Thanks so much for stopping by. If you're reading this in another part of the country... welcome.

Well, the tickets for the next concert at Columbia Artists (CAMI) Hall were on sale this week. There are still plenty left. But, it occurred to me that I never told you guys what shape that show is gonna take that night. But, an idea came to me this morning!

And, I think it's gonna be a VERY special night.

Now, I've gotta work out some of the details this weekend and get back to you about it. But, if this works out, you're gonna wanna be there on Friday Night, March 4th.

(Besides, it also just hit me... the date for this concert is actually 3-4-5. That's not gonna happen again for a thousand years, is it?) Don't think that means anything... but, it's kinda cool.

Now... if YOU wanna be part of that audience and actually be a part of the show, reserve your seats soon. You can just click on that button over there, right now, aand make sure you're there that night. But listen... when you reserve a spot for that concert, you don't get tickets in the physical sense. Instead, you're name is automatically placed on the "guest" list. So, all you hafta do is show up that night and give your name at the door. Or, you can just show up that night and pay at the door. The seating is general admission.

Listen, if you haven't done it yet, James (webmaster) has made it easy for you to listen to, or download, the new song "JesusLand" right here at the website for free for a while. (It'll be going to iTunes soon.)

MP3 of Jesusland! Click to download or play.

We worked hard on getting this song right. Hope you guys enjoy it. It's FREE.

So...

I was in the British West Indies when that whole Jeff Gannon/Guckert thing broke at the White House. I swear... take a week and go out of this country, and when you come back? The absurdity of the political and social landscape is stark and quite unbeliveable. No. I mean... just bizarre. Truly... a frat boy who started to believe his own press in the Oval Office... a big, bald, spooky puppet master, that most people know nearly nothing about, behind him pulling the strings... on and on.

And, now a press-plant in the White House press room to ask Scott McClellan softball, Bush-friendly questions, who actually turns out to be a gay imposter who owns and appears naked on these websites...

It's just crackin' me up!

I love it.

It just doesn't seem real.

Y'know, I know intelligent people who actually voted for George W. Bush! They're not embarrassed by this man. I find that fascinating and it always intrigues me. I wish they would help me out with this. (Having had experience in my past with denial, I can partially get my mind around it sometimes.) But, maybe it's the temporary respite from the day-to-day of American news today. I come back, and the state of this country is just toooo weird!

I really mean it... just a week. And, it is like stepping back into Bizarro-World. It really is. George W. Bush couldn't find a complete sentence with radar, can't answer a question, can't say nu-clee-ar, creates a false case and takes an entire nation to war, creates a training ground for terrorism, runs the deficit to the moon, is responsible for the deaths of... oh, maybe over 100,000 people... and, this doesn't bother half of the people in this country.

Hysterical, if it wasn't so dangerous ans sickening... and 1,469 Americans hadn't already gone to Iraq to die.

And, here's the thing.

This administration, the Christian-Conservative Right, and all those who railed against the sky about Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky... um... don't seem to mind.

Jeff Gannon!!!?

Ha!

I'm soooo fucking glad I wrote "JesusLand".

Anyway... onward through the fog.

Maybe I'll see you in the "Forum" later. Y'know, it's nice for me to be able to say, "I'm not a Democrat. I'm a registered Independent and always have been." But, it seems the right-wing conservatives who used to show up in the "Forum" before last year's election have all disappeared. Guess they're all pissed off at me.

(Huh... or maybe they are emnarrassed after all.)

Anyway, thanks again.

A note from filmmaker Dean Love...

As you may know I am producing a documentary about "That Guitar Man from Central Park". I would like to ask all David's fans out there to write me and tell me any stories you may have about David and his playing in Central Park and how it has affected you or what it has meant to you. I've already heard some great stories, but I know there are more that I haven't heard. So if you got a story to tell about David and his music, please briefly write it out and send it to stories@thatguitarman.com . I will be contacting people from the stories submitted to interview them for possible inclusion in the film. Thank you and I look forward to seeing everyone on the hill this summer.
