“The #1 HIT TV SERIES FROM THE FLORIDA KEYS!”
Initital Airing November 4, 2010 | DirecTV on the R&R network Channel 354
Episode #1: “Staycation”
KEY WEST TIME starring Howard Livingston
Opening in Howard’s waterfront backyard with a fun loving group of friends partying, Howard takes us to two events from the recent 3rd Annual Coconut Castaways Getaway—themed Meet Me in The Keys. First stop is a Mile Marker 24 concert on the water at Picnic Island, followed by a mixology segment at the Key West Yacht Club. Back at Howard’s dock, we’re treated to “What’s On The Grill” segment with John Myers from Boondocks preparing his signature Panko encrusted Tuna followed by a look back at Howard’s recent “Tunes In A Tropical Key” CD release party at Boondock’s. Next we find Howard fishing from his dock, reflecting on the sinking of the Vandenberg as inspiration for his song of the same name, brought to life by a sinking of the Vandenberg segment. Still dockside, Howard chats with Sir Peter Anderson about the history of the Conch Republic and the Annual Conch Republic Independence Celebration, followed Hula Bill and the Hulaettes. The final segment showcases Howard sharing his inspiration in writing his song “Staycation” with his friends and performance with musical guest Tim McAlpine
My uncle is one of the most amazing men I know and his mother would be SO proud of her baby! Congrats Howie! We love you! Tammy
Tammy WeaverCongratulations Howard Livingston & Friends and Conch Republic TV to a wonderful program! Now when the Keys suffer from intense overpopulation, you can “Blame it on the Margaritas!” Who wouldn’t want to be a part of your “family” Howie? I believe your mama’s smiling down at you from Heaven right now, saying “I did good with that boy!”

I loved this show. Every time we hear Howard sing, we love it, he reminds us of how much we love the Keys and why we love it.

Man, It’s not like being there but it helps. Up here in Ocean City, MD this time of year it’s a poor imitation of the Keys and there is no Mile Marker 24. But there is an ocean, fishing, decent beaches and fresh breezes. Attending a show with Howard and the band and his “groupies” is like a big party. Boondocks, Looe Key Tiki Bar, or at a campground……..IT’S ALL GOOD!! The Ramrod/Little Torch gang is watching. See ya next January……

Enjoyed the show. Made us homesick for the Keys. Fun people, great food, drink, music, water and sun. Hope to make the show on July 3. Beware of blue hats and orange shirts. Looking forward to contracting a serious case of Keys Disease!
Congratulations on what you were able to raise for the Kids Camp. What an amazing gift to give others.

Listening to you talk about Parrotdice and Big Pecker Wine reminded me of the first place that we each heard the other play music, set up in front of the bar at Parrotdice (in the days before the elevator) Show was great and looking forward to the next one. Nancy is in Austin for the week and I’m watching Zooie and kicking back.
Herschel and Nancy LesterBest wishes and congratulations,

Our internet connection is soooo slow. We were truly living on key west time as it took us an hour and a half to get through the whole show…..enjoyed every moment. Great job Howard and Conchtv.com. We are missing the keys and truly feeling the tide pull us back.

Hi there,
Just wanted to say that the Coconut Castaways are so proud and excited about Howard’s new show. It’s great to be able to “visit” the Keys on a regular basis now! BUT wishing it wasn’t just via the internet, too! It was so hard to come back to Iowa and get back to work after the Meet Me in the Keys event … gets harder and harder after each vacation with the Castaways!
Keep up the great work! We really appreciate it!

Howard, Dale and Teresa Wiersma (Michigan) turned me on to your music and I would have to say it is awsome! My wife and I look forward to being in the Keys sometime soon! Great show from a Michigan fan wishing he was on “Key West Time”

Wowie, Howie!
What a great reminder in the midst of a British Columbia summer, why we love the Keys.

Conch CanuckAlmost made me cry! Sure missing Key West and my favorite artists. Be back soon.
Bill GranbyAwesome show. Very professionally done. We were there and it was so much fun, but to see the end result is really neat. The Conch TV staff were very friendly and Howard is the BEST. Love the Vandenberg segment.
Jim & Deborah FenstermacherGreat show…we lov Howie in NC. :0)
Cuz DuronaI’ve heard so much about you and MM24, and I finally went to watch you…yes I saw the national thing, was it Today? Can’t remember, I’m a PH so….ya know. (Jackie & Dave Ballard/NC kept slapping me in the head with you…finally listened!)
Now that I’ve taken the time to watch your stuff I am hooked. I am especially hooked on Staycation…I travel almost all the time, so Staycation resonates with me….I want my home-base to be my….home…base. Lucky for me, that home base’s are SC, AZ, and NYC so it kinda doesn’t suck! If only the Keys were part of that….well, someday when I grow older but not up, right? Thanks Howie and crew, you brought me to the Keys is the way that feeds my soul 🙂
Cindy KekevianJust love the site and its content. Makes my day wonderful 🙂
Sam TurnerLivin on Key West time ………..
We love Howard Livingston and look forward to listening to him when he is in Key West.
