In 1998 he played the Garden in February and Jones Beach in the summer. Two years ago he played Jones Beach at the end of June and the Garden in mid-September. It's not out of the question to do both venues again.
You know, I originally wrote "I think Larry pointed out...." but I didn't want you to be thrown under the bus if I had been wrong. :lol: :lol:

At the Jerry Jeff show at Gruene Hall Sunday night I was standing right at the side of the stage. She was a few feet in front of me dancing up a storm. When Jerry Jeff did Trashy Women, she hopped up on the corner of the stage and kept dancing. At the end of the song I went over to her and said "I mean this in the nicest possible sense, but can I get a picture with a Trashy Texas Woman?" She was putty in my hands. [smilie=pimp.gif] 8) :lol:

Today the answer would be yes. In 2 1/2 months, who knows.

Jones Beach Tour Date Added
April 1st, 2008 ·

We have received word that Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band will play the Nikon at Jones Beach Theater in Wantagh, New York on Thursday, August 28th.
Is this fo' real?? :o That's a MEAN April Fool's Joke!

It better not be a joke - I don't find it very funny... :cry:
IF this is true, it's gonna be a heck of a road trip. A/C-Sunday, Jones Beach-Thursday, Nissan-Saturday, Nissan-Monday, Great Woods- Thursday, Great Woods- Saturday. Plus various shows by Reefers & others in between...rehab-Monday :o :D

He hasn't done 2 shows at Jones Beach since 1993. If it was one of those 20,000-25,000 capacity outdoor venues, maybe, but it only seats about 14,000 so I don't see him doing 2 shows there again.

I was asked by the webmaster at the site that listed the info to verify if I had found the same info. Afterall I did give them the last 2 Cali dates. He was concerned that this could be a April fools prank. I haven't seen it on the "hidden" links yet. I'm not saying that it's not true, I'm just saying that I can't confirm or deny the Jones Beach show at this point.

That would really be a shitty April Fools prank. FWIW - ************.com sent out an email announcing 8/26 at Jones Beach.

...strictly for the sake of accuracy, Mr Buffett did TWO shows at MSG in 2007, on 9/18 and 9/20....I know, I made both, with a Mac concert in between...sweet!!

...but I agree, both MSG and JB are possible...even likely. And Thurs 8/28 would fit his usual Tues/Thurs/Sat pattern....

Well seeing as how I now have tickets to MSG on June 12 and AC on Aug 24, not sure how I feel about there being a Jone Beach Show...which is where I really wanted to be to begin with!

As they say, timing is everything!

Me too . . . I have tickets for AC and am taking off that following Monday. Taking off the Friday in that same week, or Thursday for the tailgate, just won't be feasible.

Yeah, I hear you. Just take a 1/2 day, get there around 2 or 3. Not as good as all day, but better than nothing.

What a way to end the summer if this is true. Jones Beach, and then GW on the 6th.
