REVIEW: Escaping the Reverse Engineered “Escape to Margaritaville”

“Escape to Margaritaville” is a reverse-engineered juke box musical fashioning the catalogue of beach bum rocker Jimmy Buffett into an abundantly sunny but soulless celebration of mindless inebriation and middling intellect where more fun is had on stage than in the audience.  Opt out of this branding venture, and follow the Parrotheads to a Jimmy Buffett concert instead.
