Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville Cafe opens in Nashville on Monday, and the Tennessean gives us a look inside:

Earlier this week we showed you the below picture and asked you to submit your own caption for it. We took six of our favorites and put them in a poll for you to vote on.

Jimmy Buffett will play back-to-back charity fundraisers next month in the South.

The first, which we reported on in October, is the Andy Roddick Charity Gala on Saturday, December 4th in Austin, Texas. The next night Buffett will join Allen Toussaint at the New Orleans Artists Against Hunger and Homelessness 25th Anniversary Gala.

The NOAAHH event will be held at Generations Hall. In addition to Toussaint and Buffett, you’ll be entertained by Dr. John, Irma Thomas, Dave Bartholomew, Jon Cleary, Little Freddie King, Deacon John and the Ivories.
