why? why? why? in this day and age, why would a artist with a fan base as large as jimmy's fail to put out a FULL length dvd? i just don't understand it. i really, really don't. it makes absolutely no sense. i know he is a business man and as good as he is, how can he or his people not see what a tremendous opportunity that he is missing here. we push every cd he does up the charts, do they think we wouldn't do the same for a FULL length dvd? GOD, how i would love to sit back on my couch, push play after selecting the DTS option on the menu of a FULL length dvd, turn up the 5.1 surround receiver, having made sure the sub is adjusted just right, lean way back into the cushions, hoist my modelo especial, while tasting the lime juice that is still around the edge and look like the guy in the old MAXWELL tape poster who is listening to music thats hitting him like exhaust from a jet thats taking off! WHEN jimmy? WHEN?

I just keep pulling out my Laser Disc of Live By The Bay and enjoying it over and over.

I'm with you on hoping there is a full length show on DVD. Maybe tonight in Cincy??!! :)

Mailboat arrived with my "Live from Hawaii" CD and DVD........


Little disappointed in the "lack of excitement" on the CD... I thought the Live in Cincinnati was the best of the of the 5.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the Buffett/Jackson/Strait Dallas show DVD before Christmas.

I can't believe I went and ordered this online. Kind of overpriced (20.00 including shipping and handling? Can't blame the RIAA on this one) but what the heck. Hope to have it by next week.

I finally got mine and I love it.
Sure it would be great to have a full
length DVD, but I am happy to at
least have this.
I have noticed that Jimmy seems to have
a few senior moments and mentions that
it is Thurs. night when it really was Wed.

All in all it sure makes me wish that
I had been able to go to these shows :P

Just go back a couple pages.......

The first part shows outriggers that say WAKIKI

It shows shots of people on the beach and surfing.

They show shots that look like Honolulu...city shots of tall buildings.
There's an outrigger in the ocean, loaded with folks all padding.

They show some beautiful lighthouse shots.

While playing One Particular Harbour they show sound check and shots of band members and folks walking in to the show.

They show the Shell. Then a beautiful sunset and the lighted marquee saying
THE PARTY OF THE YEAR...Jimmy Buffett!!

There is a beautiful tropical stage set.

Beginning has the drummers and the dancers. You know the one they've been doing to open the concerts... The Reeferette dancing girls really move.

There is a guy twirling fire. Boy, he is quite impressive...what a cute little skort :)

Aloha Hawaii...Jimmy has on a red shirt with tropical print pockets and back. Barefoot...

Great Heart...

Amy has a great shot at one point with a winning smile.

There is a really serious shot of Doyle...so intent

Great close-up of Mac. The girls have on floral print dresses and the band has on their off white with coral tiki shirts. Good shots of all the band.

Jimmy tries to booger down with the dancers...it is funny. He was so loose.

He is playing blue guitar with blue tiki guitar strap.

Introduces Polynesian love song...
Next shot with his uke, he has a beautiful plumeria lei on.
There is a prop that says Tiki Bar Is Open behind Nadirah...she has a great smile while
Jimmy says...."UH OH, The fleets in" Sailors are on the stage dancing with Jules...
they have a conga line going.


Tina and Mike both have their ukes swaying to the music.


Why Don't We Get Drunk...shows great shots of the crowd...they are sitting
but then stand up!! :)

Jimmy notices then that they have marines in the conga line.

Hawaiian Style...Jimmy does a little wave over his head.
Then the crowd is shown swaying overhead too.

At the end of song Jimmy goes over to shake hands with some of the military guys.

Henry Kopono comes out. Kopono is looking great..having fun. He wears a cool Tiki shirt.
and blue jeans.

Wooooooo hooooooooo.
I really love this version of Volcano
Roger is so laid back with his tiki sleeveless T-shirt.

The fire twirler comes out again with two batons...with the dancers.

This DVD is done BEAUTIFULLY!

After the show they talked to people in the crowd. One guy says he was at Vegas, Anaheim and Hawaii. Someone says they came all the way from Chicago. Some very appreciative comments...

"Jimmy Rocked."

"Come back...we love you."

I don't know who the guys are but they sing Tiny Bubbles in a van with a uke, while they show shots of Jimmy surfing. He has on a great floral shirt.

Hey just watching this again tonight and noticed something interesting....

During 'Volcano' Peter Mayer starts with a darker brownish colored guitar, switches to a blue and white guitar mid-way through the song, and then ends with the original guitar.

How did he do it? So fast we didn't even see the change!!!! :D
