Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band brought the Workin’ n Playin’ tour to the Gwinnett Center in Atlanta GA last night.
The set list from the show is now available. Buffett and the band played 27 songs including “Manana”, “Wonder Why We Ever Go Home” (last played October 18 2007 San Francisco CA), “Knees Of My Heart”, “The City”, and “Trying To Reason With Hurricane Season” for the final encore.
The Gwinnett Daily Post has a review of the show and tailgating photos: “Parrotheads transform Gwinnett arena into Margaritaville for Buffett concert”
After around seven hours of tailgating, the party was far from over, as eager fans packed up and made their way into the arena for the show. Inflatable beach balls could be seen bouncing to and fro in a sea of tropically clad fans, who let out a booming cheer as a barefoot Buffett took the stage.
Buffett put it best when he told the crowd it’s Tuesday night but we’re “starting the weekend early.”
The Examiner has a review of the show “A Workin’ and Playin’ Jimmy Buffett takes over Gwinnett Arena in Atlanta”
Jimmy Buffett came into a sold-out Gwinnett Arena in Duluth, Atlanta on Tuesday night and demonstrated in a two-hour set that “Workin and Playin” can be happily combined to provide a concert experience that is completely unique and thoroughly enjoyable. He has it down to a fine art, being so comfortable on stage it was apparent that he was “playin” way more than “workin”!
