Jimmy Buffett Tickets (SOLD)


Sancho Panza

Wow

Jimmy Buffett for $300 a copy in the 27th row. I'm glad I saw him in the early and late 80's when it was $35. I saw him at Wrigley and it was a disappointment, and the  crowd sucks. Basically they know 4 songs, Cheeseburger, Lets get drunk, Margaritaville and maybe Fins.

Sancho is getting postage and handling so its not scalping. And anything is illegal only if you get caught

Asking more than the face value is illegal.  Read the fine print.

How does stub hub do it then?

 

 

I have been looking for Dead tickets in Soldier Field July 3, 4, 5th.  Take a look at those on Stub Hub.............Buffet is a bargain by comparison I guess.  I don't the purchaser ever finds out the identity of the seller.  So the seller gets away with it.  Stub hub simply gets a "commission" (their fee from the seller) which is not technically selling anything.  Everyone is happy I guess until one day.

Lawn tickets are still $36 in Cincinnati. Just saying. Even after the extra parking fees and whatnot I've got 7 people going for about $300 total.

Jimmy wasn't exactly mainstream back then. I can't say I agree with you nowadays. I have been to Cincinnati multiple times, St. Louis a couple, Nashville multiple times both outdoors and in, Indianapolis once I think. The crowd is about the only reason to go. Tailgating beforehand is more fun than the concert itself. And most know most every word to most any song that he would play in a concert. The only ones they DON'T know are the new ones he mixes in to keep it fresh. Sometimes he will let Mac McAnally play one of his originals, sometimes other band members too. Nobody has a clue as to what those are, which, is kind of the point.

Buffet was at Wrigley in 2008 I think. Before that I saw him do the Floridays tour back in 91 I think. IMO he was great until after Barometer Soup and then he just pumped out an album every year. Have you ever heard him play "God's own Drunk"?

Back to the sale of some tickets, sorry about the hijack

I have tried to listen to Jimmy Buffet when I'm not at the beach, and I just can't. When I'm at the beach, I can't get enough of him. Go figure!

 

I was told that if you frequent Key West, you can sit and have a drink with Jimmy Buffet. He's just a regular guy in flip-flops...

I went to Margaritaville back around 83. I had a chance to go out on a boat and I guess he would just pull up and boats would park and party. He would break out the guitar and play with whoever wanted to jump in. I didnt go, back then it wasnt the safest place to hang out with strangers. I missed a party! In the keys, I made up for it in Palm Beach lol

Around year 2001 we went to St. Louis to an outdoor ampitheater and it started storming, and I don't say "storming" lightly. Kept getting worse and worse, lighting all around us, heat lighting directly above. A tornado touched down 2 miles away. I mean it was bad. Nobody left. Jimmy realized the severity and stopped in the middle of a song, not to tell everybody to seek shelter, but to pull up a stool and sing "trying to reason with the hurricane season" without a hitch. :)

These prices are not in the spirit of the Klipsch Community it seems...

 

 

Are you saying that selling something cheaper than what you bought it is not in the spirit of the Klipsch Community or do you think Sancho Panza is not telling the truth?
