Buffett Returns to Cincinnati Tonight

May 17th, 2010


The 2010 Under The Big Top Tour continues tonight at the Riverbend Amphitheater in Cincinnati, Ohio as Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band return to the town where the term “parrothead” was first coined 25 years ago.

Watch the soundcheck on Ustream at 3 pm ET (if you have an Android phone or iPhone you can watch using the Ustream app, just search for “bttour”). Then tune into Radio Margaritaville at 7:30 pm ET for the pre-show. At 8 pm Ilo Ferreira will open the show with a short set, followed by Jimmy. The last two shows have been streamed in their entirety on Ustream, so look for that again tonight.

Follow along with the set list and chat with other parrothead during the show on our forum.

Margaritaville.com Gets a Makeover

May 16th, 2010


Jimmy Buffett’s official website Margaritaville.com has received a makeover. There doesn’t appear to be many new features, just mainly cosmetic changes. And the tour dates page seems to have been completed before the fall dates were added, because they are not listed.

Here’s a quick tour of how the Margaritaville.com site has changed over the years. How far back do you remember?

Indiana Goes Under the Big Top

May 15th, 2010


The circus came to town Saturday night as Jimmy and the Reefers moved the Under The Big Top Tour to the Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre in Noblesville, Indiana.

Notable additions to the set list this time included “Frank and Lola,” “Wings,” and “Window on the World.” “Tampico Trauma” was soundchecked earlier but it appears it was replaced on the spot in the encore by “Brown Eyed Girl.” “Tin Cup Chalice” was tonight’s final encore, dedicated to the Gulf Coast. Jimmy exclaimed “Save the Gulf!” at the end of the song.

View the entire set list here.

Live streaming video of the entire show was broadcast once again on USTREAM.tv. At intermission, Jimmy signed into the chat for a couple minutes. He thanked everyone for watching the broadcast and for chatting along and asked if everyone was enjoying the show and the new technology (hat tip Surfpirate). This is the second time Jimmy’s joined the ustream chat. He pulled his iPad out at the Atlanta soundcheck and chatted in front of the camera for a few minutes.

Metromix Indianapolis has some photos from the show. Check them out. Also the Indy Star has a review of the show: “Buffett brings an early touch of summer”

The second leg of the Under The Big Top Tour will continue Monday with a show in Cincinnati, OH. You can still get your tickets now!
