Editorial Review:
Over the years, Jimmy Buffett’s yearly concert tours have evolved into beach-themed extravaganzas. But as any true Buffett fan knows, to fully experience the fun you have to plunge into the pre-concert tailgate. This annual ritual can intimidate a newbie—and even die-hard “Parrotheads” need inspiration to make their parties stand out. That’s where this comprehensive handbook to all the great goings-on comes in. It’s got essential Parrothead information, from details about Buffett’s music to background on the band to stories behind some of his famous songs. You’ll learn how to dress for the show, how to decorate your car, the A-Z of tailgating tools, recipes for Buffett gourmet classics such as a Cheeseburger in Paradise and the perfect margarita, and much more!
The Jimmy Buffett Concert Handbook: The Unauthorized Guide Reviews:
Loved the Jimmy Buffett Concert Handbook! 
2009-11-05 - I loved it. Not only did it totally prepare me for my first Jimmy concert but it was a very entertaining read. It's got information on all kinds of stuff. Drink recipes, BBQ recipes, Jimmy Buffett trivia, Coral Reefer Band info, Parrothead info. It's got it all. Essential for any Jimmy Buffett fan.
This book was poorly researched and poorly written 
2008-11-29 - It appears to have just been thrown together. If you're already a Buffett fan, it's just someone trying to cash in.
If you're new to all of this--Do you really need someone to tell you how to go to a party? Lame.
Unauthorized for a reason
2008-08-30 - This is definitely not the first unauthorized book about Bubba, but
unlike the Steve Eng book that really seemed to irritate Jimmy,
this one wouldn't even get on his radar. Does anyone really need
a book telling you how to attend a tailgate party? I don't always
agree with the way Buffett attempts to capitalize on his name in selling
everything from burgers to glassware to mousepads, this is really
unnecessary. Save your money for drinks before the show. And don't sing
along loudly when you are at the show. Phans are trying to hear Jimmy, not you.
Good Concert Prep Manual
2008-08-24 - If you haven't attended a Jimmy Buffett concert, this book gives you the background to make your first one memorable. If you have, it is a pleasant reminder of why you go.
Great Book!
2008-08-21 - I really like this book -- in fact, I've been hoping someone would write a book like this for years. It's a great portable handbook to Jimmy Buffett and the Buffett concert scene. I'm definitely not a concert Virgin, but I still found some great ideas for our next outing, with some cool information about the band and the songs. The book is a good read and offers a nice view into our little world of Buffett "enthusiasts." (It also has a cool look and design -- but I'm a sucker for Key West colors!
