What if the hokey pokey is really what it's all about?

All Night Long is the only solo song by Lionel that I really like (otherwise not a huge fan). Buffett's cover of it in 2012 was absolutely perfect- it fit so well with the atmosphere of that night at Great Woods and the theme of the tour!

Here's a song Jimmy covered a long, long time ago (1992) that should be brought back: Rivers of Babylon. It would be great to hear Nadirah Shakoor perform that song one more time between now and whenever he eventually stops touring. Boney M's version is the best.

Since we recently lost Jerry Jeff Walker and he was JB's buddy, how about a Parrot Head version of Up Against the Wall Redneck Mothers? As long as we are having a tribute segment I would vote for Take It Easy and/or Gypsies in the Palace. Another suggestion Dancing in the Moonlight (just a suggestion).

M is for Margaritas
O is for Oyster Blenders
T is for Tequila
H is for Heinz 57
E is for Envy (do not Envy your neighbor's wife's Margarita)
R is for Reefer (Coral that is)
