We have only flown into Key West, but that is because we flew on frequent flier miles so price didn't matter. I hear the drive from Miami is beautiful. I agree with Freddy that with layovers and waiting for luggage, etc.. takes just as long as it would to drive - if we ever have to pay to fly we'll ...

The cemetary is also a very interesting spot to visit along with Fastbuck Freddies and Schooner Wharf is another "must see"

don't bother trying to spring for a hotel in Mallory Square, the cruise ships block out the view. Try www.treetopinn.com we rented the carribbean house back in November and loved it. They have some properties closer to Mallory Square that may end up less expensive than a hotel.

For some reason I'm not able to hear the snippet of the song. I've tried but nothing happens. I've checked my volume controls to make sure I haven't muted my sound - any suggestions? I'm on a work computer so I'm not able to download anything from the net

Yeah, they know who Alan Jackson is, they play him constantly. I've checked their songs they've played over the last 48 hours and they just aren't playing it. I've emailed them and called them a couple of times and they just don't have it. Maybe we should all email them and load up their inbox with ...

I called the local country radio station yesterday twice - both times they were like "duh" They've never heard of this song - or they choose not to play it.

I've tried searching the internet to see if I can listen to it on one of the country stations but no luck!

We did the Today show last time he played and you do have to stand all night but it was worth it.

Train ticket to NYC 28.00, buying drinks and snacks at the store across the street so you can use the rest room 8.00, standing all night to see Jimmy Buffet - priceless!

If you look at the schedule, you will see that there are gaps in the dates - May 9,23,30,June 20,27,July 4,25, August 15 and Sept 12,19. When you look at his schedule there many opportunities for him to perform there so don't give up hope yet!

If you are creative and don't mind trimming up the shirt, you could make it into a quilt. Take your favorite shirts and cut the best parts out and use fabric strips to connect them all together. Then you'd never have to part with it and it would always fit!

In regards to the comment about being compensated for time. How much longer does it take to buy 8 tickets as opposed to one ticket. Wouldn't you still have to drive 5 hours and wait in line just as long for one ticket. If you're already there and can get good seats and help out other phans why not d...

On those rare occasions when I hear a Buffett song on the radio I also crank it up. Recently Cheeseburger has been played on a local station. It's like an unexpected gift

That was the one. I sent it work with Mr. VAFINS so he could read the article so I don't have it in front of me, but it came in the mail on Monday so I would guess it hit the stands on Tuesday. The article didn't really have anything new in it, but it did sound like he'll tour again next year which ...

Could it be that the article was only in the issues that were mailed to subscribers? It was in my issue, but we subscribe. That would really stink if this is true.
