Jimmy Buffett

I just saw that Jimmy Buffett will be in concert at Citizens Bank Ball Park August 25 & 27. We just saw him in Honolulu last Tuesday. Awesome show. We had such a blast. If you're a fan and like his music his concert is a must. Third time I've seen him here since 1986. His show gets better every year and seeing him in an outdoor venue is what it is all about. Have they had concerts at Citizens Bank Park yet? Also saw he'll be performing at Wrigley Field over Labor Day.

You've given me no vital information. I need to know how easy the women are at these shows. Beer, alcohol, or roofies?

Hard to tell as my 8 year old son and wife were present, but!! there was a lot of eye candy.

... I don't suppose your son had any better luck, what with his parents around ...

A few years ago, I happened to drive through the Merriweather Post Pavillion grounds the day after a Buffett concert (I was picking up tickets for another event). The place looked like a friggin' war zone.

I would like to see Jimmy perform once before I die.

My dad took us to see Buffett every year for years. Then when I was in college, I went with my friends. My dad still goes. Our wedding reception playlist included 2 Buffett songs...just for him.

I guess that's an invitaion to guess which 2 Buffet songs somebody would use?

Why don't we get Drunk (the happy couple and guess alike)
Fins (For the naive teenage cousin from Ohio who comes to the big city to be a bridesmaid).

"Come Monday" has to be one of the 2 songs

And I'm going to the Buffet show on the 25th at Citizens....Buffet concerts are a BLAST!!

Both of you are wrong.

Volcano (by way of CD)
Margaritaville (because the band played it)

Why Volcano?

I sorta thought Margarittaville, but why Volcano? Fins is a better song then Volcano...Come Monday is the 'romantic' Buffet song...and his only #1 hit.

PhillyGirl · April 26, 2005, 09:12:24 AM

Because I don't care about what was a hit or not. Volcano is a fun song that we had them play while we were eating dessert.

I hate Fins and Come Monday? We didn't need a romantic song, we already had those played. Buffett isn't my idea of "romantic". lol

Didn't say he was 'romantic'...just that Come Monday is his attempt. I just think Fins would be more fun then Volcano for the 'dance' moves involved....

I thought maybe "Cheeseburger in Paradise" would have been a good dinner selection.
