HAPPY HALLOWEEN, KIDS! What are you gonna be !?

THIS YEAR... I'm gonna be... uh... I'm gonna be a... a singer/songwriter on the edge of poverty and the abyss of obscurity just trying to eke out a living while making a small difference for the better in the world with his songs.

What? A stretch?

Okay... well, maybe I'll be a hobo.

Moving on... no more outdoor music in Central Park for another year. But the music doesn't stop.

But, we've got the podcast! Great show today! I'm playing a track from a woman I shared a stage with last night at the SGA Songwriter's Circle in The Village.

Yeah, we've got the podcast... "I Love the Company".

We've got the "Year-End Concert" at Merkin Hall comin' up!

We've got each other.

We've got rhythm. We've got music... we've got...

Okay... I'm gonna stop now.
