Good times... I saw the Eagles, Jimmy Buffet, Hall and Oates, and Andrew Gold at the Orlando Citrus Bowl , Summer of 1977, for $10.00.

(30,947 posts)one of our editors did an interview with him. I begged to go with her, but no way.
My sibling saw him last week in FL with Bill Nelson in an airport hanger, I was soo envious! We're supposed to get a report on DU about this - I'll give you a heads up - I hope there are some pics

(13,626 posts)What a great show. The Coral Reefer Band warmed up. Back in the day where you could walk in and they made you open up your coat. Bota bag hanging right there? No problem! As long as you didn't have glass, it was cool. Jimmy's a good man!

(13,626 posts)I made my own best of Jimmy cd's. One rowdy and one more mellow. They pretty much cover most of what most Buffett fans would consider classics. Some of the live versions are essential.

(2 posts)Unless somebody has a source, I believe that this post is wrong. Obama held a free concert in tampa on 11/2 in 2008.
I was there in '08 it was a great concert I was expecting a couple of songs and a bunch of speeches but it was just the opposite a couple of speeches and a full blown buffett concert
I do believe you're right I haven't heard anything about one this year
