I think Noah said it best, "What's a little rain?" 

Looks like you are still having fun.

With music like that the rain doesn't matter.  Jimmy Buffet is an all-time favorite of mine but he doesn't get up to the Northwest very often - when he does we are all over it!!!

Great pics - looks like a great time was had by all.

I see a few Coors Light cans beside that chair. It looks like the Turtle is feeling no pain and no rain.

I have been to a few of Jimmy Buffet's concerts over the years.  He is a favorite in our household.  One particular concert comes to mind.  Carter-Finley Stadium in the rain.  Everyone was totally soaked.  The streets flooded in the low spots and you had to wade through them.  Most were knee-deep.  It took several days for everything in my wallet to dry out on paper towels and news paper.  Jimmy came out on stage and announced that they would not take a break but would continue to play since everyone was soaked.  Had a ball!!

Looks like a great time. I had some friends there and said the Who was worth every drop of rain.

I love Jimmy Buffett and have all his CDs. I went to one of his concerts and probably won't go to another. I think he put on a good show but you could not hear him or the band for the fans screaming all the lyrics and most of them off key. That was an indoor concert so it might not be that bad outdoors. I did see him many, many years ago at the Flora-Bama playing on a Saturday afternoon before anybody had ever heard of him.

I drink the occasional beer but Coors Light is not in my inventory. I was, however, pain-free and relatively dry as noted.
