Christmas in the Caribbean 2 In December we hosted another successful Toys for Tots party at the Christmas in the Caribbean Spruce and delivered more toys and cash to the Marines than any prior Afterparty 3 year. Things heated up even more with the 4th annual Christmas show Cabin Fever Festival 4 at the Miller Center on December 17th. The Club Trini band (Michael Photomontage I 5 Utley and Robert Greenidge) was enjoyed by all. Jimmy and the Parrots entertained almost 200 members and guests at the after party (in the Viva lounge) that included a “Quick Licks” featuring buffet and a few drinks. Through your efforts and your support of the show we raised $14,000 for Robert Greenidge 6 Crime Alert Berks. Toys for Tots 7 Winter Cabin Fever was next, and Berks Encore was the chosen charity this year. In our In Memoriam 7 efforts to make each event better than the one before, we changed a few things from 2011.

  • Coconuthead -.:: GEOCITIES.Ws
    Dave Pittman aka CoconutHead From 1995 to 2001, the band CoconutHead supplied the gulf coast panhandle with top-notch acoustic Jimmy Buffett music. Now based out of the upstate of South Carolina, Dave Pittman, the lead singer and acoustic guitar player, continues to perform solo as CoconutHead. CoconutHead is just what the parrot heads ordered! Playing a large selection of acoustic Jimmy Buffett tunes, Dave Pittman covers everything from the popular “Songs You Know By Heart” to the more obscure parrot head favorites. His song list includes music related to Jimmy Buffett such as In the Meantime, Chain of Love, and Suzannah by Buffett’s guitarist Peter Mayer, crowd favorite hits by Bob Marley such as No Woman, No Cry and Redemption Song, and the Eagles' Tequila Sunrise served up right along side Margaritaville. A long time parrot head himself, Dave Pittman knows exactly what Jimmy Buffett fans want: Acoustic performances with the intensity and freshness that Jimmy Buffett had when he started in the 1970’s. Let CoconutHead excite your crowd into a Feeding Frenzy with requests and audience sing-alongs. Far left: Dave plays on St. George Island, FL Left: Greg “Fingers” Taylor plays with CoconutHead in Tallahassee, FL. Right: Dave entertains the parrotheads in W.

  • In Just Three Months Jimmy Buffett Will Take the Stage at Jones Beach
    From: Joe Lombardi <[email protected]> Date: May 24, 2016 at 9:59:59 PM EDT To: Joe Lombardi <[email protected]> Subject: Banana Wind 5/24/16 - Summer Fun Edition Good evening METROs! This weekend marks the unofficial start of the Summer of 2016. Here are some of the METRO events planned over the next few months. Make sure to check the club website www.metrophc.net for information on these and other events. In just three months Jimmy Buffett will take the stage at Jones Beach. It's been three weeks since the request for ticket payment went out and fewer than half of the tickets that were requested have been paid for. That's not a good thing. For those of you who have requested tickets for the August 25, it's time to send in your checks and Self-Addessed, Stamped- Envelopes. Tickets cost $100 each. Checks should be made payable to the METRO Parrot Head Club, the Self-Addessed, Stamped- Envelopes should be made out to, well... yourself. Both your check and your Self-Addessed, Stamped- Envelope should be mailed to the METRO PHC Ticket Coordinator (that would be me): Joe Lombardi P.O. Box 8 Wainscott, NY 11975 Payment (and Self-Addessed, Stamped- Envelopes) are due by May 26th. A word to the wise, there are ten people on the "Wait List" for concert tickets. If your check is not received by May 26, and I have not heard from you, your tickets will be made available to the club members on the list.

    PARROT PRESS Metro Parrot Head Newsletter August 2010 NY, NJ, CT Vol. 18 No. 8 TALES FROM MY BANK OF BAD HABITS Well, the last couple of weeks were pretty busy for us Metros. Maybe busy isn’t the correct word, fun may be a better word. It was a pleasure sitting under the trees in the Fresh Pond Park at the family picnic, trying to stay cool in 95 degree weather. Many spent the afternoon in the water, a sure fire way to cool down. Lon didn’t. He spent that hot day cooking on two charcoal fires, and we certainly thank him for that. Joe coordinated the Metros manning the water stop for the Wounded Warrior riders in Amagansett. It wasn’t much fun in the heat, but very rewarding for those that helped. Then for several Metros, off to “Rock the Farm”, the fundraiser that ended the day for the Wounded Warrior Ride. Great music, food, booze and most important, great friends. And, Joe kept going, selling raffle tickets there for the event. Did anyone win a raffle prize there, I didn’t. Then, a week later, the first Metro sunset booze cruise, sold out, and from what I heard, a great night. I wish I was there. A great job done by Ray, Ralph and Fred. I think this may just become another Metro tradition. What’s next? Buffett at Jones Beach, Tuesday August 31 st . We will set up a tailgate to the left of the bathhouse, on the side closer to the venue gates.

My flying days go back to my misspent years at the University of Southern Mississippi where my good friend, BobbyVincent, introduced me to flying.
