Get in contact with Topless, The Balcony Girls or SMLCHNG and plan a phlocking, (party) and invite all the BN'ers to come to Germany to do some Parrott Head Evangelism. R2 and RagtopW will help you pick out the beer to serve :P
Hummmm, Buffett Missionaries (or Margaritaville Missionaries). I think maybe you've hit on something!

I'd bet most in Germany have never heard of the guy or his music...so first it's about giving them exposure to JB's music for them to decide whether or not they like it. As many of the lyrics contain subtleties, his stuff is probably a bit tougher for someone to really "get it" in a second language.

So helping people along is a great idea...e.g. the Buffett-themed party with people dressing up and playing the music is great, and including some games (e.g. pin-the-fin-on-the-shark) to help folks understand some of the songs would help, too.

Just in case the Germans don't know what e.g means.....
