Anti-Jimmy Buffet

We envisioned ourselves as kind of an anti-Jimmy Buffet act for the Fort Myers area - a counterpoint to what you usually get when you see a guy with a guitar at the tiki bar. But everyone seems to clamour for the National Anthem of Florida so we reluctantly added "Margaritaville" to our set list. Though it's one of those songs that is in grave danger of being completely worn out, it actually is kinda fun to play. So Saturday night, some lady requests it, which isn't really surprising. (She was an out of town tourist, of course. No local would request it since they know it will be played sooner or later by everyone) So we rendered our version for her and then her hubby jumped up and put our first $20 tip in the tip jar. I have to admit, that song is kinda growing on me.
