Hey welcome to the website, especially if you're new around here!

Take a few minutes to look around, see what all this is about. But most importantly, check out the podcast... "I Love the Company".

Oh yeah... and you can still donwload the one of the newest works-in-progress (The Religion Song) for FREE by clicking on the photo at the end of this update.

But first... click on this logo to hear "I Love the Company". (Then call or email a few friends and ask them to do the same.)

Or, download it to listen whenever and wherever you want.

There are more and more people listening to this show every day in different parts of the country and different parts of the world. And honestly, it feels like this whole podcasting thing is just an extension of what I've been doing with a guitar on my shoulder in Central Park. I play songs for people... where and how is really not all that important. It's all music. It's all good.

It's just us.

If you wanna be a part of all this call and leave a voice message for ILTC. Just call this number:

646-224-8162

Today's guests are: Danielle Miraglia, Dave Buskin and Sid Bernstein. (As always, click on their photos to visit their websites, find out about them, where they're playing and how to get more of their music.)

. .

Thanks to every single person who headed to Central Park to hang with me last weekend! I hope I see all of you at Merkin Concert Hall on December 6th. (Tickets went on sale last week!)

Even though the show sold out last year, a lot of people told me that they couldn't attend because it was so damned close to the holidays. So, this year the show is earlier... on Wednesday, December 6th. (I'll be sending out an email about it at the end of the week. So, if you wanna be among the first to get the best seats, go ahead and follow this link. You can get tickets right now and every day this week!)

Um... or if it's easier, you can just call the box office number right now:

212-501-3330

Cool?

Oh hey! And, a big THANKS to Adam Curry for gettin' my back. (You hafta listen to my show and his show to know what I'm talkin' about.)

Click on this photo for a direct link to the show I'm talkin' about.

But, check out Podshow.com for the whole shebang!

Like James Marino, the webmaster of this site, and all the people who are close to me, he let me know that he "gets" what I'm trying my best to do. You gotta go to Podshow.com and catch how a man I never met kinda went to bat for me over in the UK and on the net.

Very cool.

It's time to update:

GEORGE W. BUSH'S TRAGIC NUMBER

Here at The Guitar Man website, I'm posting George W. Bush's "Tragic Number". That's the number of American fatalities in wholly unAmerican and immoral Iraq War until George W. Bush is directly responsible for the equal number of people killed by Osama Bin Laden in the World Trade Center.

If YOU voted for him and continue to support his war, I hope you will wake up soon. At the time I posted this, the number stands at 57. (Of course, more Americans and Iraqis have probably died while you're reading this.)

Harsh?

You betcha!

Live with it. Or, wake up! It's not too late. (Well, it's too late for those who are dead or dying. But, it's not too late for you. As John Lennon said, "I hope someday you will join us.")

Okay, before I get outta here I'm gonna ask you all to check out the MySpace page. And, when you do I'd like you to sign up as a friend. I'm very new on the damned thing. But, I'm really exploring the whole MySpace thing to see if it's gonna be fun and worth the effort.

Let me know what you think, okay?

Here's the link:

Oh and hey!

If you wanna hear the roughs of my newest song... the song about one of the greatest engines of human conflict ever devised, click on this photo! It's "The Religion Song" and it's brand new.

If you've been comin' around for a while, thanks for always showing up... here and in the park. And if you're brand new here, take a look around. There's a lot of cool stuff on this site. And, you can go back and listen through a whole bunch of the previous Podcasts. Actually... you can go back and listen to all of them if you have the time.

You can also email me about anything you want by clicking on that "Contact" button over there. I can't answer all the email I get these days. But I promise I read every single one.

Thanks again.
