I'm sorry he died. My heart goes out to those kids. But, if I NEVER hear his name again, it will be too soon.

+1 on that as well. About 1/4 of the songs in this year's setlist are already cover songs...he doesn't need another.Wino you know wrote:At the risk of getting my ears reamed by some of the high horse riders,TropicalTroubador wrote:I'm thinkin' that "none of the above" wouldn't break my heart...

How about another "Jimmy Buffett" song, or do we need to start calling it the Jimmy Buffett/CSNY/Steve Goodman/Beetles/Van Morrison/Jesse Winchester/Rodney Crowell/John Prine/Gordon Lightfoot/Warren Zevon/John Hiatt/Emmy Lou Harris/Jerry Garcia/Bruce Springstein/Alan Jackson/Fred Neil/Johnny Cash/Dave Matthews/Jack Johnson/Michael Jackson concert?
Did I miss any? I am sure I have only touched the tip of the iceberg.
I would however take any Michael Jackson song over "Yellow Submarine".

OK, but I am putting a lot of trust in you. So far, it sounds and smells like a terd squeezing its way through my headphones.

Oh, you'll enjoy it.
Especially when you see how much the band-John Lovell in particular-enjoys doing it. It's the most animated I've seen him in over 14 years.

Re: Which MJ song should Jimmy cover this tour?
I was thinking about this thread on the way home from work yesterday and I thought a non MJ cover the Jimmy should do is "The Endless Summer" by The Sandals. Keeps the theme with his surfing guy image

I uber agree with you on that. This seems like going longer than the presidential campaign.East Texas Parrothead wrote:I'm sorry he died. My heart goes out to those kids. But, if I NEVER hear his name again, it will be too soon.
