the worst setlist??

[changingchannels]

if you had to pick 1 song from each album and make a setlist exclusively of the worst jimmy buffett songs what would that setlist look like??

[chitownpirate]

'Math Suks' sucks

[RinglingRingling]

I can't get past the first two albums, because to a song, they are... THE s***

[SharkOnLand]

Down to Earth--Pick any song but "Captain and the Kid"

High Cumberland Jubilee--Probably "Death Valley Lives"

White Sport Coat--has to be WDWGDAS

Living & Dying in 3/4 Time--Probably "Brand New Country Star"

A1A--"Dallas"

CILCIA--"Miss You So Badly"

SOASOAS--probably "Fool Button"

Volcano-- tough one, I pretty much like the whole album, but I'm going with "Survive"

Coconut Telegraph--another tough one. I'm going with "The Good Fight"

Somewhere Over China--"Lip Service"

One Particular Harbour--"I Used to Have Money One Time"

Riddles in the Sand--"When the Wild Life Betrays Me"

Last Mango--"Please Bypass this Heart"

Floridays--"You'll Never Work in Dis Bidness Again"

Hot Water--"Baby's Gone Shoppin"

Off to See the Lizard--"Why the Things We Do"

Fruitcakes--"Frenchman For the Night"

Barometer Soup--"Don't Chu Know"

Banana Wind--"Mental Floss"

BHOTM--"Math Suks" (and so does spelling)

FSOTW--"What if the Hokey Pokey..."

License to Chill--"Someone I Used to Love"

Take the Weather With You--"Silver Wings"

I've left out all the live albums, soundtracks and the Christmas album....

I had a hard time with the first 2 as well

[SMLCHNG]

I can pretty much agree with SharkOnLand.

[Catch&Release]

Worst set list?

Anyone where Jimmy plays Migration or Wino and I Know....where I am not in attendance.

Otherwise, I am always happy to be in attendance.

I used to CRINGE when he played WDWGDAS...til he had a great time in St. Louis this year with getting the sign language translator to really emphasize the word screw. I'll always think of that when he plays it from now on.

Used to not really care for Margaritaville, til I was fortunate enough to be in Anguilla when Jimmy said something like "Well, it's time to plant the flag of Margaritaville here in Anguilla. Today Anguilla is Margaritaville.!"

[Wino you know]

These are the Jimmy Buffett songs I DO NOT like:

Elvis Imitators
Domino College
I Used To Have Money One Time
Cheeseburger In Paradise
Fool Button
Baby's Gone Shoppin'
Barracuda
Mental Floss
Treetop Flyer
What If the Hokey Pokey Is Really What It's All About
Conchy Tonkin'
Everybody's On the Phone
Wheel Inside the Wheel

All of his other songs I absolutely LOVE.
And considering how many hundreds of songs he's done, the fact that I only dislike 13 of them speaks volumes for what a fantastic songwriter/storyteller I think he is.

Well, as a fellow conservative minded fellow, I would hope you would add Everlasting Moon to that list. That Jimmy is a lousy tree hugging liberal! How I loathe him and his many planes . . .

[drunkpirate66]

Whats that song off of Beach House? "You Call It Running" and "Hokey Pokey" . . .

most songs off the CD actually. Pacing the Cage and Oysters and Pearls excluded.

[blowinupinmissoula]

CILCIA--"Miss You So Badly"

BOOOOOO

i think i might be a bit biased on this one though

[LIPH]

Altered Boy

Big Rig

And it isn't on any of his albums but Trippin' Billies. WTF, that's just a horrid song. May be the worst piece of s*** I've ever heard him do.

[pair8head]

I know i'm gonna get a whoopin for this but

Defying Gravity is the only one that comes to mind for me.

[The Boy Nobody Knew]

CILCIA--"Miss You So Badly"

BOOOOOO

i think i might be a bit biased on this one though

I agree with you, double boo. I'd put this on a top ten list I want to see at every show.

[RinglingRingling]

CILCIA--"Miss You So Badly"

BOOOOOO

think he's been doing this one a bit more often..

[SharkOnLand]

CILCIA--"Miss You So Badly"

BOOOOOO

i think i might be a bit biased on this one though

The only problem is that I like EVERY song on that album... so it's hard picking the "worst"...

[The Boy Nobody Knew]

CILCIA--"Miss You So Badly"

Fair enough, but I would have little problem putting it ahead of

Lovely Cruise
Biloxi
In the Shelter.

I think it is one of my favorites because on the three song arc on You had to Be There, with Wonder why and landfall, it is my favorite three song arc in the entire Buffett discography.

[Skibo]

What's wrong with Mental Floss?

Songs that collectively would ruin any set list
WDWGDAS
Cheeseburger
God's own Drunk
Math Sucks
You'll never work in this bidness again
Glory Days
Dixie Chicken
No Woman No Cry
California Dreamin'
Jailhouse Rock
Rainy Day Woman
Trippin' Billies
Werewolves of London
Any other "tribute" cover.

There are very few JB songs that I don't like

[~Hippolyte~]

I started to read this list and was ok...then saw one I love, then another, then another!!

Guess maybe I really am into ALL THINGS JIMMY!!

and you forgot to mention that you skipped the soundtrack to the musical!! Some great ones on there too...ones he's done in concert!!

But to each their own...and I agree, it is a tough assignment...don't see me doing it do ya?!?

How can you not LOVE God's Own Drunk especially from YHTBT! He rarely plays it, and I would love to hear it in Chicago.

I agree with most of the choices on this list, but not defeying gravity.

Lets see, COBO was around to make sure Jimmy's old stuff lives on. Is this thread going to turn into a reformed version of the COB where only the good songs live?

I love the old stuff as much as anyone, and I would prefer it if he played more of it, but the new stuff grows on me depending on my mood.

Have a good one!!
