One week from TONIGHT!

Whoa! It got here fast!

Yeah... we'll all be in Merkin Concert Hall (near Lincoln Center) on West 67th Street.

Now, listen. The Merkin Box Office is in the Elaine Kaufman Center. (And, that's not an Irish name.) So, they are closed today. But, they're open tomorrow. (Sunday) Give 'em a call!

Or, I think you can get tickets online, anytime... by clicking on that link over there on the right.

So, why don't you call a few friends today and make plans for a fun night next weekend. Y'know? Maybe meet for that holiday dinner before the show. Or, come to the concert and go out for a drink afterward. Plan on making it a night to finish up another lap around the Sun. Because we always have a good time at this annual "Year-End Holiday Concert".

Got alot of fun people in the audience who I'm gonna try to get up on stage with me. It's gonna be a blast. And as always, be ready to sing... LOUD.

Yeah... it's a chance to get together for Christmas, Chanukah and Kwanza and to celebrate the New Year.

But, this week I wrote a new song for FESTIVUS!

I think I'm gonna run it by you guys at the concert. I'm also gonna do all the same kindsa stuff we've done every year at this gig. It's gonna be a real "feel good" night. I think we all need it. Nothing sad or angry. No political songs. Just one night to be in one room... sending another year out the door.

And, of course... Festivus.

Today, I've got a small gig to play in the afternoon over on the East Side. But, after that I'm gonna go out and see if I can find a nice "Festivus Pole" for the stage!

Actually, in an episode of Seinfeld from 1997 called "The Strike" George Costanza's father, Frank, explained what Festivus is all about. Click on this link!

Festivus (Part 1)

Keep checking back for more on this holiday... for the rest 'v us!

I think tonight I might do a little artwork and design a few different "Festivus Cards" that you can print out and send to all your family and friends. Check here tomorrow, okay? Maybe you'll be able to print them out on nice card stock and on the back, you can list all the ways the people in your life have disappointed you over the year. It will keep the spirit of Festivus alive in your heart. Maybe I'll even provide a link so you can make a donation to The Human Fund.

Oh, speaking of artwork... I kinda recently got out my pen and pencil and did a few cartoons. People are still emailing me and asking for them. I guess some people don't wanna hafta go looking through the "Archives" section.) So, here. I wanna give you chance to download those cartoons I've done in the past few weeks. Click on the image for the larger version to print out.

. . . . . .

I call them, "Damned Scooter!" - "Dad!? The Wheels Came Off!" - "'At's My Boy!" - "Who Knew Pants Really Catch Fire?"

Have fun sending them around the internet. Just make sure you tell people where you got them, okay?

Okay... see you back here tomorrow.

If you're one of the people reading this website in a different part of the country or a different part of the world, thanks for stopping by. I really wish you could join us at Merkin Concert Hall here in New York City next week. But, stay in touch here at the website, okay? Maybe we'll record the show and make it available later as a Podcast or something download-able. And, if you wanna email me about anything at all... just click on that "Contact" button over there. I can't answer all the emails I get, but I promise that I read every single one.

Thanks again
