Under The Big Top Tour Begins in Tampa

April 24th, 2010


The show was back on the road Saturday night as Jimmy and the band began the Under The Big Top Tour with a performance at the Ford Amphitheater in Tampa, Florida.

Notable additions to the set list this year include “Knees of My Heart,” “Frank and Lola,” “If the Phone Doesn’t Ring, It’s Me,” “Big Top” and others. “Tin Cup Chalice” finished things off. Buffett also added Mac McAnally’s song “Back Where I Come From,” which Kenny Chesney has made popular over the years.

View the entire set list here.

In a first for Buffett, portions of the show were streamed live on ustream.tv (part of the soundcheck was streamed earlier in the day too).

Update – The videos have been removed from the Big Top Tour ustream channel. You may only be able to watch live streaming in the future.

Today’s Soundcheck to be Streamed Online

April 24th, 2010


The 2010 Under The Big Top Tour kicks off tonight at 8 pm in Tampa, Florida, and Jimmy Buffett is venturing even more into social media by streaming the soundcheck live on USTREAM.

From 3-5 pm ET, go to www.ustream.tv/channel/bttour to watch a live video feed from the soundcheck at Ford Amphitheater in Tampa, the kick off to this year’s tour. You can also watch it here at Buffett World (when it goes lives, it will appear in the video box below).

The USTREAM channel is titled “bttour,” so we’ll likely see video feeds throughout the summer. If you aren’t able to view the live feed this afternoon, the videos are often archived for later viewing.
