Jimmy Buffett surprised about 3,500 “Parrot Head” fans with a concert on Friday during their 20th annual convention in Key West, according to the Florida Keys News Bureau.

Buffett, whose most popular songs include, “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere” with Alan Jackson and “Margaritaville,” performed with his Coral Reefer Band for more than an hour from a stage near his Margaritaville Store and Cafe on Duval Street.

“I heard I was in town,” the former Key West resident said as he walked onstage Friday, referencing one of his well-known song titles. “This is pretty cool, playing on Duval Street.”

He then played 15 songs such as “A Pirate Looks at Forty,” “Tin Cup Chalice,” Nautical Wheelers,” and “Woman Goin’ Crazy on Caroline Street,” the Florida Keys News Bureau reported.
