Island Jam
Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band will perform Sunday, August 24 at Boardwalk Hall. Tickets are $66, $96, $156 and $226.
Jimmy Buffett’s music evokes a mood, an atmosphere, a whole lifestyle. Listening to classics like “Margaritaville” brings back memories (real or imagined) of lounging poolside in the hot summer sun with something ice-cold to temper the heat. Buffett has made millions off his booze-and-beach concept. But he began his career as a sometimes-folk, sometimes-country singer. After his tropical tales consistently topped the charts, Buffett had a hit machine on his hands. These days, his albums dish up more of the same, but who can tire of living in a Caribbean dream world? Surely not the countless fans who make Buffett’s summer tours a smash. With his recent partnership in the new theming of Trump Marina, his return to Boardwalk Hall is greatly anticipated.
