I grew up in the Mid-Atlantic, east coast, USA... and our winters tucked. Chilly to cold, grey and wet... sometimes snowy. Jimmy kept me warm until summer. Saw him 5 times and regret not seeing him 5 more. It's just that I now live in SoCal and the tour stops here we're spotty at best...
Not to steal from Jimmy, but his music gave me a whole new attitude. I'm a Vietnam Veteran who returned with some baggage, but I would shove in " High Cumberland Jubilee" in the old 8 track and the lyrics would make things look a whole lot different, better. I've seen at least five or six live concerts from Shoreline Amphitheater, to the Lane County Fair where it was just him and his guitar. The Greek Thearter in Berkeley and in my hometown of Sacramento, playing with the Corral Reefer Band. The concerts just flowed right along and he made it look so easy, but he ran a tight ship, Playlists, jokes, sidebars and videos on the big screen. He was in control from "Fins" to "Come Monday," one of my favorites. They are all my favorites no matter which CD I picked up, that's my favorite Sadly, Jimmy's gone, but I'm sure the Parrotheads will do our best to " Keep the Party Going". Gone But Never Forgotten. Rest in Peace, Bubba Haven't seen as many as some of the Parrotheads, but everyone I saw was one to remember. The first, he thing he would do is grab the crowd some talk of about whatever town he in
in from Key West to Wrigley Field, he made think it was their own private concert right their town. I hope Michael McManley will do his best to hold the Reefers together for a little while Get Kenny Chaney, Alan Jackson or Zac Brown appear as guests. Sounds simple, Right? Without Jimmy the whole thing may fall through. I know the Parrotheads will break out the Hawaiian shirts, grass skirts. coconut bras, the beach ball and big fins and party just like Bubba does well do the old man proud! There's Gypsies in the palace.
yes i am am a pirate, just 200 years to late... totally agree! Jack Johnson for BUFFETT 2024/future. Funny, 1978, i was in charge of being the DJ at our house party. GE Record player. i had 5 records (45's) 1 being Jimmy Buffett - "Margaretiville" and also, Freddy Fender - " Wasted Days and Wasted Nights" obtw- growing up in south texas,,,,,, i miss Freddie and my old stomping grounds.
I travelled over 20 years as a safety officer within the big industrial construction world. I traveled many years and many hotels and motels…I would always ask the receptionist what’s going on in the new town I was in… I stopped for a night along the 5 freeway between San Diego and Newport Beach…as I parked I saw some lights across the street and then asked the receptionist what was going on across the street? She said some musician named jimmy buffet was doing a show at the rodeo grounds…bored I grabbed a pint of whiskey and headed that way after dropping my gear in the room. Driving through the parking lot I saw what looked like tourists with beach balls and parrots on their shoulder , both fake and real, with huge smiles and happy attitudes…I parked, the car next to me offers shots and a burger within one minute of exiting the truck. I partied my way to the ticket booth, paid ten bucks and had one of the best times ive ever had at a random show! Mind you I’m more Metallica and Van Halen, but I was an instant fan of the music and the audience participation, the beach balls, the joint’s going person to person…for a random night I became a huge fan of jimmy and the people that loved jimmy! Good good times
@@scottmichaels12 "he didn’t “piss it away” " he kinda did (that plane took a boatload of fuel to fly) it's just that he made money much faster than he spent it, which is good advice for anyone. There are only a handful of musicians who made it to a billion... Rhianna, Taylor Swift, Jay-Z, Diddy, Paul McCartney, Jimmy Buffet

The ocean is life. We sail it or we sink into it. Jimmy and Jack helped me so much a a young man coming to deal with my rebel ways. Life gives you love if you let it.
My ex wife and I had a pretty rough divorce. When Jimmy died, she reached out in a very selfless way. We're never getting back together, but it helped heal some old wound.
I saw him in snowmass about a year or so before he left us. It was incredible. I had seen him in college but he was even better than I remembered. Miss his stories but we still have his music.
1985... outside of the Oakland coliseum... Maria Mulder (opening act) singing "Midnight at the Oasis"... it's dark outside when Jimmy's limo pulls up... as he's walking towards me, I'm trying to look non-threatening with a Fender Telecaster neck and a permanent ink marker in hand... Jimmy says, "I don't fix'm, I just play'm." Took that treasure he signed straight to my truck and sprayed a coat of clear laquer over his signature. Years later I sold that "Jimmy Buffett Custom" guitar I built on craigslist to raise some money for a move to Hawaii. Got to live in "paradise" for 15 years before heading back to California. Thanks for sharing the dream Jimmy... Yes, I too, am a pirate.
As many Parrotheads, Jimmy's music did change my life . I first heard his genius on "High Cumberland Jubilee" and " God Don't Own Car" and Bubbles Up. There was always one of his songs on the tip of my tongue. And all the tunes made me smile, just magic He is missed. Gone but never forgotten.
This and "He Went To Paris" was the only two songs I could sing to my newborn son to put him to sleep. Jimmy, some of it's magic, and some of it's tragic, but you had a good life all the way.
im 41 yrs old now and i lost my best friend my uncle mario when i was 16 . we use to walk the beaches here on cape cod everyday after school or sports and he was my teacher in life. my ide or die wed cuise in his porche or on the boat but always jammin to buffy . i always cry when i hear me some jimmy or elvis cu my uncle was the bet man i ever met !!! this world is poisoned be government and garbage ...if you take you all could take a walk or sit bye `the beach and and take deep breath youd learn were on burrowerd time enjoy it while your here cu it could be gone tomorow i miss that guy every day of my life and my life will never be the same
Wish I had been there. Jimmy was one of a kind, will never be another like him. He lived the style of life almost all of us would die for and when I listen to his music I do live his lifestyle even if it's ever so slightly and for a very short time. And for that we thank you Jimmy.
I moved to the keys in 02, a guy named Grateful Ted, played this song every night...later i learned it was a Buffet song...awesome and we lived it in the keys!
The hole in my soul is still large but this type of tribute fills some of it!! Love my Brother Jimmy!! Blessings & Prayers to All & Thanks for the music in Jimmy's honor!!
"as a fellow harmonica player, thank you so much for sharing this. awesome job! loved the Jimmy Buffett cover, jack Johnson! your harmonica player really hit the spot as well!. when i close my eyes, i can see jimmy in the keys-a heartfelt tribute to his incredible legacy."
Life long parrot head here. I used listen to his music back in the early 70's on am radio. Later, I had much of his music on cassette. I'd plug in one of his tapes in my Sony Walkman and ski the best mountain in the world, Crystal Mountain in Washington state. There's nothingblike carving up the snow while grooving on his music, that or, Gordon Lightfoot (I miss Gordon as well!). I had a dozen, or more, Hawaiian shirts that I'd wear no matter the weather. There's a picture of me and a friend in shorts, flipflops and Hawaiian shirts holding margaritas standing outside in -25°F weather up in the northwest part of Alaska. Jimmy has been part of my sound track for over 54 years. I miss him dearly.
Another wonderful song and tribute and I was in New Orleans for a Jazz Festival and we saw Jimmy Buffet at the festival and then at the midnight riverboat show and coincidentally ended up in a bourbon street bar, he was friends with Ed Brady RIP and sang a song 60 minutes man! They locked the doors so I played some simple percussion 🎉🎉🎉I was locked in with beautiful Jimmy Buffet until I'll never remember even what day it was 😂❤🎉Thanks for bringing such joy to my morning and heart and soul 🎉Beth in Bend Oregon ❤️ 🎉🎉🎉❤
My #1 favorite songs! I was lucky to be at the Bowl to see and hear all the wonderful songs and artists. Thank you for my 30 years of going to concerts. Bubbles up is one that speaks to me as well.
I am so bummed I did not even know this concert was in town, I would have love to go, I would have sat on any seat just so I could be there and experience it.
Love seeing mac riding shitgun for him, just like he did for Bubba all those years. Just getting to the point where I can listen to this without welling up. "I go for younger women...lived with several awhile, and tho I ran 'em away, they come back one day..."
How did I not meet and play with you at UCSB? We were the same age and I knew Zach Gil and ALO. But somehow I never saw you or knew of you until we graduated.
The world was much better with Jimmy Buffet in it. Gone way before his time. I see no reason why anyone wouldn’t love Jimmy Buffet and what he accomplished. I believe he made enough money to buy Miami and pissed it away so fast.
“Sorry,I was hanging out with Snoop Dogg back stage” Jack, dude, don’t apologize for that! Nor flubbing the beginning of the song. No complaints from this old Parrothead RUclips watcher.
I’m not sure why making memories is so important when in the end all memories are lost, annihilated so completely that it will be as if they never existed at all.

Was taking it all in from back in Q2. Such love.
I grew up in the Mid-Atlantic, east coast, USA... and our winters tucked. Chilly to cold, grey and wet... sometimes snowy. Jimmy kept me warm until summer. Saw him 5 times and regret not seeing him 5 more. It's just that I now live in SoCal and the tour stops here we're spotty at best...
The most perfect entertainer! Hearing a pirate looks at 40 when I turned 40 was one of best times of my life. Sail on the pirate!

Still in mourning, bawling like a baby in Boston. Greatwoods will never be the same.
I wish I was a famous singer like him
Man I shed a tear just about every time I hear Jimmy now. Saw him twice, in 1997 and 2014.
A full Jack Johnson album of Buffett covers would actually be sick as hell
He has such a similar positive style much like Jimmy. That would be great!

"Made enough money to buy Miami, but I pissed it away so fast"... one of the best lines ever!
Of course the irony is, he didn’t “piss it away” and he probably did have enough money to buy Miami… as well as a few other cities.😁
@@scottmichaels12 "he didn’t “piss it away” "

Great line but not accurate. I’m more in the WC Fields camp..”I spent half my fortune on whiskey and women, the other half I wasted!”…

@@eileendarr3956 Thank you for clarifying this. She sounds great with backup vocals; but thrown off on the key for the harmonica. a BIG FAN now!
If you love Jimmy Buffett, then you are my friend without further introduction.
That is the best expression of love for Jimmy I’ve ever read.
Hello friend.
Thank you Jack for such a wonderful Tribute to Everybody's Friend . ! .
The ocean is life. We sail it or we sink into it. Jimmy and Jack helped me so much a a young man coming to deal with my rebel ways. Life gives you love if you let it.
thank you Jimmy for leaving so many great songs that will never fade from our hearts. Nicely done Mr. Johnson
Jimmy was here my entire life. He is one of the immortals.
My ex wife and I had a pretty rough divorce. When Jimmy died, she reached out in a very selfless way. We're never getting back together, but it helped heal some old wound.

Me At 76, jimmy has been in my vocals,thoughts,and playlist most of my life. Thank you Jimmy
So beautiful"
Thank you all for sharing.
He will be missed.
“He was a friend of my dad.” Love that. My step dad brought JB into my life and will always be a good friend if him and I.

This song never get old.
Thanks,
WOW!!! Give Thanks and Love. 🙏✌😻
Jimmy’s music and the water in the background is one of the most relaxing things in the world to me.
Hearing this you know there is hope in the world and that music is alive and well
I moved to the keys in 02, a guy named Grateful Ted, played this song every night...later i learned it was a Buffet song...awesome and we lived it in the keys!
Still seems odd he is gone... 😢 ❤❤
The hole in my soul is still large but this type of tribute fills some of it!! Love my Brother Jimmy!! Blessings & Prayers to All & Thanks for the music in Jimmy's honor!!
That girl playing the harmonica is as gorgeous as the ocean waves behind her. Stunning. ❤

I see Caroline up there. She is a wonderful musician. I think Jimmy discovered her in my home town.
Will always Love this Song ... Love the Book ... Love Jimmy
My favorite Jimmy Buffett song. Great tribute.
I went to an AA mtg and said “ I thought this was gonna be a Jimmy Buffett died today meeting.” Had a lotta happy drunks listening to Jimmy. RIP.
@@davebryant8050 Why ?
thank you mr Johnson❤
I will also pay tribute to you someday brother Jimmy💫🙏💙 nicely done Jack & Mac 👊
My #1 favorite songs! I was lucky to be at the Bowl to see and hear all the wonderful songs and artists. Thank you for my 30 years of going to concerts. Bubbles up is one that speaks to me as well.
Absolutely beautiful. Jimmy would be proud!
Great cover! Miss ya Jimmy
This is amazing.... thank you
God I miss JB so bad some days, it still brings me to tears.
Love it. Want more!
Harmonica, 1st class Jimmy smiles from beyond
I am so bummed I did not even know this concert was in town, I would have love to go, I would have sat on any seat just so I could be there and experience it.
Excellent ❤
Amazing and beautiful tribute to Jimmy! Mahalo x3 from the "other" big island, Carson CA.
Kelly ! Love the camp bro 🤙
So good… ❤
Jack’s a great story teller. The “Jimmy Buffett the plumber” story is almost as good as his “Willie Nelson got me stoned” story.😁
Thank you for this!!
The Sorry I was hanging out with Snoop Dog backstage was funny.
great job!
More Jack Johnson covers of Jimmy please.
😢great man
I didn’t know George Lucas played guitar.
🤣 I thought that of Mac, and it has been a popular comment too. I needed a chuckle right now, thanks man. 🙏🏼
Good Stuff.
Kelly yes!❤❤❤🌊🎶🌊🎶🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
Thank you, Jimmy ❤
I’ve done a bit a smuggling too 😏
My papa taught me about Jimmy and pirates….🏴☠️
It's sad that dying was the only way JB was going to get into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. He deserved so much more than a posthumous induction.
God rest your soul Jimmy Buffet my husband eho had passed did a bit of smuggelin he sold his share of grass🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
That chick on the harmonica is an angel.
Very nice job.
Kelly Slater… San Clemente CA in the house
Dopeeeee
Skip to 3:09 if you just wanna hear the song …
Thanks.
Love seeing mac riding shitgun for him, just like he did for Bubba all those years. Just getting to the point where I can listen to this without welling up.

Mac should add Jack Johnson as a permanent vocal with the Reefers. Wish Zac would tour with them too!! This wound is still horribly raw.
I’m glad to see George Lucas playing guitar, love you Jack and Jimmy
Get it, Mac McAnnaly!
❤😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤

No complaints from this old Parrothead RUclips watcher.
I never knew George Lucas was one of Jack Johnson's back up guitarists! Small galaxy!
Never stops being funny 😄
Is that Jake on Uke?? Looks like Him.
AMEN 😊😇👆
Aloha and thank you for posting! What is the name of the gal paying harmonica and back ground vocals? Mahalo ~~philip
Aloha PhiIip, I believe that is Caroline Jones.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caroline_Jones
Thank you🙏
Who’s the cutie on the harmonica?!
Keep the party going…………
Who were the other musicians on stage, anyone know?
1:39 *SONG PORTION BEGINS*
George Lucas has a fantastic voice!
(Yes...I know MM.)
And I thought I was the only one that thought Mac was full on channeling prequels George 😂
Harp player is? Great chops and lovely!!
Why does everyone blame poor Snoop? 😂😂
Is that Mac Mcanally?
That has to be him. Secret sauce behind Buffett, Chesney and others.
