"Your Portal To Paradise"
|
|
|
Thank you for visiting us here at Tropical Dreams. Grab a cold Boat Drink, slip in a Buffett CD and take a tour of our island "paradise."
Our goal is to make Tropical Dreams your one-stop resource center for the things Parrotheads need to be "livin' out the lyrics Buffett wrote."
"If angst is your diet and serious thought is your idea of recreation, PLEASE DON'T STOP HERE. But, if you like the beach, need some escapism and like to laugh, stomp and dance, you've come to the right place!"

What do you call it....."Buffettesque," "Island Music," "Gulf & Western," "Caribilly?" Well, we tend to call it "Trop Rock" and we have the definitive listing of those musicians whose music forms the backdrop of our lives.
Whether it's your favorite JB cover band or that obscure new artist that everybody's raving about, we've got the lowdown in our Artist Roster!
