The Magic of the Music: The Birth of Parrot Head Nation (Part 1 of 4) – a Four-Part Series on the Time After Island Time program Produced by Paul Leslie and Jeff Pike
It was in the early part of 1989 when Scott Nickerson got the idea to start the very first Parrot Head Club–The Atlanta Parrot Head Club. Scott met so many interesting people in the parking lot before Buffett concerts that he decided he wanted to enjoy the camraderie throughout the year. On April 1, 1989 Scott and about 15 others met at Chastain Park, where so many legendary Buffett concerts had been held. This was the first Parrot Head Club meeting, the Birth of a Parrot Head Nation. Scott never dreamed of what would result 20 years later–a total of $13 million in contributions and almost 2 million volunteer hours.
