Jimmy Buffett

Definitely didn't not disappoint! Great show great venue and an amazing time! Easy getting into and out of parking lot!

I have seen Jimmy Buffett at Riverbend 9 times. He always puts on an amazing show.

Jimmy is always the best show. Look forward to it every year. This was our 11 year and hope for many more.

don't know why it took me this long.... first time and jimmy and the reefers were fantastic... cant wait for the next one, if there is a next one.....

JIMMY AND THE REFFERS WERE AWESOME AS USUAL.THE MGM SUCKED.LIMITED BEER CONCESIONS AND VERY SURLY STAFF AND USHERS.ALL THEY SEEMED INTERSTED IN WAS GETTING PARROTHEADS OUT.THE PHOENIX SHOW 2 NIGHTS EARLIER WAS EPIC.NICE STAFF,GREAT VENUE,NICE PEOPLE AND A SHOW I'LL NEVER FORGET.AND I FLEW FROM MAUI TO SEE BOTH SHOWS.MGM SHOULD LEARN HOW TO HOW TO RUN A BUFFET SHOW,WE ARE NOT USUAL FANS AND SHOULD BE TREATED SO,ESPECIALLY IN A RECESSION THAT IS AFFECTING VEGAS WORSE THAN MOST.IT WAS STILL WORTH IT TO SEE 2 BUFFET SHOWS IN 3 NIGHTS,4 IN 2 MONTHS.BUFFFET ROCKED,AND THE MGM SUCKED.

Want to have the most fun of your life with your clothes on ??? Head to a Jimmy Buffett concert ! The party started on a plane full of parrotheads and ended the same way!! No one was disappointed and we all look forward to the next time he plays close to home..within 1000 miles ! FUN, FUN, FUN !!!!

GREAT SHOW< I HAVE SEEN OVER 20 SHOWS AND THIS WAS DONE RIGHT!!! GREAT SONG SELECTION!!!!

This was my 5th Jimmy Buffet concert.. It's such a fun time for kids of every age. You certainly get your moneys worth and some!!! It's a great upbeat and joyful atmosphere. He keeps everyone on their toes, everyone is dancing and enjoying every tune of every song played. If you haven't experienced a Jimmy Buffet concert, you haven't experienced the best concert ever...

Jimmy Buffett plays lots of old favorites and new tunes. It's a treat listening to 20K people all singing the same songs. All had a great time.

All I can say is my first experience seeing Jimmy Buffett won't be the last. Everything was perfect: music, fans, atmosphere, tailgating. Everything was better than I imagined. Thank you, Jimmy.

He s still got it after all these years. Such a fun event with a room full of thousands of Parrot Heads. The sound was amazing and we were in section 104 row U!

Great evening!! Buffet put on an amazing show!!!!!

As always, Jimmy and the band were awesome!!! Played all the favs that everyone wants to hear and a few new ones!

As usual Jimmy Buffett is the extreme entertainer. Show is unforgettable the energy is unbelievable in the songs were phenomenal. Enough said

What a great concert! Nice job by Riverbend to host the pre party with cheeseburgers, margaritas and a live band. Best of all in only took 30 minutes to get out of the tailgate lot. Can't wait to see Jimmy next summer!

Always an amazing show but this year he made it better celebrating 50 years at our venue. We love you jimmy and the coral reefer band.

What a great show! Thanks for a great run of 50 shows at riverbend! Great venue for a concert!

It's feel good music. We took my father there (when he was an octogenarian) & he had the time of his life. Always a great memory. We had tickets to 2017 show long before we went on vacation. Unfortunately, my wife broke her shoulder down there (our Gulf Shores condo). Normally, the lawn is no big deal, but with the injury we debated not going. However, her sister took the initiative, spoke to people & we found ourselves there in the handicapped section. Thank you sister-in-law & Riverbend. We had a splendid time!

It was a great show and a perfect venue. Rained a ton towards the end and hardly anyone left. Great time.

There were anticipated weather issues so the thunderstorm was not unexpected. But at past Buffett shows, drinks were more readily available (unless you only want beer...or miss the entire show standing in the drink line!)

Jimmy played nonstop for two hours and was great but every time we go to the Wharf we get rained on.

Jimmy always puts on a great show and hasn't aged in years! We were on the lawn and there was a huge HD screen in front of us to see him and the stage up close. He sang some of my favorite oldies that he rarely sings in concert so that was an added treat. And the tailgating was fantastic with all the hundreds of Parrotheads everywhere! If you've never seen Buffett live, it should be on your bucket list. And hurry, he is getting up there in age!

So, it was really awesome that Jimmy played ON my birthday this year! I made an entire birthday centered around the show. We went to Murlarkey distillery across the street for a tour & tasting, then hit the parking lot for some tailgating. I was not pleased with the fact that the "early birds" to the show were sent out to "F" lot. Normally, the benefit of showing up early is to get prime parking near the entrance, not relegated to the farthest parking lot away. Regardless, we had a great time in the parking lot. Friendly neighbors and no harassment from police or staff. Not that we were doing anything bad to be harassed over, but the point is that it did not feel like a police state. We didn't have anyone watching us like hawks waiting to pounce if we stepped out of line. The line at the gates was massive! It took us about 15 minutes to get through. The bathroom lines were a bit long too, but moved at a good pace. The beer lines weren't too long... but the prices!!! $16 for a 20oz cider!!! After walking a mile, waiting to get in, waiting to pee, and purchasing our overpriced beverages, we finally made it to the lawn about 45 minutes later... where it took us another 15 minutes to find a patch of grass where we could throw down our blankets. Not complaining, just need to plan better next time. Instead of 45 mins to get in, more like 90 so that we can claim better lawn space. Once we settled in, the show was great. Jimmy was having fun as per usual. The crowd was having fun. My birthday group was having fun. I just wish Jimmy had played until the 11pm curfew. If we're paying that much money, give us a full show. I get that he's 70 and 2.5 hours on stage probably wears on him, but we pay a lot of money to be entertained. So, either suck it up and play longer, or get an opening act. Overall, I was still happy with the entire experience and would highly recommend seeing one of his show. Even though half of the show happens before he even hits the stage... in the parking lot! :-)

The premiere parking is worth every cent and the concert was awesome

Fantastic concert! LOVE Jimmy & The Coral Reefers. Like fine wine they get better with age!

This is one of the smallest venues that I have seen Jimmy in, and Loved it! In fact, if he performs here again - it is a must attend for me! The Venue was outstanding not a bad seat in the place. I'm not sure why it was about half empty at show time, but I waited if a very long line to get in and JUST made it to my seats (gave myself 30 minutes to get in) just moments before first strum of Jimmy's guitar. There are multiple things in play that could cause this, but I'm thinking it may be due to only 1 gate to get into the venue. Basically, give yourself a little more time to get in... Other than that - I loved the location, loved the small venue and loved yet another "Bubba" concert! (my 28th!)

This was my ninth time seeing him play in concert! Took my 19 year old daughter to see him for her fourth time! It's a mom daughter tradition! Jimmy Buffet always gives 100% and makes you fall in love with his music all over again! It's family friendly for young and old alike!

Awesome concert. Buffet is as enjoyable to see as he was a decade ago. This time we could bring our daughter and she loved it. I hope this isn't his last tour and she has many more opportunities to see him.

I've lost track of how many shows I've been to over the years, but I've never been to a bad show and this one was no exception. The energy and excitement that filled the venue was contagious and nearly everyone was standing, dancing and singing along throughout the show. Thanks to Jimmy and the band for another great concert! Nadirah Shakoor is an amazing talent, and I always love to hear Mac McAnally take the lead. The band's tribute to Glenn Frey was touching and nicely done! I do have to say though that the town of Daniel Island seemed to be expecting Armageddon to arrive along with Parrotheads. Was the Mobile Command Center really necessary? The police presence in the parking lot put a damper on tailgating with officers constantly walking by observing what we were doing. I live in SC but had never been to Daniel Island before. Can't say I'll rush back because although it was a very pretty place, the people struck me as incredibly uptight - definitely not a large Parrothead population residing on Daniel Island!

Once the initial shock of the no tailgating policy past, yes we started later than planned but still managed quality time , meeting and greeting. Size of the venue made it special and crowd was enthusiastic. Spending the day in Charleston was nice. Recommend the overall experience.

Jimmy and his Coral Reefers are always a lot of fun. Very energetic. The crowd is always happy to sing along and the atmosphere is definitely one big party of friends, whether you know each other or not.

Great venue its my 30th time @irvine to See Mr Buffet. Well behaved group no idiots Good parking @VIP section..Might have been the last show @irvine meadows..

Thank you Jimmy Buffet and the Corral Reefer Band for the "I Don't Know" tour in 2016. Going to a concert with them was on my Bucket list. The emotions were great. May you be blessed with many more years of performance. Please go see one of their concerts.

First time. Loved all the hits and acoustic sets, awesome. At the beginning and at time hard to hear his voice over the music. Maybe some kinks to work out. I was kinda expecting more video screens

Jimmy Buffet was an affordable concert for the family. His "show" setup was very basic but Jimmy and the other musicians/singers were good performers. This was only the second concert at the new Golden 1 Center in Sacramento. The sound quality was terrible from the nosebleed seats. The sound was very distorted so it was difficult to distinguish the lyrics. It was the venue, not the band.

Jimmy Buffett was great of course. I always love seeing him and the crowd!! But Golden 1 Arena in Sacramento has a lot of work to do. We sat in Section 217 and the sound was horrible!!!! The seats are narrow and VERY steep. Beer was $15. No thanks. Someone might have to give me tickets to attend a show there again. Maybe the lower section sounds better. Disappointed in the venue, not the show.

The music in the new venue People danced People dressed up People having fun Jimmy sang our favorites and entertained the night away The only problem it could have gone on longer

Seeing Jimmy Buffett at Humpreys on the Bay was absolutely the best concert that my husband, Justin and I have ever been too. Jimmy and the Coral Reefers performed many of our favorite Buffett songs, the acoustics ware outstanding and of course, it didn't hurt that our seats where in the 3rd row, seats 1-3, in C section and we could actually see Jimmy smile, sweat and sing his heart out. The security guys at Humphreys were cool and professional, particularly Edward and Scott. They managed crowed control and made the concert safe, fun and kept folks from trying to get close to the stage. It was such a great concert and it didn't hurt that this was also a birthday celebration for my husband. Absolutely unforgettable!! We'll definitely see Jimmy again in concert and hope to go back to Humpreys too!!

Even after all these years Jimmy Buffett still finds ways to enchant us Parrotheads as he transforms the barn in Wisconsin known as Alpine Valley into the Conch Republic of Margarittaville! The weather was there (AND Beautiful!!) Jimmy referenced it along with the time it was in the 40's and the time it poured...having been to every Alpine concert he has done since 1994 (The Fruitcakes tour) I recall those concerts! I remember sitting on the lawn in the pouring rain when he opened by playing an acoustic guitar on a stool for us "lawn people". Every year there is something memorable. This years highlight was seeing him play Gypsies in the palace (I'd never seen him do it live) and recalling his late friend/neighbor/collaborator Glen Frey who helped him write it, and then sequed into "Take it easy". Thanks Jimmy! I can't wait for your traveling carnival to return NEXT year! AND If you EVER find yourself in Illinois on the 4th of July...I invite you and your crew to Crystal Lake's annual "Lakeside Festival" where I "Beertent Bob" will happily make you one of my "special" Mai Tais!

Nothing beats Buffett at Alpine! Unforgettable experience. So much fun.

My 1st Buffett concert and it was amazing. Great people, great music.Loved all the Parrotheads and grassshirts. Definitely will go again!

Hot , Hot , Hot , not just the temperature! Thanks for the memories!

Jimmy Buffett was great as usual. His songs make you feel like your in the Caribbean. He is very entertaining. I missed 45 min. Of the show because of all the disorganization at the KeyBank Pavilion but once inside it was great.

Be sure to go early and participate in the parking lot party ! Almost as much fun as the concert . The key bank pavilion is great ! What a show ! Thanks Jimmy , the Coral Reefer band and of coarse Caroline Jones , you are fantastic .

This was the hottest nighttime concert i have ever been to in over 45 years of concert going. There was no breeze or anything to cool you down. Jimmy was once again AWESOME. Great music great pre concert party in the parking lot. Lots of fins!!!

Typical JB, fun beach party music that draws a crowd of all ages. Loved that he played On the Coast of Marseilles this year. One drawback, why did we have to open our sealed waterbotles and pour them into plastic cups before entering?!? It was 97 degrees....

Great concert!! My 4th Jimmie concert. Will go again

A Jimmy Buffett concert is just a big old barrel of fun. He played all the best songs and the graphics that went along with each song were amazing. The person who creates these images really does their homework, customizing the images to the location. Only improvement would be the arena. Jimmy Buffett needs to play at a Seattle area stadium; he would fill the seats and it would be much more enjoyable, with an added bonus of tailgating areas near the stadium. Hopefully when Key Arena is renovated the seats will be more comfortable - though we really didn't sit much for this concert; how could you?

We thoroughly enjoyed the concert! The arena was filled with fun folks on stage, and in the audience both, and it s music that instantly takes you away to the tropics!

Entertainment at its best. Jimmy Buffett was amazing he engaged the audience from the beginning and kept us rocking and reminiscing for two hours. The fans were actively involved and as much fun as Jimmy. A great trans generational gathering of people who just wanted to have fun. Jimmy s music never grows old.

I am not a major fan of concerts in sporting arenas, but I thoroughly enjoyed my first ever Jimmy Buffett concert in Seattle! The concert felt more like a gathering of friends. Everyone was in a good mood & there was a lot of audience participation. JB kept the crowd involved & made a lot of personal/local connections along the way. Music was great. The tour had a Son of a Sailor theme. The visuals were simple, but effectively added to the vibe. A great combination of JB classics, some more obscure songs, & some fun ones from other artists. A wonderful time was had by all. If you enjoy JB music at all, you will love this concert - along with a stadium full of your best friends.

Loved it! Jimmy Buffett is a timeless, barefoot wonder! And the Coral Reefer Band kills it!! My Attitude is instantly changed in their presence!

It didn't hurt that we had hot summer weather with no rain on Memorial Day weekend, but we had a fin-tastically fun time at the May 27th Buffett concert at Blossom Music Center. Jimmy & the Coral Reefers played a good variety of songs, many of which were those that most concert-goers knew by heart. The tropical images displayed behind the band took our state of mind to a whole other level. We definitely want to see Buffett again the next time he's playing in our area!

Go....just go; you still have time. He can't do this forever and yes Iknow this is only my 4 or 5th time for Jimmy...i really wish i could have seen him in his youth with Fingers in the band...just to witness his youthful voice...Sonofasonofasailor is a fun show...just go.

Jimmy was just as good as my first Buffett concert 30 years ago! His music and fun never gets old It truly spans the generations

Jimmy Buffett is one of my favorite performers. His concerts always begin on time & he sings old & new songs. JB never disappoints.

I have always been a die-hard parrothead, but this Buffett concert was perhaps the best I have been to. The music with the visual along with his typical Buffet laid blackness made a quintessential way to ring in 2018. We Margaritavillef into the new year.

1st time seeing these guys and They were Awesome.Great concert

The show was amazing! Hope he comes back next New Years Eve!!!!

Absolutely unforgettable evening with Jimmy, The Reefers, and Huey Lewis!!! Perfect ending of 2017 and beginning of 2018!

We so enjoyed the concert! Huey Lewis did all of his best hits! Jimmy Buffett was his casual classic self!!! So entertaining!

Enjoyed ending 2017 with Huey Lewis and the news performing my favorite songs. Jimmy buffett and the coral reefers took the stage at 10:30. He brought in the new year singing margaritaville, followed by auld Lang with crowd participation.

Jimmy and The Coral Reefer Band put on an epic show . Great set of his songs with some top notch covers.

Great way to start the new year great show by both artists

PARROTHEADS from around the world showed out and made this one of the best concert settings in recent years. I don't know why he doesn't perform here every year?

Jimmy is never disappointing, this show was the best I ve seen in a long, long time. A smaller venue, nice that it was all acoustic, beautiful setting, the last show of his I Don t Know Tour, was nothing but spectacular! We are discussing making this an annual event! Thank you Mr. Buffett, Thank you Hawaii

It's was the best Birthday present for my hubbys 48th. We loved it and had a GREAT TIME!!!!!!!

What a fantastic concert. Jimmy put on a fabulous performance along with his band.

Great fun. Jimmy loved the audience and the sound was just right!!

Jimmy Buffett still puts on a super fun show. I loved every minute. Even though we were in the "cheap" seats, our view was not obstructed and we could see and hear everything. And I saved enough money to afford a t-shirt, which cost as much as the seat. Besides playing all of the fan favorites, Margaritaville, Fins, Volcano, A Pirate Looks at 40, Changes in Latitudes, he also did tributes to his fallen friends, Tom Petty, Glenn Frey and Jerry Garcia as well as let Mac McAnally take the stage for a bit. This parrothead is so glad she went!

Jimmy and the Coral Reefers were fabulous! Voices were great! Set list was terrific. Can't wait til next summer.

The concert at Jones Beach was great. Jimmy Buffett delivers a feel good show every time. Weather was perfect and the crowd was great. Opening act Huey Lewis was a great opening act, one of the best.

Jimmy Buffett and the band were well rested and really ready to put on another AWESOME SHOW!!!! Very simple set up this year which to me make it even more relaxed!! Tons of music and a nice bonus with Huey Lewis and the News opening the show. They were fun too...

2nd time seeing Jimmy Buffet. He puts on a great show and the tailgating was awesome.

I loved watching the concert from West Riverfront Park. It was a beautiful night for an outdoor show. I loved the music, Jimmy Buffett's humor and the fun crowd.

Good concert overall, nice venue, well organized, not worth the money. Seats too close together, way too expensive for the entertainment.

Aside from the expensive rate of $60 to park and tailgate right there, it was the best venue for him by far. I've seen him at Pine Knob/DTE and Comerica. The sound quality was great, the surroundings of the city, Ambassador Bridge, the river with tons of boats and Canada lit up was a sight to see. I had floor seats (I sold these lawn seats and upgraded) and although the sections were a little confusing to figure out, you could see him from any actual seat. There were plenty of bathrooms and vendors around too.

Jimmy Buffett has the best time on stage and his concert goers have the best time before and during his concerts. If you've never been, GO! There are no strangers to a parrot head. Such a fabulous time, year after year!

Once again, another great show by Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefers. I give 4 stars as last year I was spoiled by amazing seats in the pavilion and this year I was back out on the lawn. A couple of my personal favorites were not played, but it would be difficult for Jimmy to fit in all of my favs in one show. He did get to all of the big hits everyone knows. Guess I'll just wait till next year for more songs! But seriously Jimmy, please, just once, will you PLEASE play Little Miss Magic?

Outstanding as always, the music was good, the parrot heads friendly, the staff of Riverbend helpful. A great show and look forward to going next summer.

Love the atmosphere, love the crowds, love the yard, and love the music. Had a blast and won't miss it next year.... These weekday morning are getting difficult ! CAN WE HAVE A CONCERT ON A FRI OR SAT NEXT YEAR? Please !!

Absolutely fantastic concert! Very nice venue, lots of people\u2026 But lots of fun!

As always Jimmy and the band put on a great show. We were all soaking wet from the huge storm that rolled through but that didn't stop the show from going on.

Fantastic Show! As a band of lightning storms and heavy rains started at showtime a power outage occurred and delayed the 'actual' start. Jimmy & Mac came out and did an acoustic version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and told us to 'hang on' we will be right out. In a tribute to the audience fighting the torrential rains, Jimmy and the Coral Reefers came on stage and opened with "Surfing In A Hurricane". The crowd went crazy! Lots of dancing and singing going on in Orchestra 2! The set list was not what they had prepared before hand. This was the most ad-lib that I have ever seen Jimmy use. The whole show was at high energy and it was a hot one!

Perfect night, and the second time I've been to a JB show. Awesome time both times I've been.

My third Buffett concert.....GREAT! Two hours of non stop entertainment......wonderful music, videos and graphics! Mitchell Pavillion is a perfect venue!

As ALWAYS Jimmy put on another sensational show! Our group of 14 on the lawn danced, drank, and sang our favorites along with a sold out Parrot Head crowd! He always looks like he is having so much fun.

Great show! Nice mix of new, recent and classic Buffett! Always comfortable and engaging!

While I was disappointed I didn't see him tossing mullets at the Mullet Toss, he did mention it several times during the concert. He was personal and added Souther Cross, Sweet Home Alabama, and Stars Fell on Alabama to the setlist for his Alabama homecoming. The crowd was energetic and the place was packed, but what can you expect when a concert with 10,000 seats sells out in 20 minutes? Well worth the climb to the nose-bleed seats. I have "This One's for You" tour done and now I think I'll purchase tickets to the "Working and Playing" tour. So worth another trip!

Jimmy Buffett and his band put on a memorable show. Over two hours of Jimmy Buffett and his Coral Reefer Band, great back up singers, great band, all dressed in true Buffett fashion. Bare footed Buffett played the entire time except for one song, which was taken over by his lead guitar player, an amazing singer himself. Back ground visuals, tee shirts and shorts added to the Beach Party ambiance. Beach balls were flying and audience members were singing along, most dressed in true "Parrot-Head" fashion.

Absolutely Amazing Show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The selection of songs covered the spectrum very well; from new songs to the standard obligatory favorites, to older songs not played in years. The energy from the stage is phenomenal! Jimmy knows how to throw a party!

Never been to his concerts in the past. Always heard about them too late. Not only did I go from liking him, after seeing him in concert, I hope to never, ever miss another one! He and the Coral Reefer Band put on a wonderful show, full of fun. Makes me want to pack it all up and move to the beach. He still sounds the same as his albums....I am still in awe of what I got to experience at his concert.

I have seen Jimmy Buffett over a dozen times but this show was one of his best. He really gives the audience what they want. The sound system was crystal clear. His use of the video screens is perfect. Using the center screen as a back drop for the fan and occasional videso was fun. Using the two side screens for the close ups of Jimmy and the Coral Reefers helps those of us too far away or too short to see much else.

A class act, as expected. Instrumental, vocal, and entertainment talent, second to none.

This was our 2nd time seeing Jimmy and the band play Las Vegas. Unlike 2013, he seemed to be in much better spirits and not as mechanical in his performance. He engaged the crowd, told some stories, and, of course, played some great music. Would have preferred "Boat Drinks" instead of "Everybody's on the Phone." Missed "Scarlet Begonias" as well, which had been in the set other nights. Plus - not sure why Jimmy doesn't do the traditional solo acoustic closer in Vegas? But, overall, lots of fun (but wonder why the Vegas crowd refuses to stand up and dance!) Will likely be back again as it's just plain fun. (Note regarding the MGM Grand Arena - Be prepared for a very frustrating entrance/exit process. Everyone goes in and out the same set of doors creating a bottleneck. It's really something this venue needs to work on.)

As usual, Jimmy Buffett never disappoints! A nice mix of old songs and new along with Alan Jackson, Hershey was a great night for the labor day weekend kick off. Thanks again Jimmy for a little bit of summer magic!

Jimmy always puts on a great show,seemingly even better at this venue.Great sound,nice staging,and always keeps things rolling! Parrothead or not,go see this guy .

An incredible show as always from Jimmy and crew. He never disappoints and continues to be the consumate entertainer and story-teller, always engaging the audience. I've never been to a "bad" performance of Jimmy Buffett!
