Anyone remember Jim's on BPK? I'm probably dating myself, though. I used to love that place.

Mangrove Mama's is a nice getaway if you are in KW.

Starlake. Closer than Alpine Valley, too.

I'm not buying it because: 1. I buy JB albums to hear JB, not duets with other stars who also want to play the cross-over game. 2. I don't like country, and clearly the vast majority of this music is country 3. I don't blindly buy everything anyone produces, just because I'm a phan. No, you don't h...

I got tix to Starlake on ebay last year. The seller spelled Buffett's name wrong, so the bidding was actually quite low (note: you can find bargains with misspelled listings, b/c most people don't check all the spellings). The guy I bought the tix from lived about 10 min away from me, and the exchan...

For lunch, I would like some fresh seafood. My girlfriend doesn't eat seafood, so the place would need to also have other menu items such as burgers or something. I would like some fried oysters and shrimp if they're good. I am limited to something within walking distance of Mallory Square. Any sug...

I am probably in the minority, but I will never buy any of this Margaritaville crap...be it shrimp, tequila, or Margarita mix. There is a Jimmy Buffett that I like...and the mass marketing Jimmy Buffett is the one I just can't follow. It is his perogative to market himself all he wants....I'm just n...

The pre-concert party at Starlake is insane. They generally open the gates about 1-ish, so it is an all day party. The cops are way cool....as long as you are not blocking the lane with some huge tent or something, it is pretty much anything goes. One suggestion: bring your own TP, as the stuff in t...

I have been to Key West a few times (heading there again tomorrow for a week with the family!! :D ) and we stay on base. It is a LOT cheaper... you have the choice of townhouses or the trailers (they used to be on White street but moved them back on Trumbo a few years back). Since the closing of Ro...

When you get down here, if you're driving, take a stop at any gas station or the Chamber of Commerce next to the Subway in Key Largo. Look for a monthly publication called Time Out. There are the usual year round, money sucking things to do to say you followed the herd. Time Out is a local thing th...

Start at the Atlantic end of Duval and have one drink in every bar on the way down to the Gulf end.

Not sure you can do that in 7 hours, but it would be a valiant effort.

Ya shoulda ventured up to the lawn, we coulda helped you out

I was on the lawn....was that you?

Me and a group of wild Parrotheads (my friend) were in the 19th row at Tues night's show in Denver. Great show, but not the point of this post. This was my 8th show and I have never had such good seats before. Also, being in further out sections of venues, I have never seen a problem with sparking ...

We live on one of the nicest beaches so the beach is not a big deal. We may do part of the time in key west and part of the time somewhere else on the way. I know about tourist stuff and tourist prices, as I said we live on the beach. That's why I'm posting. Hoping to get somebody who lives close o...

I want to take my 3 teens for 5 days to Key West in early June. Any suggestions on places to stay? I don't want to break the bank on the trip. If hotel is alot cheaper we would stay there. If we can save some food money by getting a condo/cottage with kitchen we would do that. Once there any tips. ...

Thanks to all for the info on the parking. Does anyone know if it's paved lot or grass? I have a pop up shelter for this year and want to bring the right stuff to anchor it down. You can safely presume that you will be in gravel. Make sure that you don't block the lane, cause the cops go through th...

Those aren't bad!!

ya the first time i got through i got sec. 9 row HH and I didn't think that was worth the extra $, so I tried again.

I did not have the balls to try again

I got sec 7...row JJ....good news/bad news, but better than nothing....

Man, this whole process is just insane....

Sold out in 9 minutes...amazing....

Tailgating at Starlake is an awesome experience.

Tickets will sell out in about 10 minutes, like last year and the year before and the year before.....however, I always see people selling at the venue.
