I saw Jimmy Buffet years ago. The crowd loved him, the band danced around with
a shark, and sang songs about tequila and so-on.
Personally speaking, I didn't get it.
I guess it was more about the party, than the music.

Fellow BE owner Michael Allsup from Three Dog Night sat in with him once and
said the old guy was giving him fits -- trying to make him look bad.
I also heard on the Bob and Tom show that Jimmy Buffet sat in with him once
and Paul gave him a hard time. B I guess they gave Buffett a heavy guitar to
play and when Jimmy asked for a strap, Paul said not to bother as he
wouldn't be playing that long, anyhow. B As I recall Paul called him
something to the effect of "somebody named Jimmy from Florida" as though he
was a nobody. B He either had a big sense of humor or he could be a bit of an
ass. B Don't know which.
