In addition to Buffett they will also play with James Taylor for a few shows and Chris Stapleton and a few shows alone. The Boston date lists just the Eagles so I hope this keeps a Buffett GW stop on the agenda.

With Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band:
Sat Apr 14 Orlando, FL Camping World Stadium
Sat Apr 21 Miami, FL Hard Rock Stadium
Thu Jun 28 Denver, CO Coors Field
Sat Jun 30 Minneapolis, MN Target Field

I have seen JB live 29 times and the Eagles 5, and I would not hesitate to see either again. The stadium shows are different for sure but for the Bands its a money/legacy thing, I think. I have heard JB mention opening for the Eagles in days gone by, so maybe its just a nostalgia kick in for both of the Bands. I don't feel either needs the other, success is already over the top so I came up with this scenario. Imagine being in a stadium with a 50,000 plus fan base, seeing two of Americas major music impact shows all for the price of one regular ticket. How bad can that really be? Oh by the way for the bands, its half the normal work, for twice the normal size crowd, and the same basic money, with aging Bands I'm sure that is a pleasant thought. My dilemma is does that count as half show or two full shows? Stadium shows, Its just too complicated!

huh??
If it's not pretty much a full set by each band I'd be shocked!!

Jimmy Buffett has been at about 25 songs the past few years. Add in an opening act with time between each for stage changeovers that would mean a show that is about 5 1/2 + hours long. I don't think both Buffett and the Eagles will do full 20-23 song sets each, I think there will be more collaboration with both on stage at the same time for some songs with each doing shorter sets alone.

I am so happy the Boston stop for the Eagles doesn't include Buffett.

It doesn't matter to me because I am not going to any of these shows, but I respectively disagree. I think that jimmy will get a full set for this show.
