Show Notes:
Recorded Wednesday, April 16 2008 (9:00 PM – 11:00 PM) at Zodiac Racquet Club, Southgate MI
“Another season winds to a close as Greg, Mickey, Scott, Schmoe, and Mike review the Glendale AZ mini concert. And we bring back the fourcast, as Schmoe quizzes us on our favorite Jimmy Buffett performances. Share yours at podcast_at_northcoastcast.com. (Special appearance by Jennifer.)”
What? Another show? Yes — partly because Mike is still in town and partly because concert season is starting to heat up, we’re getting back into our weekly shows routine.
Re: title. You’ll have to pardon the slight paraphrasing of the song lyric. It sounds better, for our purposes here.
01:26 – Roy Orbison’s Black & White Night on Blu-Ray
01:26 – in Episode 65
01:55 – recorded April 11 at the Gothic in Englewood CO, available from the Live Music Archive at Archive.org
04:23 – compare for yourself: Pita Jungle vs Jungle Java
04:54 – which of course means next week it will be Scott’s favorite concert ever
12:32 – the 41st Country Music Awards, hosted by Billy Ray and Miley Cyrus, were broadcast two nights prior (Monday, April 14)
16:23 – as captured in Episode 20
16:39 – previously mentioned in Episode 15
17:01 – this was in 1992, but Jimmy also did three shows around the Fourth in 1993
17:57 – also discussed in Episode 63
19:07 – Mike and Schmoe are referencing the Roger Clyne lyric “The kids are lighting firecrackers, boom boom boom” from “Counterclockwise”
19:48 – this was possibly my first Jimmy Buffett concert too. I was too drunk to remember any of it, but I do have this cool tour button as a souvenir…

20:44 – available on my 1993 setlist page. The story behind this: I talked my brother into bringing his wife and younger daughter to this show. They were up in the lawn, and during the show a woman was coaxed into taking her top off for the cameras. I was mortified, thinking such debauchery would scandalize my young niece. I hoped that they might not have seen it … only to find out afterward it had happened only a few feet away from them! Jimmy made mention of the incident in his song introduction.
22:49 – no, I did not get mess up the title. I simply did not pause enough between “Night” and “live”
24:47 – available on my 1995 setlist page. I’m not sure, but it might have been Tropic Depression Six which was spawned by Hurricane Erin. The story behind this: I had clumsily given myself a head injury (hitting myself in the forehead with a tire iron while changing a flat, if you must know) and it required four stitches. The doctor instructed me to make sure to keep the bandage dry — and here I was, the next day, standing in an all-day rainstorm!
27:45 – Amazon’s link for the Music for Montserrat DVD
30:37 – available on my 1989 setlist page
30:56 – available on my 1996 setlist page
31:06 – available on my 1987 setlist page
31:17 – one which is available on my 1997 setlist page
31:27 – one which is available on my 1992 setlist page
32:05 – as you can probably guess, the pretense of calling Scott back was because our big finish was recorded prior to the podcast, when Scott was still present
33:27 – Lake Michigan car ferry
Note: I keep forgetting my setlists site is so old most of the content is still in crappy-sounding (and, in most cases, no longer playable) RealAudio. I had intended on linking my fourcast list to the respective audio clips on my old LADI34T site, but I’m reminded it will be necessary to redo the clips to make them more listenable. Something new for my To-Do list. Stay tuned.
P.S.: the “banter” count for tonight’s show is 8

Excellent Show Mick, as always. It was rather gracious of Scott not to snore while he slept through our Four-Plays.
What’s RC’s problem with Jimmy?????
After that comment, how can a Parrothead be expected to be a an RC fan?
I’m no longer in a rush to buy any of his albums.
Excuse me while I start up the A1A album.

Nah – RC is just playin’. Remember – his favorite Buffett song is Tin Cup Chalice (instead of something more mainstream). He has Jimmy’s old bus. Jimmy’s record company distributed one of his independent albums. he was just working the crowd and caught up in the beautiful rock and roll moment.
But this inspires me. I think it is time to specifically work up a mix-CD of Roger songs that would appeal to a Jimmy Buffett fan like yourself. Stay tuned.
