Maui Sun, Tropical Drinks, and Jimmy Buffett LIVE, I could get use to this!!! (pic) - GoFuckYourself.com

SweetT · 02-25-2009, 05:46 PM

So yesterday my girl and I are sitting in the lobby bar having a cocktail and just about to go up and get changed for our dinner reservations for the evening when the little lounge singer begins to sing Come Monday by Jimmy Buffett. Someone at the bar said "I sure wish I was at his show tonight" and my ears perked up. I asked "Is Jimmy Buffett in concert here tonight?" and sure enough he was suppose to start singing at 7pm.

A quick look at the watch, however, revealed it was just a bit past 6 so I figured there would be no way to get tickets and get there. The bar tender said "if I can get you tickets would you like to go?"...I said OF COURSE! So I kind of got my hopes up. Ten minutes later he finally hears from his contact only to find out tickets were sold out. Oh well, I think, it would have been fun but we were just too late.

We begin the walk back to our room and the more we thought about it, the more we said WHAT THE FUCK....lets just go down to the Maui Cultural Arts Center and see if we can find some tickets. It will probably never work but hey, it is worth a try.

So, it is by now 6:30 with the concert starting in an hour....we hop in the jeep...still in our beachwear....and head down to the amphitheater. It is a 30 minute drive with no traffic so I knew we were cutting it close. I guess since we were so late, the traffic just flew all the way to the event. Of course, the "close" parking was all sold out but there was one spot only a little walk away that we were able to get for $5.....yes, $5.

A quick walk up to the venue provides us with about a 60 year old, silver haired, well tanned and fit dude who is talking on his cell phone but is holding 2 tickets in that proverbial "it's illegal, but i am trying" pose. We locked eyes as I walked closer and he said "want a hell of a deal on some great seats?". That was music to my ears. He said "I got 2 on the 7th row just left of center. Face value is $125, but you can have them for $100 each". Of course, I was like "where do I sign?".

Now, I get nervous. This was just too easy. I am walking into the amphitheater, the lights are just beginning to go down, the steel drum is starting up and I am thinking that I am going to find out the tickets are either bogus or are on the 7th row of the upper level.

Come to find out when we got to our seats that we were not, in fact, in the 7th row from the stage....but the 6TH ROW!!!!

We took our seats as Jimmy Buffett walked out on stage!! What a night it was!!!

I have had some great experiences in my life, but this one goes to show you that if you are just willing to try you can create the memory of a lifetime for $205 (including parking) ;)

Great Story T... And such a true statement, if you don't try you will never know -)

BV · 02-25-2009, 06:37 PM

Great story,

reminded me of the time I was in the ticket line at the gator nationals and looked down and found a laminated unlimited access pass right at my feet amidst the litter.

Marcus Aurelius · 02-25-2009, 06:43 PM

Saw him here in ATL some years back. Was a great show, the party in the parking lot before the show was the major attraction, someone had even brought in a full size 30 foot round, above ground pool, and had set it up in the parking lot, filled it with water and had a huge party going on. Massive screens on either side of the stage showed videos taken from earlier in the day, lots of tit flashing, drunken fun. Was a good time all around, buffett puts on a good show.

pimplink · 02-25-2009, 09:31 PM

superb story

Spunky · 02-25-2009, 10:06 PM

TheAmericanCannibal · 02-26-2009, 10:13 AM

Great story T!

I have made some magic mysepf just for having the balls and patience sometimes to go through with my last second compulsions!

I hate Jimmy Buffett- but while in Maui, I'd go see him and probably love him. Jimmy makes some serious "fuck you" money.

Enjoy your trip, and if you go to Leilani's at Whalers Village tell the "Dude" ( you'll get it when you see him)
Aaliyah and KB say hello....

You can't mistake the waiter...he looks like Nick Nolte from the mugshot pic-

UFGators2007 · 02-26-2009, 10:46 AM

JP-pornshooter · 02-26-2009, 11:33 AM

i love Buffett.. saw him in concert in Irvine,CA but was a little dissapointed. i kinda got the feeling that he is much more fun on home turf in the gulf of mexico or Caribbean somewhere.. where the rum flows.

Poppy · 02-26-2009, 12:08 PM
