There is no question that Mr Buffett was recorded singing LA freeway with Mr Walker....I heard it, and, as I recall, Mr Buffett was none too sure of the words.... I just cant remember what bootleg it was....possibly one from the Sausalito radio station in 1970s will try to remember to check my cds a...

Now I REALLY have to buy those Megaball tickets!! However, the bidding goes on till 12/13...who knows how high it might go, while i would have to cash in my IRAs and sell my beautiful young niece to raise $11,000.... [smilie=battingeyes.gif] [smilie=battingeyes.gif] {sigh} guess i better go back to...

My niece and I will be there Friday evening....I have her playing his cds in preparation...

Last i looked, there were still tickets for Friday and Sat, if anyone is interested....

Enjoy ----keep off LA Freeways, and keep your Fins Up!!!

Writing clearly Winchester strives to make music that's easy on his listeners By MICHAEL ECK, Special to the Albany Times Union First published: Thursday, November 23, 2006 Songwriter Jesse Winchester says he doesn't remember many specific details about the writing of individual songs, but it's clea...

Now I REALLY have to buy those Megaball tickets!! But wait, maybe I should look at this from a different perspective...If I were to travel to several of Mr. Buffett's concerts around the country in 2007, with the airfares, hotel bills, and miscellaneous costs [very HIGH if Vegas is included], I coul...

I believe I have it on VHS and most of it on TIVO

CNN just showed some of Ed's friends speaking at the funeral and they showed a clip of Jimmy singing "Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Orleans." Yes, Mr. Buffett had a very minor part in the memorial service, I suspect by his own preference. Alan Trousaint played piano for his mournf...

yep

I've looked at the finances and think I can make this event happen for me. Still not sure about staying over night? May just tough it out and head home after the show. At least back to Denver, or close. YOU GO, GIRL!!! Pssst... Hippolyte is Michael.. a guy. :lol: Da*n!!! Dont know where I got that ...

YOU GO, GIRL!!!

we so need details so everyone can make plans or realize it can't happen this year!! last year we got details less than a week ahead. I doubt this year will be any different. :) note to self: buy a lottery ticket this afternoon! Wasn't it the same for the Fillmore show? I seem to remember the show ...

??? You called, sir??

Yikes! No one at the Belly Up will confirm any date at this time...half the month of December is available...saw the "private party" on the 22nd...maybe Freddy wants it private this 60th year??? no, if he wanted it kept private, he would not have mentioned it on RM to parrotheads. However...

It's a 4.5 hour drive from my house...and that's in good weather. If I lived within 2 hours of the venue, there'd be no question, I'd be there. But I too will need a hotel and the days to fall right so I can either take off from work, or already be off. If it happens Friday, 12/22, then the days ar...

This Freddy guy doesn't want anyone showing up that has to think about it too long. That's part of what's killing me. The details could prove badly for me, then the decision would be made. What's going to s*ck is if it's on a day that I could make it and I can't talk myself into it. and you're righ...

IF he has to do a cover (Buffett has enough material of his own to do a full show with his songs.... Actually, he has enough GREAT stuff of his own to fill many shows....but he does covers so well too, that my list would be : ...Jesse Winchester's Yankee Lady ...September Grass ...Eric Clapton's Wo...
