Re: Who's going to West Palm Beach, April 26, 2014?

Premier parking ticket arrived yesterday. They were postmarked 4/15. Tickets printed out, parking ticket in hand, all we need now is a show, week from today. Getting excited! I'm on spring break currently. The Buffett show will culminate the break for me. What a great culmination! Fins Up! Cap'n Bobby

Re: Who's going to West Palm Beach, April 26, 2014?

Actually, JB has covered the Boss. I believe it was the Year of Still Here tour that toward the end of the Chicago show JB covered "Glory Days." Like Larry, I don't go to a Buffett show hoping to hear a Springsteen cover.

If you click on the link above and then on the "Progress" link, the photos accurately represent the current state of construction. Opening in 492 days.

Re: I think Jimmy desperately needs...

I too miss Fingers. (I'm not sure I like the way that sounds.) Adding a harmonica player is worth considering. I personally wouldn't do it, fearing that it would take away from Peter Mayer's guitar work and Doyle's steel guitar work.

Re: Who's going to West Palm Beach, April 26, 2014?

With the passing of Jesse Winchester this week, I have a feeling that JB will be adding a Jesse Winchester song to this leg of the tour. "I Waive Bye Bye" would make a lot of sense.

Have a good weekend!

If you go to margaritavillehollywoodbeachresort.com and click on the "Progress" link, the photographs pretty accurately depict where the construction is.

Re: Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort w/ Link

Got off work early today and dropped by, for the first time, Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort. Coming along nicely. 5 or 6 floors have been built, a concrete structure. A lot of construction activity--whistles blowing, hammering, yelling. Beautiful view of the ocean, emerald green water close t...

Re: Florida Lottery Margaritaville Scratch Off

If this is for real, this is an example of the commercialism that, for me, cheapens the music.

I am under the impression that the West Palm Beach Parrothead Club will host a preconcert party. Assuming that I'm right, you could contact them directly for info. Their website is Parrot Heads for the Palm Beaches.

Re: Who's going to West Palm Beach, April 26, 2014?

The show is one month from today. It's nice to have it on the horizon. It's been a little over a year since I've seen JB, at the BB&T Center in Fort Lauderdale for Loungin'. Glad he's playing at Cruzan this time; would rather see him outdoors, and I think the energy--his and the crowd's--is bett...

Re: Who's going to West Palm Beach, April 26, 2014?

We are one month eight days from the show, so maybe it's time to reflect on what songs we'd like to hear. Personally, I'd like to hear more songs from the new album. JB hasn't been playing many of them, only a few each concert. Since this is the South Florida show, I'd like to hear "Earl's Dead...
