Only without Jimmy Buffett or his music.

4. Yep...you anticipated my response and planned ahead
My primary objection to Buffett (and there are many, but this one perches right at the top of the list) is that he took one of the Beach Boys' greatest songs...some say the LAST great Brian Wilson song performed by the Carl Wilson / Dennis Wilson / Mike Love / Al Jardine edition of the band (with Blondie Chaplin and Ricky Fataar), "Sail On Sailor"...and turned it into a lifeless, pointless "cover version" to pad out one of his "greatest hist" CDs.

5. Need the Jimmy Buffet.
He's the center of it all. IT. ALL. Nothing makes me homesick like a Jimmy Buffet song.

6. One thing I like about Jimmy Buffett
is he at least LOOKS like he's having fun when he's on stage. I've been to way too many concerts where you can tell these guys are just up there so someone will give them a check.
