.00, even though I asked for 86.00 or second pavilion.)

Oh well, it's a pretty good view from there to the stage

Myself, I have met several celebrities (mainly old former football players), but I'm more like someone who'll "treat them like normal folks". If I met Jimmy it would be no exception to the rule.

Definitely the Dead, Probably Dave Matthews, Alan Jackson, and Bob Marley

Cool! 3 days removed from my B-day!

(So I know what I'm getting for my B-day present for myself THIS YEAR )

I guess I really don't care who wins, but my heart will be with Chicago. I really don't like Peyton Manning all that much, for one I REALLY hate those commericals he's in, and for two, he's as much a "crybaby" as Rex is when things don't go his way. I will admit that he's one of the best q...

In no particular order...(and this list took awhile.)

Drift Away - Dobie Gray

Mexico

Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald - Gordon LIghtfoot (for some reason I cannot get this song out of my head!)

Everybody's Talking

CILCIA

everyone knows that the true buffett fans are in the lawn seats anyway.. :pirate: The thing about the Lawn was that it was COMPLETELY packed at Tinley to a point where you found your spot and didn't move for the next couple of hours. Now the pavilion seat I got gave me enough room to breathe (plus ...

Interesting perspective. I imagine Peart would enjoy "Beach House On The Moon" or "Come To The Moon". He's probably just mad that Buffett doesn't sing about space or science fiction in every song. I'm not a huge Rush fan, but I like their singer. She has a beautiful voice. She? ...

I'm not really picky... I'll take a Beer, OR a Margarita? (How about both?)

We ARE talking about the same song, are we?

While I agree I'd like to hear this again live, I have to admit that the song would really be a "downer" if played during the heart of a concert and would probably be best as an "encore".....

(Maybe we should start an encore requests thread in case Jimmy's checking? )

(You probably mentioned this already, I didn't check the link) but this is one of the songs on the Boats , Beaches, Bars , and Ballads, collection, which is a GREAT introduction to those that are only familiar with the "Yellow Album"

It this just me, but is this thread starting to resemble the set list threads during a concert? (It's at least as long as a few of them already!)

I first considered myself a Parrothead a few years ago when listening to Radio Margaritaville for the first time. (At the time I was started to get INTO Buffett fairly hard and was looking for stations that played his music.) I think it was when I first discovered that RM played "live" con...

I finally "clicked" but I don't think any of the products advertised are anything I'd be able to use ...
