It's funny this thread has come up again! And even better because the local paper here in Raleigh, NC is having a contest to find the biggest PARROTHEAD! In 150 words (yea, right) tell us why you are the biggest parrothead, favorite Buffett ablum, favorite line from a song, and what ONE question would you ask. Mine was simple put as:
"did you ever pay the mini-mart back?"

YEAH! and WHY AIN'T NASHVILLE ON YOUR CONCERT LIST? HOW CAN YOU DO THIS TO ME? WHY IS YOUR FACE GETTING RED? WHO'S THAT BIG GUY LOOKING OVER YOUR SHOULDER, LOOKING AT ME VICIOUSLY? Why is he shuffling me out the door? Why am I on the ground?12vmanRick wrote:I'd ask him why he changed his tour schedule and cut some places out completely and why he cut some back to one when they were the places that helped him get his start LIKE ATLANTA.

If you ever need a lawyer, will you please call me cuz I'd love to work for you!
Will you please promise me that you will never stop touring?
Which is your favorite island? I would like to move there.

WDWGDAS? no, too forward
Do you love me as much as I love you? no, too desperate
Do you mind if I dance with your date? no, I don't wanna dance with Jane
Do you have room for one more on your road crew? no, probably gets that all the time
Does Charleston need a fulltime assistant, complete with husband and 2 kids? no, not realistic
Where is the best parking lot pre-game festivities? no, he told us on 6/28/03
Is there anything we, as parrotheads, can do to make you proud? no, we're doing it
Can you give me front row tickets for life? no, I entered, but lost
Can I buy you a drink? no, don't want to be accountable if he crashes
Are you as phanatic about anyone or anything, as parrotheads are about you, your music, and your lifestyle? ya that's it... that's what I wanna know.

Great question and some really great answers.
Yeah, I'd like to ask him to drop around to my cottage for a weekend or so, have a few beers, barbecue something tasty, and get out the guitars to start up the Farren Lake Fantasy Folk Festival (sure you can spell that all with PHs if you like). . . This is an idea that's been bubbling in my brain for a while. My brother's a musician (a really good one!), so he'd have to included. Jimmy and Mac, too, who is wonderful. A great Canadian banjo picker and singer-songwriter, Bob Bossin. The Mighty Popo, a great African-Canadian entertainer. And the very-famous-in-French-Canada-but-barely-recognized-in-the-rest-of-the-country Robert Charlebois, who has been rocking away in the same veins as Jimmy for about as long. Since he owns a brewery, he can bring the beer! If Jimmy doesn't already know Charlebois' "oeuvre" (body of work) he certainly should! And, Joe Bennett, too, for good measure. Wow, what a party! My lawn is big but maybe not big enough for that crowd....

Since I am moving to New Orleans in August, I would ask Jimmy about his time down there. What was some of the coolest things he ever did down there? He often compares New Orleans to Key West in APL@50, so I would like to hear more about that.
As much as I would want to ask him about touring, his music, parrotheads, I think I would be more interested in the places he has been, and favorite things he has done.

I'd ask him what his home address was because I'm coming to visit for a few months.
