Review of the Mohegan Sun show

September 1st, 2007

The Republican has a review of Thursday night’s show at the Mohegan Sun Casino: “Lots of merriment, Jimmy Buffett style”

On a day of revelry that included an induction into the Mohegan Sun Walk of Fame, Jimmy Buffett and his Coral Reefer Band contributed to the contrived revelry with a two-hour performance on the casino’s Arena stage.

Mohegan Sun has become a regular summer stop on Buffett’s touring itinerary and as much as any other traveling artist his familiarity with the nooks and crannies of New England’s shoreline almost make him a native son.

The pied-piper of public inebriation, Buffett set up his stage to resemble the Bama Breeze Saloon and set out to engage the thousands of fans who had shown up with standard Buffett paraphernalia; stuffed parrots, grass skirts, and glasses filled with frozen beverages.

Article on tailgating at this weekend’s Gillette show

August 30th, 2007

The Sun Chronicle has an article on this weekend’s concert at Gillette Stadium:

Police say Jimmy Buffett fans without tickets to Sunday’s Gillette Stadium concert will be turned away from the parking lots.

Police also will order the lots opened at the normal 3:30 p.m. time – not earlier, as was the case at another concert last month – to discourage uncontrolled partying.

Fans without tickets but a passion for partying are being blamed for many of the widespread drunken parking lot brawls from a July 28 country music festival at the Route 1 stadium.
