Jimmy Buffett has shown he will do anything for a buck. I really liked him in the 70s, but, he became a whore in the 80s. (Just read one of his books. They're all about how much he owns.) And, his music pretty much died then, too. He will never have enough.

These have been popping up all over the place. They built one in W Irlo Bronson in the hotel strips near Disney. Then a big one in Jax Beach, right in front of where I used to surf just north of the Pier (Smells like piss in the AM now, and it eliminated the remaining free parking spaces).
Jimmy Buffet won't leave this earth poor that's for sure. |

I got nothing bad to say about Margarativille. The one over at Universal studios is a pretty cool place.
Can't be any worse that Squid lips or Grills, both which aren't that good food-wise but fun riverfront live music venues. |

You can bet it will be one tacky, oversized, parrot head mess. I saw Buffett many times in the early 70s (for free) at UF and he put on a good concert (and my girlfriends loved him, which made for a great night). Now, his ego and lust for money are out of control and his parrot heads are a bunch of overaged goofs who want to pretend to be Floridians. They are both a joke. (And, since the early 80s, his music is just a poor rehash of his old tunes, starting with "fins to the left....". Not a pencil thin or come monday among them.)

Something was going to go in that spot, Jimmy B's, Disney, etc. It really doesn't matter, that river front prop is a prime spot.

On the bright side....if the crowd at the resort is anything like a Jimmy Buffet concert, then going there should be an ego-boost for most people.

There's an entire Margaritaville neighborhood in West Orlando just outside the Disney property. The guy is most certainly rolling in the dough.

That entire neighborhood is certainly fully of doughy men and women wearing hula skirts made of shredded plastic and coconut bras.

I just saw the Buffett concert. He's 72. He can still entertain a huge crowd and outside a sea of floral prints, sandals and ponytails on balding heads. It's cliche to say he sings the songs we know by heart but it was fun.

Margaritaville opened its latest RV resort in Auburndale Florida as it continues to expand its RV park footprint.
The brand wants to open up to 50 RV resorts nationwide over the next five years.
Margaritaville's ventures currently include resorts, senior living communities, and a new cruise brand.

I used to love seeing Buffet at UF on the Reitz lawn for free in the early 70s. And better yet, the surfer girls I liked loved him even more. Every show ended up being a great night. That said, I wouldn't be caught dead going to anything Jimmy Buffet now. Jimmy Buffet trailer (RV) park?? You've got to be kidding. He is a huckster and his followers are all the "I grew up at the beach" wannabes. "Let's dress up and drink margeritas and get trashed! Don't I look cool in my JB Aloha shirt and JB coolie cup with straw wrapping around my head?? What about my plastic parrot and plastic flip flops?? Coooooooool!"

More than half of those old farts can't even swim meanwhile.... Buffett is swimmin in their social security $$'s [IMG][/IMG] But the $300 monthly HOA fees cover "Access to the Amenity Center (Fins Up! Fitness Center, Latitude Town Square Bandshell, Last Mango Theater, Workin' N' Playin' Center, Barkaritaville Pet Spa, Coconut Telegraph Business Center, The Hanger Workshop, Latitude Bar & Chill Restaurant, Changes in Attitude Bar, Paradise Pool with Beach Entry, Tiki Huts, Tennis & Pickleball Courts, Bocce Ball Courts) I would think it was a parody if it weren't real as hurricane season. ------------------------- Capitalism is based on the ridiculous notion that you can enjoy limitless growth in a closed, finite system.

I hate to say it because I loved his early stuff and he was an anti-establishmentarian. The girls I dated loved him even more and his free concerts at UF in the early 70s always made for a great night. But that underground legend became a total whore. I can't even stomach him anymore.

Problems Already?????...."Construction on the Margaritaville resort in Melbourne is slowing down because of economic conditions and site-work delays, and the target completion date has been postponed from fall 2024 to late 2025."
Economic Conditions?? Hmmm maybe not a good investment?
Hurricane exposure there is sketchy....
Will this be like the Amazon Mega building off Eau Galle?
Drove by the site it looks like full work stoppage?
My take is it never gets done, he bails due to ROI and Cane exposure hopefully I am right (or wrong) if ya want that massive influx of traffic and people.
