To explain briefly, a Parrot Head is a fan of Jimmy Buffett... |
||||||||||||||||
Jimmy Buffett performs a unique style of music that encompasses aspects of country, reggae, pop, jazz, and folk styles and mixes in a taste of the Caribbean. Jimmy, himself, calls it Caribbean rock. This is what Jimmy Buffett has to say about how the parrot heads came to be: "Timothy B. Schmidt (Eagles bass player) was in the band, and we were playing a venue outside of Cincinnati called King's Island. People had already started wearing Hawaiian shirts to our shows, but we looked out at this Cincinnati crowd, and they were glaringly brilliant to the point where it got our attention immediately. I said "Look at that!" Then Schmidt says to me, "They look like deadheads in tropical suits. They're like PARROT HEADS!" He yelled to me in the middle of a song. So I immediately took the term and threw it over the microphone - the people identified themselves with the term from the get-go."
