Parrotheads in the Washington, D.C.-area upset about new no-tailgating rules at Jiffy Lube Live in Bristow, Va., (where Jimmy is set to play on Aug. 27 as part of his summer Welcome to Fin Land tour), now have Buffett on their side.

Prior to the start of this year's concert season, the venue announced it would enforce its rule of no alcohol in the parking lot, as well as restrict tailgating. The parking lot will also not open as early as in previous years.

Anyone who knows about Buffett and the Parrothead culture knows that tailgating is at least half of the fun. When told there wasn't going to be partying in the parking lot, the singer said, "Who's stupid idea was that? … I'm glad to hear that. I'll get right on that. I believe I can take care of that. It must be some city thing, but it's not me."

The venue, formerly known as Nissan Pavilion "is one of the biggest tailgating places ever," he says. "We got time, I can really get into that. … I'm going to fire a little shot to the Live Nation people."

My Buffett Bling

Ryan C.'s Sig:

Well, I have to say that I have been to the place formerly known as Nissian and It was the worst experience at any venue that I have ever been. I saw Buffett last night in Virginia Beach and there was no tailgating policy with NO Alcohol policy. There was tailgating and people had Alcohol. THey had it in cups. I guess as long as the police didn't see it and you won't drunk off your ass, they didn't bother you.
