Can we meet Jimmy?

[ragtopW]

The blatantly obvious is that I'm right - Jimmy does not tour through Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama anymore. What yer problem is? That was part of the whole JOKE I was making. Are you THAT serious about this s h i t?

I think Jimmy hates the Mountain west the very most..
Denver two years ago.. Boise?? never.. Salty City?? When ??

Casper?? Jimmy hasn't even played Lake Taco in a decade..


it must be the altitude..

Looks like it's time for changes in latitudes, & altitudes.

you know how it is... you get older, you need more air; and thin air isn't good for bass singers...

Get a leg up then!

Jazz Fest is not always part of touring for some acts. Jimmy doesn't play the same set list at Jazz Fest that he does for the tours. What I said was he doesn't TOUR down here anymore, the last TOUR he did through Louisiana was the 1999 winter Beach House On The Moon Tour - I thought it was in early 2000 but I checked my ticket stub. So I don't count Jazz Fest or the little shows at Marg as Jimmy TOURING through the Deep South.

Y'all are incredible!

Y'all are incredible!

You can complain about life or you can appreciate it.
It's your choice.

Sorry your unhappy with the choices JB is making in his.

Wow.. and I feel blessed..
I moved from Northern California 10 years back, I was happy with my
show a year and would have never ventured out of my comfort zone
Now after 10 years in Boise ( where Jimmy has never played)

have been blessed with trips I would never have thought of..
Denver twice, Vegas twice (and number three soon) , San Diego
Dallas, Great Woods, MOTM, LDOL and a trip back to the bay..
well two trips back to the bay..
planing a trip for Stars Fell on Alabama
and the list will grow..


I have met many great people and lifelong ( I hope) friends.


my Personal Plate Reads OFF2CJB

and although I only get three trips a year my
motto seems to be " Reading departure signs"

Y'all are incredible!

Thanks!!! We know...
it's just nice to hear.

Any ol' direction Jimmy phlows is phine with me!

I'm right there with ya on that one, PPG!

I'm not caught up in the madness to go on the road to some other town to see Jimmy - I can't do it anyway if I wanted to or not. Yeah yeah yeah life choices - that's a clever observation. Such stunning brilliance displayed. I really don't care if Jimmy ever tours again in the South, I was just merely pointing out that it's been a long time since he has and everyone has taken it way out of context, as usual, like a bunch of drive-by media. Like how he played Jazz Fest this year and that should count. Well it doesn't. It's Jazz Fest, not a tour. Or the Coastal Confessions show that will never be released by Mailboat. What makes everyone think that I went to either of those shows? Certainly not everyone on BuffettNews goes to every show that comes through their town. I wasn't around for either of them.

I usually have to use the "either I use it or I lose it" excuse for vacation to go to Stars. and last year, I ended up running out of time in the year before I ran out of vacation...

tho I have a feeling that this year, if the Tampa show is truth...

I have to agree with what the others have said, KT. Not very likely. Kinda gotta be at the right place at the right time.


Welcome to BN!

Or be with the right woman who wins the right contest!!

[JustDucky]

Stale popcorn.

[Desdamona]

Doesn't Atlanta count as the "Deep South"?
If not, better not tell the folks there...

How about TX, NC, SC, VA, AL, TN, etc?

Besides, NOLA has had a stranglehold on a lot of the best music for ages.
Buffett isn't the only good stuff out there she says as she quickly ducks for cover...

[JustDucky]

I meant to refer to, I guess, anything near I-10. Is North Carolina and all those other northern Southern states actually part of the Deep South? I don't think so. Hell, when I was in Nashville last November it felt like Michigan - dry, cold and nasty.

By the way, it's funny how the Weather Channel refers to Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Illinois as the Midwest when Louisiana is further west than Michigan but is considered the Southeast. Those northern states should be called the Mideast and the true Midwest states like Iowa, Colordado, etc...are the actual middle of the West.

New Orleans doesn't have such a strangle hold, I think that's how you put it, on music like it did before Katrina sent everyone fleeing but there is still a lot of great fantastic music. And there's a lot of good and great music and musicians in New Orleans more so than Jimmy Buffett, more so than The Rolling Stones, more so than a lot of popular artists. That's just a fact.

If I-10 is your only criteria for the "deep south", that makes for maybe a 70 mile-wide stretch from the east-bound southern shoulder to the water... granted, that means most of FL is deep south, but I gotta differ on that assessment. Once you get south of Ocala, the number of Confederate Flags flyin' goes down considerably.

ATL, go on and tell the folks there they are not the Deep South, same with folks up there in the red dirt parishes above Baton Rouge, or along the TN/MS border. SC, where the first shots in the War of Secession were fired isn't deep south? I'd take time and rethink your definition, were I in your shoes.

As for your complaining: sorry. It sounds more like you want a show in your back yard, and anything else just won't do (even tho Jimmy does appear at the NO M'ville from time to time, and did the theatre show). I'd offer to buy you a beer at the next phlocking you leave NO to attend, but I probably don't have to pack extra money for that happening, now do I?

sheeesh. stuff happens outside NO, and you can either observe it from a distance (choice) or you can observe it close up (choice). Make one, and stop complaining about the consequences of your choice.
