I'm back in town.
Hey!
If you didn't leave town this weekend, or of you get back to town early and are lookin' for a fun (and FREE) way to close out a great Memorial Day Weekend...
I'm gonna be sitting in at the SGA Songwriters Circle later today. (This evening between 7:00 and 9:00) It's a very cool thing, one of those little New York Secrets I'm often talkin' about.
. 
George Wurzbach, the guy who wrote "Much Better View of the Moon" and so many other great songs, and David Abbinanti who you've all heard on ILTC (The Podcast "I Love the Comany") are both gonna be in the circle as well. (I love sharing a stage with guys like this.)
And like I said, it's FREE. Just show up a little before 7:00 to get a good seat.
The Red Lion is at the corner of Bleecker and Thompson in the Village.

But, again... I gotta say TTHANKS! Memorial Weekend Saturday... thanks to all of you who came out to Central Park! If you weren't there, you missed a very special day. First of all, Cassie Kubinski came out and sang with me. That was GREAT! Then, I introduced you all to the new song "Tom Cruise Scares Me". But, then the unexpected happened again.
(Thanks to James Marino for shooting and posting this next video clip. I'll be able to explain what happened a little better.)
YEAH, I was playing music and hangin' with all of you... when a couple came around and told me that they had just gotten married near the Ladies Pavillion on Hernshead behind me. The lovely bride said she wanted to tell me that as they were exchanging vows, they could hear me playing a pretty song in the background. (I forget which song.) But, then as they finished the ceremony the first song they heard me play was "Wanted Dead or Alive" by Bon Jovi. Cracked me up. So, then I asked them exactly how long they had been married... what... 10 minutes? She said, "No, about 15."
So, I asked them if they wanted share their first dance right there at "The Hill".
Damn! I love this town!!!
I played... they danced... we all loved it.
