Re: favorite book by jimmy or about him?

A Salty Piece of Land and A Pirate Looks At Fifty.

I'm reading Where is Joe Merchant right now, and all I can say is OMG. This book is so twisted, and some parts are just down right evil, but I can't put it down. Jimmy's imagination was really working over time when he wrote that book.

Re: Gonna re-read A Salty Piece of Land

I finished the book last night, and I know that I will read it again. I was crying when Cleopatra died. Then I cried when all loose ends were tied up in the end. Tully falls in love with Cleopatra's grand niece. Now how is that for Cleopatra carma, and all of the other characters do well. I love the...

Re: Gonna re-read A Salty Piece of Land

I'm reading ASPOL for the first time. In fact, when I get done posting here I'm going to continue reading. I'm at the part where Cleopatra saved Tully's ass from the Stilton idiots, Tully is on the ship, and he is reading a long letter from Willie Singer. I have read A pirate Looks at Fifty twice, a...

Re: Interesting Letter from Jimmy to Biographer Steve Eng

I read the book a couple years ago, and I'm glad I checked it out of the library instead of buying it. It is certainly not a scandalous book which is good, but since it was unauthorized, all of the information was 2nd hand which means there is an element of inaccuracy. There was so much information ...

Re: Ticket buying secrets??????

I get my ticket the day they go on sale, because I want to be done with it. I'm usually planning for myself, so I get 1 ticket, and I've had good luck with that.

Re: Who's going to Detroit on June 22nd?!

I'm definitely in! This will probably be my only show this year, so I am going to make it an extra point to have more fun than any human should be allowed to have.

Re: Who's going to Paris 09/24/10?

I flew to CT in November for the Mohegan Sun show. When I landed in Chicago to catch my flight to CT the Pilot of the plane helped me off the plane. He noticed that I was wearing a Margaritaville jacket and mentioned that he was a parrothead and that he went to the Paris show. I told him that a frie...

Re: Buffet Hotel

I'm in the process of getting rid of the extra person living on me, and I ride my exercise bike every day. I know Buffet Hotel is good when I can ride my bike to that album and not stop to check my timer to see if I am almost done pedaling.

Re: Buffet Hotel

Cruzinparrots--I love your review. I totally agree with you about this album. The more I listen to it the more I love it. I applaud Jimmy for thinking outside the box and not being stuck in the past when he could easily just go through the motions. I hope that as I get older that I will take a cue f...

Re: Will JB return to the MGM in Vegas any time soon?

This is just my humble opinion, but if the rumors are true that Jimmy will be playing secondary markets this year I would not be at all surprised if the tour is completely different compared to previous years when we expected and counted on him playing the usual venues. However, this year I think w...

The last show that JB did at PGP was in 2007. This was the first ever JB concert that I listened to on RadioMargaritaville as I was curious about all of this madness and wanted to hear a show. The rest is history.

Well, we won't know for sure until the dates are anounced, but Wednesday shows have been occasionally known to happen.
