For newbie PH this was where concert goers were brought on stage during the show with a chance to toss out a Buffett song to JB to see if he could remember the words. If he couldn't remember your name went in a drawing for the Grand Prize at the end of the tour, which in 1997 was a Key West vacation for 2 on New Year's Eve! Not bad.....
I miss those earlier concerts. Less polished, yes, but good times (like the numerous Walter Cronkite videos) nevertheless.....
I believe he only did it during the 97' tour.........Bfan53 wrote:Fingers Taylor played the part of Juan (can't remember the last name used) and introduced the audience members who were chosen to come on stage and try to stump Jimmy. Funny stuff......
Anyone know what tour year "Stump the El Bando" stopped being a regular part of the show?

I woulda shat my pants to hear him sing Turnabout!!!!!!! One of my all time favorites, and certainly one I have resigned myself to never hear live.Wino you know wrote:Right now I'm listening to my C.D. of the 1997 Las Vegas concert, which I was at.
The two contestants tried to stump Jimmy with "Happiness Alone" (which he didn't know) and "Turnabout", which he did know. But he gave the lady who tried to stump him with "Turnabout" the trip to Key West anyway.
He also autographed a box set for each of the two contestants.
It was a very nice concert, in which Peter Mayer did an EXCELLENT rendition of "Guantanemera."

If I'm not mistaken he didn't do Stumpo El Bando at Jones Beach because it was raining. That was 3 years before I started traveling to shows so I never got to see it.

I guess the song was One Ton Tomato. When the pharms and flipflopgirl were in NYC Wednesday, I met them for Happy Hour and then dinner. We went to the Hawaiian Tropic Zone for Happy Hour. They're having a contest, co-sponsored with something called Beach Bum Tanning Salon, to find a spokesmodel. It was the 4th of 5 preliminary contests. She was contestant #7 and was one of the 4 finalists. We didn't stay so I don't know if she won.Bfan53 wrote:Thanks Larry......and who, may I ask, is that lovely young lady in the blue bikini????LIPH wrote:Juan GuanoBfan53 wrote:Fingers Taylor played the part of Juan (can't remember the last name used) and introduced the audience members who were chosen to come on stage and try to stump Jimmy.

Thanks. And if she didn't win, well, the others must have been quite the beauties......LIPH wrote:When the pharms and flipflopgirl were in NYC Wednesday, I met them for Happy Hour and then dinner.
