Surprise Jimmy Buffett concert

Last night Debbie and I along with a few hundred other Jimmy Buffett fans were treated to a surprise concert. It was rumored as a "unannounced" free show at Jimmy Buffets at the Beachcomber in Waikiki. Lot's of fans and a few drunks came out and we all had a great time. Here are some photos of the show along with a short video clip from the show. He played for over two hours!
