He will be missedI know he wasn't everyone's cup of tea but I think people will realize what a great songwriter and storyteller he was if one ignores the top few songs one thinks of when they think of Jimmy Buffett

Don't know how many times I saw him, middle 70s/early 80s. Living in Florida but it was guite a few.

I'd never heard of him. until the movie "Rancho Deluxe", they were the bar band. By the end of the week I had both his albums. There were only two then.

I found the full concert of Jimmy Buffett at Alpine Valley in 2019 and I'm watching it now. This was a great concert for us because we got our large group back together for the first time in years. Some of the people stopped going because kids and life getting in the way. It happens. Our group had dwindled down to three to five for a few years but we had about ten this year iirc. Alpine Valley tailgates were awesome as they open the gates at noon for an 8:00 concert and it could get kind of crazy.

So we got there and got our tailgate area set up and were just sitting around having some beverages and I saw some people nearby that I knew from social media. I have talked to these people over the years online and at other concerts so I went over to say hi. Hung out for a bit and went back to my group. They came by on their way to wander around and see the tailgating sights. They stopped to say hi to my friends and I and asked if we wanted to go with. I declined to stay and hang out with my friends. They had questions, much like you'd get when you talk about traveling to get together with friends from a cigar forum.

So later I see Jimmy with ALL painted on his arm during the show. You see, these guys were some of the group that paint the number of Buffett concerts they've been to on their arms as a badge of honor. I was wondering why in the hell Jimmy had ALL painted on his arm but I had a suspicion how it got there. The next day on his fb page it was confirmed. The group I had turned down an invitation to join had somehow ended up backstage to hang out with Jimmy Buffett.

Sure, the 24 I would have painted on my arm would have paled in comparison but I really regret that decision.

Here's a cool picture of Alpine Valley. You can imagine the crazy shît one could see wandering around here with many of the 35,000 in attendance drinking all day

If I remember correctly the old Tangerine Bowl in Orlando, let you bring in coolers for concerts. So it was alcohol plus assorted party favors at those shows.
