Kenny Chesney just shared a detail about his tribute to Jimmy Buffett at the 2024 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.  Turns out Jimmy was actually on stage with them, at least in spirit.  Jimmy passed away in 2023.

Kenny said that while they were backstage, Mac McAnally showed him a small urn that he was hiding inside his coat pocket. And they were Jimmy’s ashes, given to him by Jimmy’s daughter Savannah.

Kenny then performed “Come Monday” with James Taylor, and Mac.  Before they sang, James Taylor told the crowd, “We’re three old friends of Jimmy Buffett, and we miss him.”

Kenny has talked a lot about how much Jimmy meant to him.  So, it’s awesome to know that even after he passed, Jimmy still found a way to join the party.  (People)
