Why would we do that? But we were determined. Other concert-goers we met scoffed at this. We got a room at the Hampton Inn nearby (review on that as well btw) and were pleased to know we could easily walk to the venue. I read the warnings on Trip Advisor beforehand so. Due to ineptitude by young kids, who were obviously directed to do so by their superiors, we drove around for 10-15 minutes before getting out of the lot, because the closest exit was blocked by a parked car (!) and cars were parked to the fences which didn't allow us to get out of our area! THE MANAGEMENT SHOULD ALL BE FIRED FOR THEIR TREATMENT OF PATRONS! We left the show early when the encore started to avoid similar exit problems (not moving for 1 hour!) this year. BTW, the staff was standing around doing nothing while we waited. Due to "Jimmy's request", all bottles had to be emptied into cups upon entrance, which further delayed entrance, and the gates didn't open until 6:30-we were (mis)treated liked animals. We were told that single, unopened water bottles could be brought in and that the gates would open at 6:00-both NOT true. We got there very early (3 hours) due to parking problems last year. Just saw Jimmy Buffett for 3rd time last night (show was great, sound was muddled). After hearing about the issues getting out, glad we did! Overall, so so venue, it really needs some improvement to the parking area and better organization. We left after Margaritaville (before the encore) and made it out of the parking lot in 10 minutes. We had lawn seats, not terrible except that everyone stood for the entire damn show. Of course my wife demands a raspber-rita, something I could have gotten for $3 at the gas station we stopped at on the way in. $11 for a beer, $14 for a 24 oz "malternative" (lime-a-Rita ans its other incarnations). I thought sports venues were bad but this place takes the cake. Glad we did because the drink prices in the venue made my eyes water. Everyone was tailgating so we weren't given a hard time about drinking in the parking lot. Everything we found online said parking lots didn't open until 6- we get there at 5:45 and see a big sign that says "parking lots open at 3:30." Oh, really? We drove in and went in a giant circle just to get to a spot. The album debuted at number 2 on the US Billboard 200 chart and number 1 on the US Top Country Albums chart.Went here with wife & in-laws for Jimmy Buffet. In 2020, Buffett released his thirtieth album, Life on the Flip Side. His unique style of music, which he refers to as “gulf and western,” blends country, folk, pop, and rock.

Later, Margaritaville would expand to retail stores, casinos, and resorts. In 2016, the song was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame for its cultural and historical significance.įrom the success of Margaritaville, Buffett opened a chain of restaurants with the same name. The song, released in 1977, was highly-successful, peaking at number eight on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. “Margaritaville” was Buffett’s breakthrough single from the album Changes in Attitudes. The musician who built his empire from the “Margaritaville” success maintained his island escapism concept throughout his career. “I consider myself more of a performer than anything,” Buffett mentioned during an interview with Billboard. ![]() Although his recorded net worth was at a whopping $550, Buffett remains a musician by heart.
