Karin - I can't recall the pirates at Tampa. I was in Floor 1, Row 2, Seats 15 and 16 and we must have right next together at Club Trini, based on your photos. I was literally right next to Utley's keyboard.

Steve - we were right next to each other. . I was in seat 8 at the show and right in front of Mike Utley. I know why I didn't see you. . I didn't take my eyes of of Jimmy! You know - how he scans the crowd while singing. . well, for that one brief moment we made eye contact I just have to say "WOW!!".

Steve,

You were two seats to the left of us. We had the older couple between us. We were the group with Pirates. I saw Jimmy acknowledge you when he came on stage. Wish I had know it was you we would have said hi.

NYC - I recall the older folks. Tried tohelp the lady with Fins. Wish, too, I had known you so I could have said Hi / bought you a beer. I'm glad someone else saw Buffett's acknowledgement (of my shirt). When he did that, I asked my wife: Did he just do that or am I dreaming ?

I'll back you up on that one. I think I remember a little waving of his finger at you too in a "your bad for waring that shirt". He was clearly amused by the shirt.

Thanks, NYC. I told some people here about that and they all thought I was BS'ing them. Between that show, and the Orlando Club Trini show, I had my absolute BEST time in 20+ years.

Just had to get in on this one! My friend Elizabeth handpainted the beaded necklace that Michael is wearing!! And to brag a little, if you look at Ken's page

Dezdamona - We were very close. I was to the right of you...you can just make out my nose and mustache in this photo. I was right next to Utley's keyboard. Awesome time !

Hey Steve, glad to see you made it home safely, Chip and Teresa here, from the Outer Banks of NC.

Looks like just about the whole front row of us, from the Club Trini show, has logged on here.

Great pics Karin!

It was definitley a magical night.

I wish I knew how to post a couple of our pics.

Chip and Teresa from the Outer Banks - It certainly was a magical time ! I have some good photos too. Unfortunately, I forgot my digital camera and used a disposable one. I'll try to figure out how to post them here. I have a scanner but ain't too bright when it comes to using it. Karin's photos are great though. I'll also try to post the handwritten set-list I got from Utley at the end of the show as well as Jimmy's set-list from Tampa. The good news for me is he is playing in Houston and Dallas in April. Two more chances to see him this year ! If anyone is coming in for the Dallas show, you are welcome to stay at my house. Plenty of room...

Here are a few more. . S i g h. . I can't believe it was a week ago. .

How pretty is Nadirah?!! Here's one for the boys. .

My new favorite Coral Reefer! Okay. .maybe not my "favorite"!

The coolest part. . . .is that they looked like they were having so much fun!

Geez!! Peter is so hot! But Ralph is still my favorite!! Although TC & John were very, very nice guys!! Just think folks, a week ago at this time we were getting in line for the show!! Just climb through these bushes here and hop in line with us!!
