No colorful remarks, but here it is (around the 3:46 mark):

According to the news, he was "blinded by the lights".

And that's not even one of his songs.

Re: jimmy buffet

Jimmy sings a lot about booze but his intake is not what some may think. He was working alone and appeared to have it together.
The lights were quite bright. I think anyone Jimmy's age may have fallen.
I pray he's all right. I'm a fan.

Re: jimmy buffet

I think It's a shame, But I'm glad he didn't get hurt very bad. He's been an inspiration to me for many years. I saw J.J. Cale in about 1977 and he was sitting in a chair playing (he had a band with him) and some guy must have got too drunk and fell from the 2nd story balcony, thank God he was ok, but JJ cale never missed a lick, It was like he never saw him fall but he was only 20 feet from him. Now thats a whole different kind of professionalism....anyway Keep on Pick'in Jimmy!
