Yes, I am a parrothead through and through. My license plate on my motorcycle is FNS UP, only allowed 5 spaces. I have seen Jimmy about 30+ times and have traveled to St Barth's to see him back in 1999. Have stopped going recently, since I refuse to pay the service charges on tickets.

Best Regards,
Norm

I'm still looking for that One Particular Harbor. I hear it's so far, but yet so near...

Always love hearing a Jimmy Buffett song while sitting outside in the summer while having a cold beer.  I went to a concert 4 years ago with DW.  It was an awesome time.

We have our tickets to see him again at the end of August, always a great time and great party.

Not me so much as one of my Navy buds.  He's a serious Parrothead.  His car plate is SNIFINS.  Motorcycle plate SSN RO (submarine reactor operator).

If you need help with SNIFINS, think about the words in the song.

Interesting that I should stumble upon this...

DH and I have always been fans, but haven't yet gotten the chance to see Jimmy live.

My parents have recently discovered Jimmy (via the local library's cd collection); my Dad called me up saying he'd love to go see him.

I'd love to take my parents, or send them by themselves to a show. 

Yet, I'm not sure what to expect.  Any advice would be appreciated!

I love some Buffett.  I just wish they still played Buffett as the entrance video plays for the Dolphins.  ;D

Expect Lots of Fun. Everybody wears flip flops, bright Hawaiian style shirts and shorts, Lots of palm trees, parrots and cocktail hats. These are serious Parrotheads.

We were camping in Key Largo Labor Day weekend in the early '80s when Key West "seceded" from the Union. Any Floridians remember that?  Awful time getting back to the mainland wih traffic tied up while the Feds checked all vehicles for immigration purposes!

I have only been to one Jimmy Buffett concert and it was a blast!! My wife and I took 1/2 days at work.....for a concert that started at like 7 or something.  Tailgating.  That is a unique experience at a Buffett concert.  I'd say that was 1/2 the show.

Yea, us too.  DW always saw him every year, but the ticket prices got to be too high and the one show he does in the area (Nissan Pavilion in Bristow, VA) sells out instantaniously.  Add to that the venue likes to throw people out who don't just sit and watch the show, it just wasn't worth it anymore.
