Refugee 7 Report post Posted April 21, 2008 Jimmy Buffett has added some new dates to his imminent "Year of Still Here" tour, extending the trek into fall with a pair of October shows.The veteran singer/songwriter tacked the pair of warm-weather concerts--both in California--onto the very end of his current trek, which gets underway April 21 in Woodlands, TX. All dates are below for the 21-city tour. As previously reported, he'll also be a headliner at this August's Newport Folk Festival in Newport, RI. Buffett continues to support his latest studio effort, 2006's country-leaning "Take the Weather With You," which became his second consecutive No. 1 debut on Billboard's Top Country Albums chart. The performer also released a pair of live recordings last year: November's "Live in Anguilla," which captures two recent shows on the Caribbean island, and April's "Live at Texas Stadium," which revisits Buffett's 2004 Dallas concert with Alan Jackson and George Strait. The trio's cover of Hank Williams' "Hey Good Lookin'" from the latter set netted Buffett his second career Country Music Awards nomination in the Event of the Year category. The leader of the Parrotheads continues to stay busy with several other endeavors, including a new restaurant under construction in Waikiki, HI; a foray into the casino business in Biloxi, MS; and a new book, "Swine Not?," which is due in May.
