So sorry for the late update.

(I guess in the UK it's reeeallllly late!)

Just had one of those nights. I've actually been working through some writer's block recently. And so, when a song started to write itself last night I couldn't turn it away. Laid down some scratch tracks until the early morning hours. Then, when I finally decided to crash my brain was just racing. Eventually fell asleep.

But, I woke up here in my favorite city on earth.

...and I think I'm gonna head over to Central Park to just, y'know, hang out with whoever shows up. I'll bring my guitar, but no sound equipment. (Maybe a big honkin' cup of Dunkin Donuts cofffee, too.) I bet any patched of grass that are still lit up ith the Sun so low in the sky are gonna be prime real estate today. Got that autumn bite in the air. Could it be the North Witch has come stealin'?

So, I think I'll jst head on over to "The Hill" like I did last week, lean on the back of that bench and kick some music around. (I actually have a chance to talk to some of you, then. That's pretty cool.)

But soon, I'll be heading indoors for the BIG annual "Year-End Concert" at Merkin Concert Hall on December 6th. That's become kind of a tradition.

Oh yeah... and use that number if you have anything to say about the SPECIAL EXTRA BONUS EDITION OF "THE WEDNESDAY WAKE-UP CALL". It's 24 minutes long and it's specifically about the signing of the Military Commissions Act , and why I feel so strongly about the things I wrote in the song "Where's the Voice".

For People Who Actually Give a Shit

(Gonna be interesting to see the numbers on how many people check it out.)

Okay... FREE STUFF! Here are 2 new FREE downloads. I'd really like to hear from you about both of them. YEAH! One of these is the song that has rocketted around the internet over the past week or so. Okay, okay... so, it's a parody. But, I hadda get it out fast. Blame webmaster James Marino for this one! (Well, and ex-Congressman Mark Foley) This came about during a diner-run on Broadway a few weeks ago!

"Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to be Pages"

The other is a song about one of the greatest engines of human conflict ever devised, click on this photo to get the song! It's "The Religion Song" and it's brand new. I played it in Central Park this summer, and it's getting some reaction around the internet. People are emailing and calling in from all over about this one.

Click on the photo for the mp3.

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:

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.

Thanks again.
