Just a guess... but I dont think SYKBH, MMIM, BBB&B are albums Jimmy is featuring.... Those songs are gonna be played anyway...
I was actually being a bit facetious. People always gripe about having to hear songs from SYKBH or rather, not hearing many of his other great songs that could be done in place of SYKBH. I think we all have many favorites we'd like to hear in place of some songs from SYKBH or other staples he does nearly every show (Brown eyed girl, Southern cross).

But what would a Buffett concert be without CIP, Fins, & Margaritaville? I love to hear 'em all but would like to hear a few less from SYKBH and more of some of the older songs that rarely if ever get played anymore like Migration, Door#3, Manana, I Have Found Me a Home, God's Own Drunk, The Captain and the Kid, Life Is Just a Tire Swing, Nautical Wheelers, Banana Republics (OK this was done often last year), Landfall, My Head Hurts My Feet Stink and I Don't Love Jesus, Kick It in Second Wind, This Hotel Room, Cowboy in the Jungle, Dreamsicle, Growing Older But Not Up, Honey Do, We Are the People Our Parents Warned Us About, Twelve Volt Man, Distantly in Love, That's What Living Is to Me, Lone Palm, Jimmy Dreams, and Far Side Of The World just mention a few.

The only other solution to the this problem would be for Jimmy to play 32-35 songs instead of 25-27.

A few years ago Pearl Jam played 3 nights at the Tweeter Center in Mansfield within a 10 day stretch and prior to starting announced that they would try to play all the songs "in their current catalog" (i.e. ones that they normally play - omitting only the really obscure ones) during those 3 shows without repeats. They wound up playing nearly 100 songs & I don't think they repeated more than a couple, if any. To get them all in, for their 3rd show they had a special "pre-concert" acoustic set of a dozen songs they squeezed in to complete the catalog. When all was said & done there were 2 or 3 songs that some people felt should've been played but weren't and that was it.

Wouldn't be awesome if Jimmy would do this? Of course, he would need around 6 shows to get most of them in. :D :D :D Just a suggestion.
For years I've been plugged into blenders and songs.
