A
decade before the terms "tribute-band" and
Parrot Head (defining the massive cult following of
Jimmy Buffett fans) had been coined, Col had made
a living playing music in exotic locations around
the world. From the pristine beaches of Australia's
east coast, to the then-remote island of Bali, to
the Eagle Cafe on San Francisco's Pier 39, Jimmy's
music was and remains the perfect soundtrack to a
life of sun, surfing, sailing and singing. Since 1975
he's been performing the music of Jimmy Buffett and
living the lifestyle at the same time. One
could hardly exist without the other!

| To
celebrate their mutual "First Fleet" ancestry,
Col, Lionel Aitken and ABC radio announcer Rita
Montebello, formed “Parrotfanalia”, the first Jimmy
Buffett charity-based fan club in the southern hemisphere.
On Australia Day, January 26th 1995, they held their
inaugural fund raising show, which carried the wordy
but inescapable tag of “Parrotfanalia’s PHirst,
PHirst PHleet Parrot Head Party”. With invaluable
help from Brian McCarthy, the club phlourished and
phloundered for over seven years and raised several
thousand dollars for its beneficiary, the Australian
Volunteer Coast Guard. For more information on The
First Fleet, visit Col's "Family History"
page. |

last Sunday in April in Australia is designated "Annual
Jimmy Buffett Parrot Head Party Day". "(P)parrot (H)eads",
Buffett fans, flock to Hog's Breath Cafes all around the
country to party and celebrate to the music of Jimmy Buffett.
After the demise of Parrotfanalia, Rita, Lionel, and his
band Montserrat, continue on PFanOz's charitable course
with their annual fund raiser, Party With A Purpose. |
