Somehow, Phillip’s parrothead persona convinced me to go with him to a Jimmy Buffett concert TWO days before the bar exam. I’ve never been a big Jimmy Buffett fan, but Phillip loves the music and was really excited to have an opportunity to see him perform live in Birmingham. And really, I ended up having a better time than I anticipated. I didn’t know most of the songs, but I could sing along with Margaritaville and a few of the non-Buffett songs they played.
We had good seats - close enough to see, but not in the "pit" on the floor.
For me, the highlight of the evening was when Mississippi songwriter Matt Hoggatt was invited on stage to sing his song “Dear Jimmy Buffett” – not only was his song hilarious, but the “Dear Matt Hoggatt” response Jimmy sang back to him was great too.

It was a fun night and I was glad Phillip got to check an item off of his bucket list.
Just look how happy he is doing the Fins song!
