Adventures In Parrotdise

Jimmy Buffett: The World’s Most Famous Beach Bum. Jimmy turned his love of beaches, bars, boats, and ballads into a billion-dollar empire. He sold more albums and filled more concert venues than most artists, wrote three bestselling books, and launched a successful chain of Margaritaville stores and cafés. Buffett’s fans, affectionately known as Parrotheads, come from all walks of life and are among the most loyal in the world. The tropical appeal and “state of mind” known as Margaritaville exist in all of us—whether it’s the lure of the tropics or our own version of “parrotdise.” Wherever it may be, Jimmy’s music can take you there—and so can this show.

Jimmy Buffett tribute artist Barrie Cunningham has been performing Buffett’s music for almost as long as Buffett himself. He has traveled many of the same roads and played some of the same venues Jimmy did on his journey to fame and fortune. Barrie takes audiences on a nautical musical tour—like an “All You Can Eat Buffett.” He performs all the “Songs You Know by Heart,” including Come Monday, Cheeseburger in Paradise, Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes, and Margaritaville.

This tribute show also features songs that Buffett covered, such as Van Morrison’s Brown Eyed Girl and Crosby, Stills & Nash’s nautical hit Southern Cross, along with his chart-topping duets like It’s 5 O’clock Somewhere with Alan Jackson and Trip Around the Sun with Martina McBride. Roger Bartlett, the original guitarist from Jimmy Buffett’s Coral Reefer Band, frequently joins Barrie and his band, making this the most credible and authentic Buffett tribute show anywhere. Other Coral Reefer Band members who have appeared include Greg “Fingers” Taylor, TC Mitchell, Amy Lee, and Doyle Grisham. According to “Fingers” and Roger, Adventures in Parrotdise is the next best thing to experiencing a Jimmy Buffett concert.

This is the only Jimmy Buffett tribute show to have held a residency in the main showroom of a major Las Vegas hotel and casino.
