LICENCE TO CHILL TOUR ALPINE VALLEY, 2004
SET-LIST
Alpine Phlockers: Tim, Dana, Abby and Heidi Alpine Valley License to Chill Tour July 10, 2004
Jimmy Buffett live is more than music Reviewing strictly the music of a show by Jimmy Buffett and his band would be like assessing the house band playing during timeouts at a basketball game. As the band without the game doesn't mean too much, the live music of Jimmy Buffett and his Coral Reefer Band isn't complete without the sloshing party taking place in the stands and in the parking lot . Buffett and his band came to southeastern Wisconsin for a show at Alpine Valley Music Theatre on Saturday night. The performance was sold out. Still, hundreds of "Parrotheads," as Buffett fans are known, ambled about the acres of cars, campers and chartered buses bringing in fans and Parrothead parties, in search of a scalper. There were also some pre- and- post-show revelers in the lot just hanging out, including a guy from Madison who was sporting official Green Bay Packers uniform stretch pants, stocking and logo-emblazoned cap but with only a decisively undersized bra made of souvenir cheesehead material straining to cover his otherwise bare torso. But back to the party inside. After entering the theater turnstiles, one was immediately confronted with an elbow-to-elbow crowd of folks mainly in their 30s and 40s, decked out in shorts, beach-style button-downs and leis loosely dangling from their necks. There were many beers consumed - not to mention margaritas and other tropical concoctions that were for sale. For the most part, Buffett spiritedly served up his usual mix of reflective to party-hearty folk and country-rock-flavored beach-bum ballads. During the introductory acoustic numbers, Buffett played "The Great Filling Station Holdup," with his frequent musical cohort Mac McAnally strumming beside. Other numbers that kept the non-stop overhead volley of beach balls and foam-filled sharks moving included "Carnival World" and "Son of a Son of a Sailor," with the crowd either shouting along the lyrics or reflectively engaged. But a rendition of "Brown Eyed Girl" had just about everyone joining in. The second half of the show continued the mood. hings picked up mid-set when Buffett went into one of his signatures, "Cheeseburger in Paradise," with his mildly lamenting ballad "Cuban Crime of Passion" coming soon after. By the time Buffett went into "Margaritaville," his signature ode to tropical splendor, nearly all the Parrotheads in attendance appeared to have already arrived. |

TULLY MARS DAY AT CANTERBURY PARK Smarty Pants
Jones lost but we
didn't! Besides all the personal fortunes won today at
Canterbury Park, the St
MinneSomePlace Canterbury Crawl winnings hit $150 for Alzheimers! Tully Mars Day at Canterbury was a great
afternoon (although a little bit on the vicey side) of playing the ponies and phlocking with our Parrot Head
friends.

March 20, On the Island While some of us couldn’t make it, over 225 did and turned our biggest annual event into another great effort of phlockin’ and fund raisin’ fun! With your generosity, St MSP raised a record $7800 for Ready, Set, Kindergarten! Thanks to everyone, including the Des DesMoines-A PHC, who pitched into help, contributed to the great silent auction items and who participated in the auction to buy these Parrot Head treasures. The Stars on the Water band did their best to keep us in the La Vie Dasante mood, with musical assists by the one and only Jim Hoehn and our Northern Latitude friend, Lic’car Lopez. We had an extraordinary collection of Grand McCaw gifts for the live auction, the likes of which will certainly be available on an on-going basis based upon the support the auction bidders have shown. The room decorations were once again worthy of Parrot Head national competitions! Unbelievable efforts! Thanks to everyone who got their room dressed for the occasion! Rumors of Snake, Everlasting Mooney and Johnny D of takin’ care of the island like it was their own and throwing people in the pool were substantiated by all the photos of the sordid activities! Good to see Frankie and the Bra Limbo back in place too! We are already working on next year’s 10th annual event, set for April 9. Hope to see everyone down island once again. | |||
