Fans of Jimmy Buffett were surprised to see the star at a Houston dinner party to honor his friend, John Alexander. 135 lucky people who were at the ZaZa Hotel on Friday were there on invitation to celebrate Alexander’s outstanding career in a lavish dinner titled “John Alexander: A Retrospective.” This dinner-cum-exhibition also features the Texan artist’s collection of 61 exquisite oil paintings and 36 various art work created from the 1970’s to the present day.
Jimmy Buffett was there to lend his support to his long time artist friend but none was more tickled than he was when David Berg, fellow entertainer and singer/songwriter, introduced himself as Jimmy Buffett. The crowd laughed appreciatively and uproariously when the real star, Buffett himself, stood up and clapped in honor of John Alexander.
In other news, Buffett is set to end his tour in Honolulu where his new restaurant “Jimmy Buffett’s at the Beachcomber” is set to open its doors to the public in November.

Jimmy Buffet, the business tycoon and the king of entertainment, is going to do a spontaneous show at one of his restaurants. The show is scheduled for April 9th at the newly opened Margaritaville restaurant owned by Jimmy Buffet in Glendale, Arizona. The restaurant is located on the southern part of the West Gate City center and is famous for its décor. The show will take place near the fountain area outside the restaurant.
The impromptu show of Jimmy Buffet is expected to begin at 6 p.m and very less crowd is expected for the show as it is not promoted extensively. Jimmy Buffet fans can get tickets for this event just by going to the venue and filling the entry form from April 3rd onwards. Only limited tickets will be sold as it is difficult to accommodate more than 4000 people at the venue. People will get a chance to enjoy the music of his band as well as the food from his restaurant.
