Caribbean Chillers
Headed over to Sumter Landing to give them a listen. First time hearing them and I enjoyed their music. Very relaxing and made for a nice evening. The center was pretty empty tonight which is too bad as people missed out. It was such a beautiful day and evening I thought more people would be out. We sat by ourselves on the porch so it was very nice.

They are excellent. My wife and I try to see them every time they perform.

I was there for the second set and enjoyed them. My good friend Gary Senator usually plays with them but he's not feeling well right now.
I didn't think that the square was all that empty. There were a lot more people than there were at Spanish Springs where another very good band was playing. It seems that certain bands develop a following and people turn out for them. Other bands who may be playing here for the first time don't draw crowds because people haven't heard of them. I thoroughly enjoyed the Amplifiers at SS last night as well. Certain bands draw huge crowds when there are other bands that are just as good.I guess that it just takes a while to develop a following. But people are missing out on some really good bands but not checking out some of the new comers.

The Caribbean Chillers normally get a big crowd, one reason is the Jimmy Buffet fan club Parrot Heads in Paradise in TV has over 1,500 members and has donated over $4 million to charity. The weather probably wasn't tropical enough to wear a Hawaiian Shirt. I've seen Caribbean Chillers about five times in the past ten years, they're a good show.
I remember reading a story about the lead singer Jason Webb not too long ago in the Daily Sun. He's been singing in TV since Spanish Springs square had the bands in a tent. He was in regular bands back then and then decided to form the Jimmy Buffet band a dozen years ago, and it's been great ever since. Parrot Heads in Paradise Club |

I enjoy them. It’s been too chilly for me. Yes yes. I’m a weenie. My blood has thinned.

The last time I saw them at Brownwood they would sing a song and then talk for ten minutes. It was not a good show.
However, I do like this song they wrote: Chillers Belleair 2.21.16 Fly In My Glass of Tequila - YouTube |

It was a beautiful night, pretty warm. They played about 50 minutes out of each hour. Little to no talking. Been coming here about 5 years and this was the first time I had heard of them.

My favorite band playing at the squares. They are good, they are likeable, and they are fun. I never quit smiling when they play.
