Didja hear it? He's out fishing and he's bored, so he calls his radio statin and gets a little chat, plugs a few events, sounding really mellow. And at the end he requested Carrie by Joni Mitchel. More Canadian Content!! Yay Jimmy!

Yeah, also heard him say that he wont be touring over the summer so he can spend time with his kids before they go to boarding school. Said tour will start in April but didnt say where.

Which kids are going to boarding school? Surely not Savannah. Sarah and Cameron, I imagine?
Too bad he's taking the summer off though. But wait - come to think of it, last year when I saw him in Toronto and Pittsburgh, both dates were in June. So maybe he'll do a run of shows in April, another run in June, and then again in September?
That would give the rumoured June 8 show in Pittsburgh a stronger possibility of being accurate.

They're going to replay it during the first part of tonight's Buffett Buffet.
Did you hear him say he's going to Jamaica and that Little Feat are playing there...think he'll be at their show?
did I hear correctly?

I caught the tail end of JB's call-in, but did Jimmy say that he will one day get to a point where he will just release a CD and a DVD and that will be it, and it is getting close to that? Did he mean instead of touring?
Or was it the wine talking?

Ain't that somethin'! ! I was shocked when I heard my name. I did email RM to apologize that I didnt know Miles' show was live. I also put in a request for a concert in Orlando. I can only hope!!

In 2001, Jimmy said he was "taking the summer off." What that meant was dates in late May and early June and then none until late August, only a few weeks off from last year.
I predict East Coast in May-June and Mid West in August September with a West Coast run in Oct/Nov.
But who knows...

God I hope not... Let's get things back on track with a couple of shows over Labor Day weekend at Great Woods. Enough foolin' around already!! It's been two years.
