Fins Up

This is the ultimate classic Buffett party song. I remember at a show in Raleigh just after the warm up band quit playing we heard the introductory song from the movie "Jaws" start and everyone knew what was coming next. Soon a giant shark rose up from the stage and Jimmy leaped out of it. The rest of the show was pandemonium. The genesis of this song was a scene in the Quarter Deck bar in Daytona where Jimmy watched a group of "land sharks" hit on a beach babe as she entered the bar. The rest became one of his greatest party songs. Fins Left
