Tonight Danneel Patti and I went to the Jimmy Buffett concert in Phoenix. We had a blast! It was a great show and it went off without a hitch. Jimmy put on a dynamite concert! He played a bunch of his old favorites, standards, "songs you know by heart," and a few new ones that I have never heard. Oh yeah... and Yellow Submarine in an encore (that was really cool). The concert attracted quite a few hard partiers, that I hope got home okay, and a few I was really concerned about. Jimmy rocked the Cricket (formerly Desert Sky) Pavilion, with the help of the Coral Reefers, minus Michael Utley who was attending his daughter's graduation in Florida. However, they were able to carry on without the aid of their piano player. This is my third Buffett concert here. I went to "2001 A Beach Odyssey" tour, and "The Far Side of the World" tour in 2002. It is never a disappointment.
