I just have to say, this was the perfect day to make this announcement. We have 2-3 inches of that white stuff on the ground and an icy mix falling and Jimmy makes a promise of sunnier, warmer, happier time in the not too distant future. Thank You Jimmy, for brightening an awful day!

Jimmy Buffett
June 14th
Citizens Bank Park (Philadelphia, PA)


Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band are bringing the summer’s
biggest beach party to Citizens Bank Park, home of the Philadelphia
Phillies, for one unforgettable night on Saturday, June 14th, as part
of
Jimmy Buffett’s “The Year of Still Here” Tour 2008. Tickets will
go on
sale exclusively through ComcastTIX on Monday, March 10th at 10am.
There
is a six ticket limit per customer.

“Jimmy Buffett hit a home run when he christened the concert stage at

Citizens Bank Park in 2005,” said Phillies President David
Montgomery.
“His shows have enjoyed tremendous popularity and we’re thrilled to
once
again host Jimmy Buffett at Citizens Bank Park.”

Jimmy’s newest release, Live In Anguilla, a three disc CD/DVD set on
Mailboat Records, lets you feel what a few thousand fans got to
experience last March on the Caribbean island of Anguilla. A Jimmy
Buffett concert on a tropical island...just walk down the beach for a
once-in-a-lifetime intimate performance. The set includes 30 songs,
everyone's favorites, plus some special in-concert rarities.

And scheduled for release this summer is Jimmy's newest book Swine Not?

(Little, Brown and Company), a colorful novel about a Southern family
determined to hide their pet pig in a fancy four-star hotel in New York

City. Jimmy is one of only nine authors in the history of the New York

Times Bestseller List to have reached #1 on both their fiction and
non-fiction lists.

Tickets will be available exclusively through ComcastTIX at
1-800-298-4200, on line at ComcastTIX.com or in person at the Wachovia
Center box office beginning on Monday, March 10th at 10am.

I'm in FL on 3/10 with Mom, taking care of my aunt... what's the chance I can hide out somewhere in my aunt's condo with a laptop at 10:00 am - probably hopeless! :-?
