In part 2 of our conversation with John Patton, president of the Jimmy Buffett fan club Strange Birds of Little Rock, & Paul Tull, musician and Strange Birds member, John and Paul detail the community service work behind the Strange Birds' motto, including their long-running water station at the Little Rock Marathon, food drives with the Arkansas Foodbank, and recycling volunteer work with Keep Little Rock Beautiful at the Little Rock Zoo. They also describe the group’s support for veterans through the Arkansas Veterans Home and the new Fisher House in Little Rock — where Tull recounts helping fund a red guitar donated through singer-songwriter Thom Shepherd's Red Guitar Campaign. They also discuss the club's longtime support of Alzheimer's Arkansas, a cause tied to Buffett's own father, and how the group rotates its fundraising among several causes each year. Turning to Braver Angels' focus on bridging divides, Patton and Tull describe a club where members "check politics at the door," united instead by shared music, service, and what Tull calls the "sweat equity" of working side by side at events. They close with an invitation: the Strange Birds meet the third Thursday of each month at a local restaurant or bar, with more information available on Facebook and at lrphc.org.
