Keep the Party Going: A Tribute to Jimmy Buffett Don Johnson gives a wonderful and emotional eulogy of Jimmy, in part using Jimmy's own words Thursday, April 11, 2024 Hollywood Bowl Hollywood, CA
I worked on Jimmy's road crew in the late 1980s and Don often showed up at our shows. I found him a road case to sit on at the side of the stage a few times! Also, you misspelled Buffett in your title here.
Don was so emotional giving that eulogy. He recently lost another good friend and collaborator, Dicky Betts, who Tubbs also mentioned while going through Sonny's cassette collection ☹
A eulogy is "a speech or piece of writing that praises someone or something highly, typically someone who has just died," so Don delivered a brief eulogy. But semantics aren't the important thing, this was a night to honor, remember and celebrate their and our friend Jimmy. I'm glad you were able to experience it live too, what a night to remember...
