Favorite concert/concert memory

[brewens]

107. Jimmy Buffett in 1978. It was a nasty winter and promoted as "Tequila Thursday at the WSU Performing

Arts Coliseum". That was at Pullman Washington. Washington State University. Snow and ice and we wondered if it might get cancelled. We only had to drive about 35 miles so we made it just fine.

it was kind of a sparse crowd because of the weather and we had upper level seats. They had almost sold it out. Lots of people just couldn't get there. Jimmy saw us all spread out and said to move on down and get closer if we wanted to. That was usually not allowed, but since the show was well underway, security let it go.

I liked some Buffett songs well enough before that show, but seeing him live really made me a fan. That show was a lot of fun! We took the "Tequila Thursday" thing seriously, and were just drunk enough. Everyone partying in their Hawaiian shirts and jamming to Jimmy and The Corral Reefer Band let us forget about how cold it was.
