5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book!, August 21, 2008

By	H. Parker Kelley (New Canaan, CT) - See all my reviews

I really like this book -- in fact, I've been hoping someone would write a book like this for years. It's a great portable handbook to Jimmy Buffett and the Buffett concert scene. I'm definitely not a concert Virgin, but I still found some great ideas for our next outing, with some cool information about the band and the songs. The book is a good read and offers a nice view into our little world of Buffett "enthusiasts." (It also has a cool look and design -- but I'm a sucker for Key West colors!

1.0 out of 5 stars This book was poorly researched and poorly written, November 29, 2008

By	Paul E. Leslie "Host of Time After Island Tim... (Georgia on My Mind) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It appears to have just been thrown together. If you're already a Buffett fan, it's just someone trying to cash in.

If you're new to all of this--Do you really need someone to tell you how to go to a party? Lame.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Concert Prep Manual, August 24, 2008

By	Bruce T. Smith (Shillington, PA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you haven't attended a Jimmy Buffett concert, this book gives you the background to make your first one memorable. If you have, it is a pleasant reminder of why you go.
