A musician friend of mine has jammed with Buckwheat Zydeco, who has jammed with Jimmy - but not at the same time, as far as I know.

Actually...my boss is the contact, I've been at meetings...but I'd never be allowed to talk to him as a fan.
That must be tough!! So as a client, what do you all call him? Mr. Buffett, Sir, Surfer dude, Jimmy?

Yeah, it was strange...I kept saying to himself...holy sh*t its Jimmy Buffett...he's a "just call me Jimmy" kind of guy.

Very surreal

As for me, I shook his hand at M'ville Vegas. Got to hang out with Charleston and some band members at M'ville Vegas as well.

And this one time, at band camp.....

Stizz, where have you been hiding?

Well just be careful your shirt doesn't catch you gambling or you'll never get to date it again....

I know Warren Buffett professionally ( he has stayed often at both hotels I've been a manager at) so that gets me pretty close....

I'll take the celeb route...

Fourteen years ago, I went out on 2 dates with (not yet famous) Denise Richards.

Denise Richards was in "National Lampoons Loaded Weapon 1" with Tim Curry.

Tim Curry was in "Congo" with Jimmy Buffett.

Me -> Denise Richards -> Tim Curry -> Jimmy Buffett.

(Or I could just say that I've gotten e-mail from Amy Lee...)
