If your spirits need boosting Tuesday night, look no further than the concert crowd at Riverbend where Jimmy Buffett will perform with his Coral Reefer Band.Parrot Heads started gathering early Tuesday morning for the 8 p.m. show.It is the first big one since COVID-19 restrictions went away. Outside the venue this afternoon, there did not appear to be any leftover caution.No masks were in sight.Instead of social distance, there was social insistence.Whether your fins were to the left or to the right, getting a shot in the parking lots around Sutton and Kellogg Tuesday had nothing to do with a virus.Derrick Stinson reflected the "it's good-to-be-back vibe."He sat comfortably in a truck bed filled with water as he sipped a beverage after driving up from Lexington to go tropical for the occasion.Patty Doak, head of the Cincinnati Parrothead Club, put it succinctly."It's like nothing happened and we're all back together again," she said.The Parrot Heads are not the only ones celebrating those “Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes,” as Buffett might say.Right up the road at Dead Low Brewing, Shannon Yi gathered the staff."I don't know what to expect from today because this is literally trial and error. Probably going to be chaos, but we got this," she told them as cheers went up.They've been waiting since the fall of 2019 for a Riverbend gathering like the one that is happening tonight.Yi was working up until her mom got there. Then they were going to see Buffett. They've been there together before, in a sense."She was probably like seven or eight months pregnant," Yi explained. "She actually went to a Jimmy Buffett concert. So, I think it was just like always meant to be that she and I were going to be concert buddies and go to Jimmy Buffett together."Dead Low expanded its hours for the Buffett concert.Staffers were not only pumped about selling pints, they were on a human uplift today. "People want to be social," said Paul Ganim, the founder and owner of the brewery. "We're social creatures. And that's the whole point of building Dead Low. Dead Low is the story of life. It's the minimum depth the river is navigable. And without finding dead low, you run aground and life comes to a stop."Tonight, there's a feeling of having come through the stop and a readiness to make up for what was lost last summer because of the pandemic.As Buffett says in one of his songs, “It's 5 o'clock Somewhere.”Margaret Plowdrey of Northern Kentucky summed up the mood."We've been so excited. We turn 65 tomorrow," she told us about her and her husband, John.They've been together for 27 years.She's a diehard Ohio State Buckeyes fan while he is all about the Michigan Wolverines. Buffett is their common ground."So, it's all about the celebration of life," she enthused."And COVID behind us, hopefully."
