Jimmy Buffett SummerZcool Tour 2009

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.

If it All Falls Down...

If it all falls down, falls down, falls down...

If they solve my life, they find me out.

Never thought to keep all I have found,

I have had my fun if it all falls down!

Another Trip Around the Sun

Hear 'em singing Happy Birthday

Better think about the wish I make

This year gone by ain't been a piece of cake

Every day's a revolution

Pull it together and it comes undone

Just one more candle and a trip around the sun

I'm just hanging on while this old world keeps spinning

And it's good to know it's out of my control

If there's one thing that I've learned from all this living

Is that it wouldn't change a thing if I let go

No, you never see it coming

Always wind up wondering where it went

Only time will tell if it was time well spent

It's another revelation

Celebrating what I should have done

With these souvenirs of my trip around the sun

I'm just hanging on while this old world keeps spinning
And it's good to know it's out of my control
If there's one thing that I've learned from all this living
Is that it wouldn't change a thing if I let go

Yes, I'll make a resolution

That I'll never make another one

Just enjoy this ride on my trip around the sun

Just enjoy this ride ...Until it's done.

Jimmy Buffett
