If you haven’t been to a Buffett show and parking lot party check out this video. Also check out the article for more details.
The concert was sold out, drawing nearly 40,000 fans. I still get goosebumps when I look at the crowded lawn during a love song like Buffett’s “Come Monday.” I think of passionate White Sox owner Bill Veeck who said there was nothing as beautiful as a full baseball stadium. That’s how I feel at a Buffett show.
I’m guessing 5,000-7,000 fans were camped out in the parking lot before the show. Gates opened at 1 p.m. Showtime was 8 p.m. The rural setting of Alpine and nearby Lake Geneva draws fans from all over America, which is why Buffett makes this an annual stop. On stage Saturday Buffett mentioned people who trekked in from Colorado, North Dakota, Tucson, Az. and Hawaii.
If you like the video you can pick up the album, Ragtops And Flip Flops, from CD Baby. You can also find out more about Brent Burns from his website
