The party is slated to start at 7. I believe Caribbean Blues is set to start at 9 - you can call Kelly's to confirm.

The band use to be Pirates of Detroit and they play a TON of different music - JB tunes, original tropical as well as some by other TropRock bands.

Especially Ticketmaster and the management of JB's tickets. And we may be beating a dead horse, but at least w...

Okay BSS you asked: "I first ask how ticket scalping is different than a car brokering ? Car brokering happens in every state in the US and we are talking a lot more $ than a Jimmy Buffett ticket. If someone could explain that...I might start reconsidering my position on scalping. There are mid...

Mr. Palmer just wanted to take a moment to thank you for your posts. You will note that Mr. Anon never bothered to answer my direct "did I meet you in the north or in the south" and avoided others, yet he claims to have met me. Described my hat correctly, but I have posted here before that...

Anon last said: Congrats to you old hippy! I'm sure you are laughing your ass off because you got everyone all stirred up by your cause. Well I would say thank you, but it not just MY cause, it is not just a Buffett fan cause, ticket scalping is wrong, albeit it has been around almost as long as pro...

Well with alot of other things taking precedence lately, UFOTTS has kinda slacked off of pushing the legislators for a nation wide ban on ticket scalping. But I can tell you that Ticketmaster has and continues to sell volumes to scalpers before the tickets go on sale to the public and the venues are...
