Any Jimmy Buffett concert is a good concert for a Parrot head (Buffett fan) but seeing Jimmy at Toyota Park outside Chicago was a real treat especially because we had time to wonder the pre-show tailgate shenanigans that make Jimmy concerts extra fun. All manner of dress, booze, herb, food and decor is sure to amuse even non fans. There were people grilling fillets and cheeseburgers, blenders whirling that frozen concoction that helps you hang on and Jimmy trivia games where you were rewarded or punished with a shot of booze.
The ever popular fin motif was present on cars, trucks, rv's and clothing. Seeing and hearing 36,000 fellow parrot heads performing the ritual that accompanies the Fin song is a experience one is likely not to forget. Jimmy sings about a lifestyle that is Caribbean issue and Florida inspired with lyrics that reach into my soul and make me smile. I recommend a little Buffett buffet for anyone who wants to learn what life if like without your shoes.
Chicago was steamy, Jimmy hot and the margaritas plentiful last Saturday night, we sang and danced and let our hair down with the Son of a Son of a Sailor, what a blast.
