Jimmy Performs in Newport RI

Jimmy Buffett and most of the Coral Reefer Band performed at the Newport Folk Festival at Fort Adams State Park in Newport RI today. The Set List and comments are now available.

The set list was similar to others from the 2008 tour. One notable addition was “Elvis Presley Blues” with Gillian Welch and David Rawlings backing up Jimmy on vocals. The song was last performed live back on 11/3/07 in Tampa. Jimmy ended the show with a cover of Bob Dylan’s “Blowin’ in the Wind” (not known if Jimmy has previously performed it live).


Some photos are now available in the Photo Gallery (thanks to Joyce D and other for passing them along)
