I am so geeked about going once again. My luck of 27 consecutives times ran out in 1997. Since then, I have always picked up a fifth of booze, took the boat out...drop anchor...and played my collection of live Buffett tunes. Not the new stuff...the old stuff...the good stuff...the premium stuff. In 1996, at Pine Knob I was escorted to my seat after blowing up a 8 ft shark. I worked in a pool store and saved the shark for the right moment. I snuck it into the concert and it took forever to fill the thing full of air. I ran up to the stage as Buffett started to chime into the song "Finns" it was perfect timing. "Fins to left...Fins to the right. Somebody get security and sit this drunk guy down on a Saturday night! said Buffett. That was me. I am bringing the "Dare Chair". I don't think I will be throwing that up on stage
