Got on right at 9 a.m. and got section 108, seats 1, 2 &3. It's lower level at the corner of the stage and are excellent seats. I tried again and nothing better than upper section 225 popped up....

It's my understanding that Buffett & Taylor first hooked up in the mid '70s. By the time of the Volcano recordings, they were regular drinking buddies. In fact, I recall reading an interview with Carly Simon in 1979 or 1980 where she talks about being fed up with Baby James "spending all hi...

The Hard Rock in Key West does still have an acoustic guitar signed by Buffett. It's hanging above the bar on the second floor, just off the Beatles room. I saw it a few weeks ago....

We're heading down to Key West for the week of Thanksgiving (and my birthday) and wonder if anyone has ever had Thanksgiving Day dinner at a restaurant down there and if so, what's a good place? I know Pepe's serves Thanksgiving dinner every Thursday throughout the year and Alice's has a price fixe ...

Everyone knows it all began with the Elvis Imitators riding their USS Zydecoldsmobile along the Coast of Carolina because it was a Rag Top Day. They picked up Frank and Lola and went Conky Tonkin' on a Livingston Saturday Night. They met up with a Cowboy in the Jungle who ate the last Mango in Paris...

Waylon Jennings covered "He Went to Paris."

Sorry, I gotta put my two cents in. John Denver was not a nice man....my dad was a limo driver in Louisville, and he was driving Mr. Denver back and forth to his hotel, and the venue. Dad asked him nicely for an autograph, and he snapped at him that he "doesn't do that". Not, "I'm so...

"Here Comes the Sun" was also done was an encore at the February 2002 show in Tallahassee.

This news just in: Toby Keith, after seeing first-hand the success of Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville Cafes as an extension of his music and lifestyle, has teamed with Harrah's in Las Vegas to open "I Love This Bar and Grill" to capitalize on Toby's music and fans. The VIP booths will look ...

I just freed a Mac (his self-named album from '99) at the Dollar Tree in Tifton, Ga.!

The photo in question was taken on Monday, July 25, 1977, according to "The Daily Diary of President Jimmy Carter" in the National Archives. According to the official White House log, from 12:07 until 12:12 p.m., "The President participated in a photo opportunity with: Jimmy Buffett, ...

A few years ago during one of my trips to M'ville Cafe in KW, an employee there said they never know any sooner than a few minutes before he shows up. I've heard about him showing up there in the a.m. shortly after it opens and late at night. When he appears at night, the employees are told to watch...

Wait a minute ... that book blurb said "novel." I thought this was going to be a collection of short stories!....

I don't think it matters how many songs on a particular CD he has actually written. It is what he does with the songs that is important. Bubba has done an admirable job of choosing some great material for LTC. Virtually every one of them fits him. The more I listen to it, I'm especially hooked on &q...

Now: "From the bottom of my heart..."
Then: "I'm down on the knees of my heart...."

No one has mentioned Joni Mitchell. She has been a longtime favorite of his for decades. She also used to show up at his old bar on the Rock. He once said during his days on his old sailboat Euphoria that he always had plenty of Joni's tapes aboard...

If it were up to me, I would put "Conky Tonkin' " out as a single ... right after I put out the single "License to Chill." Then I would follow all that up with the single "Coast of Carolina"....

I haven't heard too much favoring "Conchy Tonkin' " That song grows on ya; I ended up playing it back-to-back three times.
As for "Back to the Island," it's a good song and good choice but I found Jimmy's voice doesn't hold up as well in that key he's singing it in...
