Your right, don't go to Cincy where the whole parrot head phenomenon started!
He should do more shows in Ohio, he sold out his shows here before anywhere else!

apparently there are better fishing spots and baseball towns.
the hit and run is as good as any religion around this time of year . . .
EVERYONE one Eastcoast knows the US stops at the Mississippi, just watch the weatherguys. They pinpoint the weather in Dolgville, NY down to what time the fifteenth rain drop will fall....but when they get on the West side of the mighty Miss? Yah, some kind of cloud stuff over the West, a new system kind of over here doing something, but on Thursday that system will bring snow to Dolgille, NY BOY you had better bundle up @ 5:18 when it hits.

Da*m East coast bias
Wait, there is land after the Mississippi?
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.
Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

I beg to differ. Television markets are not based on population. I am in media production. I just got through producing a commercial this morning. Houston, TX is the 4th largest city in the US, but our TV market doesn't even make the top 10. In population, our metro area dwarfs Atlanta, Detroit, and Philadelphia. But our media market is lackluster. As a result I can run tv spots on Oprah in the afternoon for 1/2 the rate as I can run on Oprah in San Francisco.
Yep I also Beg To Differ.. If I understand it right there is a mix of things
that makeup the "Market Size"
Jimmy spends alot of time out here in Nantucket and the Vineyard. Alot. Look at half the letters he writes fan like in Salty Piece of Land or the current Coconut Telegraph . . . he signs them from the Vineyard or Cape Cod or Nantucket or off the coast of Maine. He knows the people here. We know him. There is a great sailing and beach culture out here. So, yeah, hate to say it - but he does like us better. Move.
seems like the typical smug east coaster comment to me. i can understand the sailing and beach culture, but the other coast has one just as strong. also its not hustle bustle out in the west, much more island time. i think you make a good point, it just seems like a pretty childish way of putting it. i think its remarks like these that keep me AWAY from the eastern part of the country
If I had it all to do over again, I'd just get myself drunk and I'd jump right back in...

sure you do, but for whatever reason, JB seems to prefer to spend much of his summertime in the Northeast. nothing more than personal preference on his part, I figure....

IMVHO - folks east of the Mississippi, and the CA coast are the lucky ones with shows, and everyone should remember that. West of the Mississippi to CA, don't get visited often, nor do we get CIP's or M'Villes..

Does anyone think that maybe Jane is in around Manhattan and LI in the warm weather months.
Just a thought. Of course, I never see them photographed together!
Just maybe an occassional Charity Benefit!

Just as well, it's already too crowded here. We don't need another tourist who can't figure out how to use a revolving door. (that was a joke for the thin-skinned among us)
again this applies.. shut the ***** up if you don't like it, many people drive hours and hours or fly wherever it takes to see Jimmy and pay whatever he asks and if you aren't willing, GREAT, we'll buy your seat but again just shut the ***** up.
