Adventures in Parrotdise

Jimmy Buffett is the world’s most famous beach bum. He marketed his love of Beaches, Bars, Boats and Ballads into a billion-dollar business. He sold more albums and filled more concert venues than most singers. He wrote three best seller list books and opened a string of successful Margaritaville stores/cafes. Buffett’s fans are affectionately known as Parrotheads. They are found in every demographic and walk of life and are among the most loyal fans in the world. The tropical appeal and “state of mind” known as Margaritaville exists in all of us. It may be the lure of the tropics or some other “parrotdise”, wherever, Jimmy’s music can take you there, and so can this show.

Jimmy Buffett tribute artist, Barrie Cunningham, has been performing Buffett’s music for almost as long as Buffett himself. He has also traveled many of the same roads and played some of the same places Jimmy played on his road to fortune and fame. Barrie takes the showgoer on a nautical musical tour. It’s like an ‘ALL YOU CAN EAT BUFFETT”. Barrie sings all the “Songs You Know By Heart” like "Come Monday", "Cheeseburger in Paradise", "Changes in Latitudes", "Changes in Attitudes", "Bubbles Up" and "Margaritaville".

This Jimmy Buffett tribute show also features songs Jimmy covered like Van Morrison’s "Brown Eyed Girl", and the CS&N nautical hit "Southern Cross" as well as hit recordings like his duet with Alan Jackson, "It’s 5 O’clock Somewhere" and Martina McBride, "Trip Around the Sun". Jimmy Buffett Coral Reefer Band members regularly join Barrie and his band to make this the most credible and authentic Jimmy Buffett show anywhere. Coral Reefer Band members that have appeared include Will Kimbrough, Doyle Grisham, Greg "Fingers" Taylor, Tom "TC" Mitchell, Amy Lee & Roger Bartlett. According to these CRB members, Adventures in Parrotdise is "the next best thing to being at one of Jimmy Buffett’s concerts".

This is the only Jimmy Buffett tribute show to play a residency in Las Vegas.
