Hi all, I have to admit I was never truly in the market for what Jimmy had to sell - basically a daydream of sun, beaches, bars and not remembering too well what happened last night - but I can see how it appealed to a lot of people who identified with such a lifestyle, if only in fantasy and while at his concerts - one of which I did attend here in Oz and yes, the enthusiasm was more than enough to carry one along in a stream of general bonhomie, not to say virtual madness on the part of the fans and their Jimmy-centric dress sense...

He certainly carved his own niche and was able to make it extremely successful - how many other acoustic troubadours were able to create an empire of a billion dollars (that's right, a billion, not a million) based on their unique slant on things, and not sell out musically along the way. So speed on Jimmy, we will raise a glass to you tonight as we watch you in performance once again via the magic of DVD!
