Wastin' Away Again...

Well, after 6 years of trying with no luck, I was finally able to score tickets to the Jimmy Buffet concert in Cincinnati this past Thursday. It was out of this world! It's like the world's biggest parrothead party! The margaritas were flowing, the music was blaring, and beach balls were flying everywhere! Jimmy Buffet is one of my favorite artists. I'm well on my way to collecting every album by him and to get the chance to see him in concert was amazing. You could literally feel the energy wash over the crowd when he did one of his popular songs like Fins or Margaritaville. Hopefully this won't be the last time I get to see him and I'll be able to score tickets the next time he comes back to Cincy. Until then, guess I'll just have to settle for drinking margaritas and listening to my CDs.

Hi Derek, my name is Drew and I am also a parrothead. I have seen Jimmy quite a few times and each time is so much fun.

I did a search for parrotheads because my blog is running a contest this month with a site called Mad Gringo and I'm giving away a Mad Gringo Hawaiian shirt (perfect for the tailgating) and other swag. I figured that you might want to participate based on this post about being a parrothead. If you are interested please visit my blog at http://www.wiredkayaker.com/2007/12/mad-gringo.html
