Yeah, and Bonzo texts me a picture of his banana every Saturday night.jbfinscj wrote:GET OUT!!!!! Bonzo is my friend, he sends us a Christmas banana every year. How dare you question that damn dirty apes existence.SeattleParrotHead wrote:No intent to put anyone down....
I thought, since I was talking to a make believe chimp, people would catch the irony in my voice.
I guess not.
Now I'm really worried.... are you sure that's Bonzo's banana? You do know who his alter-ego is, right?FunkHouse9 wrote:Yeah, and Bonzo texts me a picture of his banana every Saturday night.

Can you believe these people think they're actually talking to Jimmy?
I guess nobody, not Jimmy nor anyone in his camp, would ever actually bother with anything that goes on here. Why would they? I suppose that is really pathetic to think that could happen. Nevermind that we know that at least one of the Reefers posts on here occasionally, as recently as this morning.
Oh..... and there's one other reason to maybe just have one iota of faith....
Yes Virginia, there is a Jimmy Buffett...
I had been sent a pretty clear indication online about 5pm that day that it was going to happen. Then a photo of the setlist had leaked to BN around showtime and made it around to several BN'ers in the crowd. Fortunately, I don't have a smartphone, so I wasn't online to see any of it and nobody texted or called to spill the beans, so I was completely surprised when it happened. My buddy had left to go to the bathroom at the encore break and never found his way back. I was in the middle of the lawn all alone. It was pretty blurry because I got kind of teary eyed. How I felt in that moment is so hard to explain. I was overwhelmed. I wish all of the BN people there could have been in one spot to sing along and enjoy the moment together.Bicycle Bill wrote:I would have loved to have been there, if only to see the expression on your face.

And BTW, the name should be in UPPER CASE.
