Buffett Trying to Reason With Hurricane Season in Indy

August 25th, 2011


Jimmy Buffett took the Welcome to Fin Land Tour to Indianapolis on Thursday night for a show at the Verizon Wireless Music Center.

Check out the Indy Star’s review of the show: “Buffett draws a big crowd, again”.

As Hurricane Irene bears down on the eastern seaboard, Buffett closed the show with “Trying to Reason With Hurricane Season.” He told the crowd that he hoped Irene would veer east so the show could go on this Saturday at Jiffy Lube Live in Bristow, Virginia.

Currently the track shows Irene in southern Virginia on Saturday evening as a Category 2 hurricane with 105 mph winds, with strong effects felt in Bristow:

Check back periodically as we’ll post any info on the show as soon as we get it.

Jimmy Buffett played a show at Jones Beach Theater on Friday night and then headed up Long Island to the Hamptons for a couple parties over the weekend.

On Sunday night in Montauk a launch party was held for Chris Blackwell’s ‘Blackwell Fine Jamaicain Rum.” Buffett was at the beach party and was asked what he’s been doing on his summer break:

“You know what I did this year? Nothing,” he said. “I hung out, enjoyed my kids and the weather.”

Rain Delays and Shortens Jones Beach Show

August 19th, 2011


A soggy night on Long Island delayed the start of Jimmy Buffett’s show at the Nikon at Jones Beach Theater by an hour on Friday night.

The weather apparently caused the show to be shortened too, as Buffett only played 23 songs, instead of the usual 25 or 26 that he’s been playing at concerts this year. Only two songs were played during the encore, with “Last Man Standing” finishing out the set.

View the full set list here, along with Justin’s show notes.

The Welcome to Finland Tour continues Tuesday at Riverbend Amphitheater in Cincinnati. You can still find tickets for the remaining shows, plus the Las Vegas shows in October, at TicketNetwork.
