Nick Hexum, lead singer for rock band 311, has listed his private island in the Florida Keys for $10 million. He originally purchased the property for $2.8 million in 2003.
The six-acre island is about a half mile off of Summerland Key, which roughly midway between Marathon and Key West and is less than 100 miles from Miami. The 3,500 square foot house on the property features three bedrooms, a crow’s nest balcony on the roof where Mr. Hexum says he likes to play guitar, and a third-floor great room with a 300-gallon aquarium. The island also has a cement pier, pool, barbecue deck, and its own propane-powered generator. The island’s previous owner Cris Lesick says the electricity stayed on during Hurricane George in 1998, when most of the Key West Florida area lost power. Mr. Hexum renamed the island Melody Key from Money Key and has spent several million dollars renovating it.
Mr. Hexum, who has his primary residence in Los Angeles, will not accept an offer under $10 million. "Do not waste my time with $9,999,999," he says.

What a hipocrite. He preaches about about global warming everywhere he goes. Then brings people to his island to teach them about global warming and how they should be more environmentaly responsbile. Gee I wonder how much energy and resources are used up to travel there. Maybe no one here has seen any interviews with him. But in a nutshell he tells everyone that sea levels are going to rise to epic proportions and drown coastal areas and islands. So its an absolute joke that in the meantime Hexum goes out and buys an island himself and pumps millions of dollars into it. Don't forget Al Gore owns coastal property as well. This is just celebrity hipocracy. I also wonder how much of a Carbon Footprint he and his band leave behind from all the fossil fuels they have burned up just touring all these years. Or maybe its just the all Pot resin stuck in his brain from all the copious amounts of marijuana he has smoked in his life that effects his judgement and decisions.
