There were lots of stories and even some skits.  The show began with Fingers leading the band, and Jimmy came out to join in on &#8220;Barefooting&#8221;.  He immediately took over with &#8220;Meet Me in Memphis&#8221;, and the memorable night proceeded as above.<br>\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This is my first recording of a Buffett show, and my second ever bootleg.  It was recorded with an old AIWA cassette recorder.  I was such a novice I simply set it on the ground, at my feet; but the sound quality is still quite clear.  Incidentally, We were sitting on the extreme right, about midway from the stage, in the Pine Knob pavilion.<br>\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Although it&#8217;s rather common nowadays, this was one of the first tours where Jimmy featured a horn section.  Co-writer Marshall Chapman was also part of the band, and I distinctly remember Jimmy giving her a big embrace after they sang &#8220;The Perfect Partner&#8221;.  Another highlight involved a skit in which Jimmy throws a (rubber) brick into the face of Charlie Dallas, his rotund guitar tech (referred on stage as &#8220;Louie DePalma&#8221;).  The rubber gloves Jimmy refers to were actually being held up a few rows behind me (&#8220;Praise the Lord and pass the condominiums&#8221;).<br>\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Unfortunately the evening was marred by Pine Knob security, who were a bit too thorough in searching for contraband and, presumably, Fourth of July firecrackers; and many people did not make it in until halfway through the show.  Construction and a competing Rod Stewart show didn&#8217;t help either.<br>  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; As the second half began, Jimmy apologized, saying he didn&#8217;t know we&#8217;d had to pass through customs to get in, and he promised to play as long as we wanted him to.  He didn&#8217;t &#8212; the concert did end &#8212; but it was a great night.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>July 4 1987Saturday, 7:30pm RGHT: Row H, Seat 36. $17.50 Pine Knob, Clarkston MI A Parrot Looks at Forty A new addition to the Audio Island: now experience this entire concert in MP3 format!
