I also am a fledgling Parrothead, and have an unsatiable appetite for Buffett music, attitude, and paraphenalia.
Ok, I've heard and seen a lot of things getting "retro" and reminiscing the 80's. I'm not "jumping on the bandwagon," but I want to do my part to bring that excellent decade into the forefront of people's attention, and remind them of things from the decade that were worth remembering, as well as give my opinion on the whole thing. One of the great parts of the 80's was the music.
So many artists and songs
defined the whole attitude of the decade, many of them you don't hear much nowadays.
Here is a great site I found that can help you in finding

I also do have to confess that over the last few years I've developed into an avid Parrothead, and even converted a few other individuals into Parrotheads.

For a start in Parrothead conversion, visit this site: If you'd like to give your 2 cents' worth of thoughts, or have an idea for something to include in a page devoted to the 80's, OR have some interesting Parrothead contribution, drop me a line and sign my homemade guestbook: Or send me an e-mail and give me any input you like that way:
