| CPHC Newsletter Hello and Happy Thursday! I hope everyone is doing well. We have a few club members who are VERY sick right now, with at least one that I know of in ICU. I won’t name names to respect their privacy, but please take a minute to send some positive energy to all of our fellow Parrot Heads during this unprecedented time. We still have no official word yet whether we’ll be able to have the April meeting.. but it isn’t looking likely at this point. Stay tuned just in case things change. *********************************************************************************** If you are looking for something to do while you are home, check out the FaceBook Page “Quarantine Concerts Worldwide.” Many of our favorite artists, like Mike Nash, Rob Hill, Donny Brewer and Sunny Jim are performing live shows on this FaceBook feed. There are literally performances going on all day and night, with so many different people from around the world. I watched a wonderful Mike Nash show last night. These performers are all doing their own music, no covers (due to potential copyright issues) and the shows are amazing! Tune in and watch! Jimmy Buffett has also started his “Cabin Fever Tour.” Starting Wednesday, March 25, every Wednesday and Saturday at 8 p.m. ET and PT. Buffett will be re-broadcasting shows from his live archives via margaritaville.tv or tune into Radio Margaritaville on SiriusXM. You may see yourself or someone you know at one of Jimmy’s past concerts! Here’s the full Cabin Fever Virtual Tour schedule: April 4: Live from Honolulu, Hawaii (2004) April 8: Live from Paris France (2017) April 11: The Millennium Show Live from Los Angeles, California (1999) April 15: Live from Australia (2011) April 18: Live from Mansfield, Massachusetts (1994) April 22: Live from Bora Bora (2010) April 25: Live from Hartford, Connecticut (1995) April 29: Live from Wellington, New Zealand (2017) May 2: Far Side of the World Show (various years and cities) May 6: Live from Dublin, Ireland (2019) May 9: Live from Key West, Florida (2015) *********************************************************************************** As of now, Jimmy Buffett is still performing at Red Rocks in September. He has rescheduled other shows in June and July, but so far, we are still on for September 8 and 10, 2020. The deadline to order tickets was March 13. I released the remainder of our tickets to other clubs, but I have had a few cancellations. People are thinking the concert dates may change and don’t want to pay for the travel. So, to our members who haven’t gotten tickets yet, email me, and I may have a ticket or 2 I can sell you. If I don’t have them now, I will put you on a waitlist in case I do get more cancellations. I can’t sell you more tickets if you have already gotten your allotted amount. You must be a member in good standing with our club or another PHC, in order to get any tickets. REMEMBER: A commitment to buy tickets means you are responsible to pay for them. Please mail your checks this week to: (The tickets are $165.50 EACH) Colorado Parrot Head Club % Robin Reed 7167 Dudley Drive Arvada, CO 80004 Please make check payable to Colorado Parrot Head Club Please do not ask me for extra tickets. If you have friends who want tickets, they can join the club and I will put them on the list. Cost $165.50 each We have had several people forget that extra .50 cents. I know it doesn’t sound like much, but with the number of tickets we have, we will lose a lot of money if we don’t collect that extra .50 cents from everyone.. so please don’t forget to add it up correctly. 2 Tickets is $331… and 4 tickets is $662. Ticket prices include a free download of Jimmy’s new CD, so if you don’t want your email address sent off to get this download, please let me know. If you do not let me know that you object, I will be sending your email addresses to the Margaritaville people so they can send everyone the link to download Jimmy’s latest album. ****************************************************************************************** 2020 Pete’s Summer Concert Series – So far, all are still on schedule as planned!

Events ****************************************************************************************** Jeff Dunham is coming to the 1ST BANK Center (Broomfield Events Center) August 5. The SHOW IS MOVED TO AUG 5, 2020!! Several in our group are interested in going, so we checked into group tickets. They don’t really have a group ticket sales up there, and we were not able to get a large group of tickets, but we did manage to get a few. We have a very limited number, so we will sell them on a first come first serve basis. The cost is $75 each. Sorry, we can’t accommodate everyone, but there are still tickets for sale, so if you’d like to go, and can’t fit into our limited number, please buy some tickets online. It will be a very fun night. “Jeffafa” is a SUPER funny! Contact Robin if you’d like to buy tickets.
