It's beautiful day here in New York City.

Really sweet, sweet day. The Holiday Season is completely in full-swing. Y'know, this was another smokin' year out in Central Park. Around now, right after the "Year-End Concert" at Merkin Concert Hall, I always think back with incredible gratitude for all you amazing people who make me "That Guitar Man". Without you, i'm just another guy with a guitar near an open guitar case.

I love this town all year. And, I really love it at this tiime of year.

Hey, before anything else... the weekend show is up on "I Love the Company". Now, ILTC is a podcast... but, YOU DON'T NEED AN IPOD TO LISTEN TO IT!

Just turn on your speakers and click on this logo.

Or, download it to listen to whenever you want.

My musical guests on the show are: David Buskin, Alan Bennett, and Escape Goats. (As always, click on their photos to visit their websites, find out about them, where they're playing and how to get their music.)

. .

I also have a suggestion today, though. If you wanna have some fun, go back and listen the previous show, too. (#171) Lisa joined me in the studio again. I'm hoping she will become a regular part of ILTC. We're havin' a blast.

Lisa

And, make sure you go to itunes and subscribe to ILTC. Or go to ILTC.podshow.com. Because Lisa will be back in the studio tomorrow for show #173. I'm also gonn abring you another concersation with music legend Sid Bernstein this week, another Weekly Wake-Up Call, another songwriting session, and some audio (possibly some viddeo) from the "Year End Concert" in case you aren;t in New York city or couldn;t be there with us.

Good week comin' up on ILTC. New show every day.

So, hang with me all week and bring along a few friends, okay?

And, after you listen to the show, call me with any comments, questions or thoughts you might have.
