Security Guard frisked me and said "O.K. Pops-you can go in"

I said "POPS-THIS!" musta been the 15 ticket stubs stuck in my hat-not the grey beard and moustache!
Lotsa "NO DANCIN'" enforcement-but afterwards people tin*led everywhere in the parking lot! and broke windows, etc.
Gnashville-yuk! Meet Me in Memphis!

The frisking was a bit much at the Nashville show as was the security in general..The woman who checked me even made me move my coconuts so she could pat down every area of my body. She missed my 2 cameras and my glow stick though!! (Why are glow sticks banned anyways?)

When trying to make off with a Jimmy Buffett banner, I also encountered a very nasty Aramark representative who was obviously just there b/c he got a free ticket. To make a long story short, he said that we (parrot heads) were stupid for following Jimmy Buffett and that it was just music and not even good music at that. I was quite offended, but it doesn't really do you any good to try and talk to people like that. I just told him that he was one of those people who would never understand and I wouldn't waste my time trying to explain it to him.

Overall though it was a good time and I hope Jimmy goes to AmSouth again because that was a great venue.

Helpful hint from 25 year Parrothead:
NEVER try to explain ANYTHING to a min. wage sec. guard. You are arguing with an IDIOT and he will beat you on EXPERIENCE everytime.

Cretin probably quit listening to country when Porter left Dolly..

Next year-MEMPHIS! (yeah..if Tyson doesnt eat the Pyramid)
