Jimmy Buffett-4/25/09

Fins UP! I've been listening to Jimmy Buffett since I was born probably. My fondest memory is driving through Pompano beach in my dad's Datsun listening to the Volcano song. I just loved it. Well now some 30 years later I still love it just like I did then. I've fortunately seen Buffett in concert now about 6 times. Every show is amazing and this one we attended this past weekend had to have been my absolute favorite. The show isn't always about the music, although this time he really seemed to play all the old favorites with a few newer songs mixed in. Most importantly we had the most amazing group of people go with us and truly savored every moment.

First, my best friend Michele (been friends since 2nd grade) came down from GA for the weekend just to see Buffett with us. Then my awesome neighbors (Dave, Curt, Scott and Joanie, Scott's cousin David and his wife Rosa) came as well. And some friends of ours from the military base (Ken, Molly, Pam, Amity, Tim and some others)came along and finally some of my friends from school (Dan, Lucy, Casey and Marissa) joined us. The tailgate party was so much fun, all these people from all different walks of life came together and acted like old buddies. It was so great, words just don't express how incredible it was.

THEN there was the show. I just love all his songs, the words so simple but mean so much. Oh I can't wait until next time. For all those who went with us, you're all amazing people and I'm so happy to have enjoyed this day with you. Until next time....FINS UP!
