The Toronto Star has an interview with Jimmy: "The complicated uncomplicated life of Jimmy Buffett"
He does that job at his own pace, performing only about 25 shows a year. He plays the Molson Amphitheatre Wednesday night. "I never thought I’d be doing this in my 60s," he said.
Of course, Buffett encouraged them shamelessly. Parrothead-related business and merchandise generate revenue in the tens of millions every year, helping make Buffett one of the wealthiest music stars in the world.
"I’ve been lucky enough to be able to combine a creative work ethic with a lot of luck," he said. "This was not my plan. I never cared about security of longevity."
But Buffett seems to find treasure at the end of every adventure, except perhaps in the movie business and on the musical stage, where, he admitted, he flopped.
