Jimmy is Sammy Hagar's "Godfather"

Post by Wildh2oskier »

According to an article in todays USA Today

http://www.usatoday.com/life/books/news ... 6_ST_N.htm

Giving back

It was Kari who planted a seed when she pointed out how Jimmy Buffett had created an empire out of his island life. "She took me to a show of his, and I was blown away," Hagar says. "Jimmy is now the godfather to me. I kiss his ring whenever I see him."
Interesting how Jimmy's influence on Sammy Hagar, Kid Rock and other non Buffettesque non country acts has risen to the top in the last few years.

Its got to be the secret power of the sacred parrot I'm telling you.

I like Sammy's music and shows. I kinda consider it Jimmy on speed sometimes. His shows are full of energy and I sat on stage a few times for the show which is a great time. Sammy does give Jimmy props in his song "sailing". Enjoy!
