The Summerzcool tour moved east tonight as Jimmy and the band invaded the Coast of Carolina for the next show on the Summerzcool Tour in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Tonight’s changes started early as “Coconut Telegraph” moved into the second spot, replacing “Stars on the Water.” “A Lot to Drink About” continued to move around, this time landing at the end of the first set. The second set remained basically the same, the only change being “Gypsies in the Palace,” which was inserted into the set instead of “Fruitcakes.” For the encore, “We are the People our Parents Warned us About” was back in, as was “He Went to Paris” as the final song.

There is a decent quality video on YouTube of Jimmy debuting his new song “Summerzcool” at last Thursday’s concert in Atlanta:

The Dallas Morning News has a review of Saturday night’s Jimmy Buffett concert at Pizza Hut Park in Frisco, Texas: “Jimmy Buffet Concert At Pizza Hut Park Had Plenty To Please Parrotheads”

For a few hours Saturday night, the waves were kissing the shore and the palm trees were swaying in a soccer stadium in landlocked North Texas.

The eternal slacker-surfer-seadog Jimmy Buffett brought his Summerzcool Tour to Pizza Hut Park and allowed about 27,000 of his dedicated fans to get in touch with their inner parrots.

Fronting his 11-member Coral Reefer Band, the barefooted Buffett bounced around like a kid who had just tossed his text books and headed for the beach. His 2 ½-hour set concentrated on his classic songs while throwing in just a few less-expected numbers.

“The sunshine has returned to Texas” remarked Jimmy as he and the band kicked off the next show on the Summerzcool Tour tonight in Frisco, Texas.

The Frisco set was basically the same set as Atlanta, with a few differences of course. “Fruitcakes” was an on-the-spot audible in the second set, bouncing “A Lot to Drink About” into the final encore slot. Another surprise was the appearance of The Lost Verse during “Margaritaville”. But by far the surprise of the night was in the first encore instead of the second as “Livingston Saturday Night” made its first appearance in a set list since April 14, 1995 in Charleston, South Carolina. This was also the first outing of the song without Greg “Fingers” Taylor as Doyle Grisham filled in nicely with a pedal steel solo. Looks like sunshine has indeed returned to Texas.
