Just saw a truck covered in Margaritaville Rum ads go by the office. I'll have to stop at the local tonight and see if they have it in stock.

Well, while all of you guys are gabbing, I bought Jimmy's shirt. And I freely admit that I bought it because he was wearing it. But at my age I am entitled to do pretty much any silly little thing I want and get away with it. People just think it is senility setting in.

Beyond the End. That is a great song. Wonder why it has only be done live once?

Who is Arnie? Any way the West Coast people can bribe him?

The show was pretty awesome - if you didn't get chance to see it - check listings it replays several times this weekend. Personally, I think the "free" - "mystic" cut will become one of those performances we will look back on as a GREAT cut years from now. I wish---our cable com...

It appears to be just what was on TV, no outtakes.

Just checked CMT.com The whole show is on video on the site.

Being technically challenged, I recorded the show on VHS. If some one can convert that to a DVD I'll gladly send them the tape.

I'm sure that it was only aired in the Myrtle Beach area, but during the commercial break at around the 45 minute mark, we had a commercial for a local strip club. Looks like someone has a finger on the pulse of at least some of the BN family :lol: There were two commercials for Hooters up here in ...

Well, here is just what Jimmy needs: an Ekranoplan Yacht. He likes tree top flying. This is just a little lower but you sure could spot fish. http://www.yachtboutique.com/Designers/Ekranoplan/Ekranoplan.htm Perhaps the most exciting feature of the Gemini is its ability to fly right into a remote de...

There is a live version on the 11-4-2000 Sag Harbor concert but I don't remember Jimmy saying anything about tuning his guitar. He does talk about his inspiration for the song which is quite interesting. Heres the jokelben link: http://buffett.jokelben.us/2000.11.04%20-%20East%20Hampton%20NY/ Just ...

It depends on the song. If he is doing the upbeat ones then it is usually better live. You can hear the audience and feel the energy. But if he is doing ballads and uses his barroom baritone, then I prefer the studio version. The only times these sound good is when he is in front of a small audience.

Well that is really impressive. Do we think those planes are really being used everyday or are they just sitting there?

Yeah! Nancy comes through again.

First post on BN....I'm trying to find the poem from either Pirate Looks at Fifty or Salty Piece of Land about a man who wants two separate lives. One of being married and having a home and one of traveling and having freedoms. Does anyone know the author and which book it was from? Thanks!!! If th...

It's on Jokelben in the Odds and Ends #3 way down at the bottom. Ironically I just added to the "Wish List" thread that Jimmy started.
