I asked Siri to play "Fish p***" and she said "sorry, I don't know how to respond to that." Then I tried, "Play Fish p*** by Jimmy Buffett." Got the same response. Once I got the song on, by doing it manually, I asked Siri was song was playing. She answered "Fish p...

It was about 5:30 a.m. in the morning. My wife had gotten up before me and went downstairs to make us coffee. About 3 minutes later I heard her yell, "Oh my God." She came back up the stairs with an obvious sense of urgency that startled me. In all honesty, I thought she was going to say s...

They are now playing live versions of the songs. Freaking awesome idea!

Not that anyone will care, but I did this. I did not look at the list before listening and posting here, except i did have to look up #52 because somehow the Universe was nice enough to me that I missed it in real time and did not subject me to the disappointment that I would have felt. Please note ...

Anyone keeping track? I can't listen all day because I have to work. Would be awesome to see the list.

So last week, we sold our house of 22 years. The day after the closing, my my wife and our two daughters got on a plane to move to California. Our older daughter is already in college out there and our younger daughter starts college this week. I am staying behind for two months to tidy things up wi...

Actually, I am going to buy a few tickets to each show and donate them to charity. That way they do not go to waste.

I want to support all members of the band, if for no other reason to show my eternal gratitude for each and every contribution they have made to the lifetime worth of memories and smiles I have.

So, even though I cannot attend any of the concerts, I am going to buy a ticket to each one.

I would just like to note that I do not believe that there any "bad" Buffett songs. I will take anything he wrote, covered or performed over any other song played by anyone else, anytime anywhere. I think this thread acknowledges that and really asks, what is not as good as his other stuff.

I rarely listen to it. When I do, I still get a little emotional. Not sure what a therapist would say about that, but I don't really care. I just hung a painting in my office of Buffett that I commissioned. Everyone grieving process is going to be different, and thank goodness for this community!

One of the things I am finding now is that I am often reminding myself of where I was when I first heard an album. It is great to be able to recall a chapter in my life and associate it with his music. The funny thing is, if you said, "where were you when ______ album came out?" I probably...

Just because I or anyone else posts about something that can be construed as negative about JB does not mean that I or anyone else have any less respect or love for him, or don't miss him terribly. Especially today as we enter the unofficial start of our first summer with him. If this wonderful comm...

Math Sucks is excellent creative writing! My kids loved it when they were in elementary school.

Big Rig

I will be ordering all of them so that I can have an excuse to buy a record player.

I find myself listening to songs that I often skipped over. The other day I heard Whoop de Doo. I barely even knew the words. And now I have "A Pirate Looks at Fifty" on my bedside table. I am reading a few pages each morning and sometimes underline certain sentences. I read that Savannah ...

Any idea if liner notes will be included?

I really hope someone who attends can write up a post concert summary of the show. Cannot believe it is not being broadcasted on RM. A total travesty.

Curious as to what the setlist was. I would think it would be awesome. With some great stories thrown in.

This may sound a little weird, but I think that Don't Stop the Carnival is one of the best examples of his writing ability. If you never read the book you really should. He made each of those characters come alive. It is impressive. And Barometer Soup is also extremely well written. He was a story t...
