For Nassau County's Jimmy Buffett tribute, concertgoers were waistin’ away again in… Eisenhower Park

Parrotheads transformed Eisenhower Park into a seaside paradise on July 25, as Barometer Soup performed their hit Jimmy Buffett tribute show.  Fans from all over Long Island came to attend the one-of-a-kind-show as a part of the Eisenhower Park summer entertainment series sponsored by NYU Langone at the Harry Chapin Lakeside Theatre.

Barometer Soup is a Jimmy Buffett tribute band, that seeks to embody the music and lifestyle of Jimmy Buffett and his beloved fans. The band is composed of veteran musicians from Indianapolis, who have been traveling the country for three years, looking to keep Jimmy Buffett’s spirit alive. 

Buffett, perhaps best known for songs like “Margaritaville,” “Come Monday” and “Cheeseburger in Paradise,” died last year at 76, following a battle with skin cancer. He was also known for his business ventures, including Jimmy Buffett’s Maragritaville restaurant chain, and ventures in hotels, casinos, liquor and retirement communities.

Barometer Soup had Parrotheads from all over Long Island flocking back to the heart of the county for a great night filled with a lively performance, entertaining vocalists, talented musicians, vibrant shirts and smiles.

Eisenhower Park will continue hosting various entertainment events, including concerts, movie nights, and international nights throughout the remainder of the summer. In a flier shared with Nassau County residents, Bruce Blakeman, the county executive, said “From thrilling performances to family-friendly movie nights under the stars, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.”
