Jimmy Buffett Adds Third Australia Show

After the two Sydney Opera House shows sold out in mere minutes, Jimmy Buffett has added a third show Down Under, reported Richard Wilkins on this morning’s Today Show.

Buffett will perform at the Hordern Pavilion in Moore Park, Sydney on Australia Day: January 26th.

Tickets go on sale January 7th.

Buffett’s previously announced Sydney shows will take place January 23rd and 24th at the Opera House. There is also an Auckland, New Zealand show in the works.

Update – Buffett comments on the strong demand:

“I had no idea we had so many birds in our nest down under. I was just thinking that the kinds of crowd we would expect in Sydney would be on par with the size of audiences we play to in Europe. Boy was I wonderfully wrong about that. We are happy and glad to add another show. It also means more surf time for me.” Jimmy commented from Florida this weekend.
