Jimmy Buffett will once again use his musical talents and celebrity to get out the vote in Florida. He’ll perform at a rally in West Palm Beach on Saturday for Senator Bill Nelson and gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum.

From the Palm Beach Post:

The event is scheduled for 2:30 p.m. Saturday at Meyer Amphitheatre in downtown West Palm Beach, according to a post by the Gillum campaign.

Palm Beach resident Buffett is no stranger to Democratic politics. A few days before the Aug. 28 Democratic primary, he performed a free concert in Hollywood for Gwen Graham, who finished second to Gillum in the five-candidate race.

2018 marks the 40th anniversary of Jimmy Buffett’s live album You Had To Be There. Friend of BuffettWorld Calen Schultz has put together a mini-documentary celebrating the anniversary. Watch below:

Well he’s not building a theater in Branson just yet, but Jimmy Buffett is bringing a LandShark Bar & Grill to Branson Landing in Branson, Missouri later this year:

The Branson Landing posted to Facebook Monday an image of the
LandShark Bar and Grill that will open in late 2018. It will replace Texas Land and Cattle in the town square part of the shopping and dining area.

LandShark is inspired by the great “beach joints” that once dotted the Atlantic coast. The menu is American beach food with a fresh coastal twist. The restaurant is under the Jimmy Buffett Margaritaville umbrella. You will find Jimmy Buffett-inspired items.

According to Page Six, Jimmy Buffett made a surprise appearance at the Hamptons Surf Lodge over the weekend:

Summer in the Hamptons is still going for island rocker Jimmy Buffett — who surprised guests at Surf Lodge last weekend by getting onstage during a Wyclef Jean gig.

Buffett performed “Margaritaville,” changing the lyrics to center on Montauk, with Jean on bongos.

Buffett also referenced hotspot owner Jayma Cardoso by shouting, “Those Brazilian women gave me too much tequila!”
