Probably the most memorable Buffett concert of all. It had rained for three days before the concert, and it continued unabated all day for the show. The field was a sodden mess and the grass parking lot was worse. We survived the deluge and managed not to get too muddy either. Even Buffett was impressed, as he says here in this RealAudio interview clip.

Here are two song parodies I dug up. A friend and I worked these out following this waterlogged concert at wet and muddy Buckeye Lake. We sat around and tried to kill time during our three hour wait to leave the parking lot by coming up with these songs, sung to the tunes of "Don't Chu Know" and "Remittance Man", respectively. (For no particular reason, I used an online translator, from Systran, to come up with French and Spanish versions of "Don't Chu Know".)
These lyrics, plus two more from 1998, can be found in the Poetry Corner of my Library.
Here is the radio commercial for these two Michigan shows.
