The tour title references Buffett’s 2020 album release “Life on the Flip Side” as well as his “Songs You Don’t Know by Heart.” Buffet has been playing for years, starting his career playing in the streets of New Orleans and eventually in Bourbon Street clubs. In 1974, his song “Come Monday” peaked at number 30 on the Billboard charts. In 1977, the infamous “Margaritaville” song was born and spent 22 weeks on the Billboard chart at number 8. 27 albums later, Buffett’s music is known throughout the world, and has inspired him to formulate restaurants, hotels, residences, beach bars, and even a Broadway play called “Escape to Margaritaville.”
