Inside this issue: We helped raise $43,809 for charitable causes last year, and logged 664 State of the Club from 1 "parrothead" hours working for charity. We did it through big events, such as our the WAPHC President New Year's Eve Cruise, and support of the Fostering the Future Cruise, and through "grass roots" events that all of you helped plan and participate in such as WAPHC Celebrates July 2 4th with Island Style bike rides, walks, collections, clean-ups, and parties that really did have a purpose. WAPHC New Year’s Eve 3 We did it in our "free" time, when we weren't being consultants and Cruise computer programmers and public servants and teachers and lawyers and medical professionals and moms and dads and husbands and wives and the hundreds of WAPHC Supports the 4-5 other roles that each of us play in our busy lives.

Volume 4 Issue 1 WE ARE THE PEOPLE OUR PARENTS WARNEDWARNED US ABOUT PAGE 3 Another New Year’s Cruise a Huge Success - by MariJo Paul New Year’s Eve festivities started early at the bar inside our host hotel, the Sheraton Suites in Old Town Alexandria. Everyone at the Sheraton seems to know the Parrot Heads by now and go out of their way to make sure they have enough bartenders working. While cruisers were signing in, they joined others for drinks and appetizers. Raffle tickets were sold for chances to win one of the awesome baskets put together by our basket cases, Joanne R. and Drae. Ginger and other volunteers took turns manning the club store, selling cool beads, happy sharks and blinkies. All the while, a few of us were wondering, "is the boat actually going to leave the dock?" as the threatening winds kept blowing. Fortunately, winds died down just enough and just in time for us to head out on the Potomac. While some were munching on the heavy hors d’ouvres provided by Mango Mike’'s on one floor, others were having a hula hoop contest on another. Dancing and partying to Tom Principato and Key Lime Pie, heading back and forth to the bar for more adult beverages, served up by those awesome folks from Mango's who also take care of us so well, and visiting with our closest friends made New Years Eve another Parrot Head event to remember... Or at least one to have pictures of to try to jog our memories. As I toasted in the new year with my closest old friends and the new ones I met while cruising, I re- member (barely) thinking how lucky I was to be involved with such a fun group of people. The Cherry Blossom crew were very helpful, especially when we arrived back at the docks and were attempting to get everyone off the boat without anyone taking a nose dive into the frigid river! To top it all off, the New Years Eve cruise on the Potomac on the Cherry Blossom raised over $2,000 for our chosen charity, The Alzheimer's Founda- tion. A huge thank you to all of those who helped organize, set up, break down, and volunteer your time to help in any way to run this festivity!

I hope all of our Parrot Head members survived the winter and are ready to fly into some sunny warm weather. Things were certainly not mild or cold in our Berks County Parrot Head Club. 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.

    Volume 20 No. 5 Christmas 2004 COCONUTCOCONUT TELEGRAPHTELEGRAPH www.margaritaville.com A Place In The Shade My fantasy has been to find that perfect laid-back town by the ocean, the kind of place where the locals are all legendary characters who spend their days mixing up margaritas, where the air is always warm, and where the sea is crystal clear - a real Margaritaville of the mind. There''d have to be a bar right on the beach complete with ceiling fans and cigarette smoke - a bar like the one in the movie To Have And Have Not. Hoagy Carmichael would play the piano while Lauren Bacall sang. Humphrey Bogart would be sitting alone at the end of the bar, just taking it all in. I''ve been looking for a town like that, a real Margaritaville, for years now-maybe ever since I was a kid and my grandfather explained to me that you could trace a line on a map from our home near Mobile Bay, Alabama, across the ocean and wind up at some of the most exotic places on earth. Later on I majored in history at the University of Southern Mississippi, and I became fascinated by the history of the Caribbean. By then my mental image of Margaritaville had grown more complex. I took ele- ments from books like Herman Wouk''s Don''t Stop The Carnival, which is about a New York public relations man who buys a bar on a fictitious tropical island. Then there were movies like Donovan''s Reef, and the TV series Adventures In Paradise, which really influenced me at a young age.

  • The Jacksons - "The Unity Tour" 2013 - Vom Veranstalter Abgesagt
    05.02.2013 The Jacksons - "The Unity Tour" 2013 - Vom Veranstalter abgesagt THE JACKSONS Veranstaltungsort Westfalenhalle Beginn 20:00 Uhr Ende 22:30 Uhr Veranstalter MLG GmbH The Jacksons auf „The Unity Tour“: Legendäre Motown-Formation spielt ihre Hits bei Deutschland-Shows (fs) Auf ihrer ersten Tournee seit 1984 macht die legendäre Motown-Formation The Jacksons im März/April Station in Deutschland. Bei Konzerten in sechs Städten präsentiert das Quartett um die Gründungsmitglieder Jackie, Jermaine, Marlon und Tito einen musikalischen Querschnitt seiner fast 50-jährigen Erfolgsära. Darunter Welthits der „The Jackson 5”-Phase mit dem jüngsten Bruder Michael („ABC”, „I Found That Girl”, „I Want You Back”, „I’ll Be There”), Material aus der Zeit als „The Jacksons” (ab 1976) sowie Soloaufnahmen von Jermaine Jackson („Let’s Get Serious”, „Do What You Do”). Komplettiert wird das Programm durch Werke, die der Ausnahmekarriere des 2009 verstorbenen Michael Jackson („Rock With You”, „Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’”) entstammen. An der Seite des per Videoeinspielung virtuell zum Leben erweckten „King of Pop“ zelebrieren The Jacksons live jenen vielseitigen Mix aus Soul, Funk, R’n’B und Pop, mit dem es den Musikern bereits im Jugendalter gelang, soziale Grenzen zu überwinden und Fans unterschiedlichster Schichten zu begeistern. Die Qualitäten von einst zeichnen den Familienclan auch heute noch aus: Gesangs-Performance und Tanz-Choreographie fügen sich während der 90 Minuten zu einer abwechslungsreichen, stets unterhaltsamen Show. Diese bietet die vierköpfige Sängergruppe aus Indiana in Begleitung einer fünfköpfigen Band und dreier Backgroundsänger dar. Tickets für die deutschen Auftritte der jüngsten „Rock and Roll Hall of Fame“-Mitglieder aller Zeiten kosten im Vorverkauf € 25 bis € 100 (zzgl.
