"Singer Jimmy Buffett, laughs as Michael Utley (not pictured), keyboardist for the Coral Reefer Band, answers questions during a Gaming Control Board hearing..."

I wonder if we can find a transcript of the hearing somewhere?

I wish I would have known about it earlier....I certainly would have went to the meeting to provide a first hand account of everything. :(

As I keep hearing about this I am reminded of Godfather II when Michael takes the family west to enter the casino business...lol I wonder if Jimmy is going to throw a big party in Reno? ;)

Great pictures! MAN I adore that man's wrinkles! Look at where his smiles have been! And Mr Utley is damn cute too!
