We're not real parrotheads and thought this show would just be a fun way to celebrate summer. IT WAS! It was like a bunch of Jimmy Buffet fans getting together, and some of them could play the songs! The blues rendition of Margaritaville was a hoot and it's too bad the other reviewer didn't hang around for the normal version at the end. The Canyon's a great venue.

I have seen 4 other bands at the Canyon, all of which I enjoyed more than this show. It might have been because I was not as familiar with the songs that they chose to sing as I am with other albums. They did a horrible, butchering rendition of Margaritaville and we basically left right after, half-way through the show. I would not go back. I will say that I did enjoy the band, but the lead singer was no Jimmy.

We enjoyed the music and danced a lot. We were dissappointed a person at the Canyon told us it didn't start till 9:30 but it seemed like it started earlier and we missed it.

I was looking forward to the show. I walked out after 4 tunes. They had a timing problem. Band was not together.

The concert was great. I treated my family to the show (10,13,13,16 and four adults). The environment and concert were acceptable to all. The kids had a great time, from the Shirley Temples to the dancing.

We loved it...brought 7 people with me. We all had a great time and only 3 of us were buffett fans...just great. Food was ok...service was great. The Canyone Club messed up our dinner reservations but all in all it was great. I will find Garratt Wilkin and the Parrotheads to enjoy them again...

They where solid musicians who leaned towards country music. Looks like a bunch of guys got together who played Country and said Buffet plays some country sounding songs, lets do a cover band approach, pretend to do buffet but we'll really just do country. We went with an expectation of Jimmy Buffet and got country. We left around half time.
