My gut is telling me Fingers will be on stage again. I agree about what someone said about the horns being let go for this to happen. Making sense now. Guess I may have to leave the island for a week to see and hear for myself. I won't be bidding on any $200 lawn tickets. Rather, I'll show up and ho...

Of course this is only my own speculation.... but.... Last summer my husband and I were still living in Reno. One of our good friends, Garratt Wilkin, of Garratt Wilkin and the Parrotheads, was performing for a new winery in California. Fingers also attended and performed with Garratt. We had a wond...

Not sure what location you're from. Do know of Garratt Wilkin and the Parrotheads. They're awesome and maybe their schedule could accomodate you.

Tried to view, but only saw a little "x".
I'd love to see what it looks like. Just hoping to see it someday on the island.

Before moving to St. Thomas, we visited for 10 days. Found a condo privately owned which saved us so much money! It was 2 stories, 2 bathrooms and had a kitchen. We shared costs with our best friends, which made it even more affordable. There are ways to save, you just have to do some homework before.

Thanks for the original post made. Grew up in northwest Indiana and remember those last gloomy days of winter trying to roll away and anxious for the spring to begin. It's not the easiest of time. Did that way too long! Listened to Buffett, listened to the lyrics, followed him like a 19 year old gro...

When I first heard of the loss of Amy and TC, my first thought was "maybe he's downscaling" to help with the cost of putting on a show. And just maybe this will help with the cost of tickets. Silly me! When I go to a show, I don't go for just Jimmy. I enjoy the whole experience. The one th...

The year License to Chill came out, I saw Jimmy play 3 times. It was a very different show. Most people did indeed sit, but boy oh boy, they all got up wearing their cowboy hats for the new songs. It was weird. They all looked stunned when us ole-timers knew all the words to the rest of the tunes pl...

Bowles - so sorry you got screwed. When in need for extra tickets, just go to the lot parties where the real buffett fans are, and you'll score at face value or less.

I hope your wife is doing ok. Sounds like she has a wonderful loving family to care for her.

If you could invite Jimmy and Jane over for dinner, what would you cook? I'd prepare swordfish or lobster, twice baked potatoes, asparagus, and a house salad. A good bottle of wine to compliment the fish. Would you have it catered or do it yourself? Do it myself! What do you think Jimmy would enjoy ...
