Reaction to Jimmy Buffett's death over the holiday weekend continues to come in from around the world and here in Pittsburgh.

Concert promoter Pat DiCesare told NewsRadio KDKA's Rob Pratt from a business standpoint, Buffett made unusual demands.

“He wanted 103 percent of the gross and I’d gladly pay that and I would pay that every day, if he worked there every day of the year I would do that because I sold more alcohol when I played Jimmy Buffet than any other artist,”” said DiCesare.

Jimmy Buffet died Saturday at the age of 76.
