CLEVELAND, Ohio - When Mac McAnally plays shows nowadays, he considers them "urgent-care singer-songwriter shows" for bereaved or still bewildered Jimmy fans who are kinda figuring out what to do with their time in his absence."

That would be Jimmy Buffett, who passed away Sept. 1, 2023, at the age of 76 of complications from Merkel cell carcinoma, a rare skin cancer that was diagnosed back in 2019. It brought an end to the annual ritual of the not-so-mythical Margaritaville that legions of Parrotheads flocked to on an annual basis, to have a "Cheeseburger in Paradise" and some "Boat Drinks" and flash their "Fins" to the left and right.
