What d'you think?

I'm thinkin' the weather's gonna keep cooperating with us. I'm thinkin' it's gonna be another beautiful Saturday afternoon here in New York City. So, I hope I see you out in Central Park for another Labor Day Weekend!

If you were out in Central Park last Saturday.... THANKS AGAIN!

Welcome to everyone who's reading this across the country and different parts of the world. If you're out in Denver right now for the Democratic National Convention, I hafta ask... what did you think of my song last night just before Hillary Clinton gave her speech? (I was asked to sing TOM CRUISE SCARES ME and the new verse about John McCain went over... pretty well, I think.)

Hey listen... I'm still trying to figure out the video problems I've been having. Can't seem to find an easy "fix" on this one.

But I have an idea that I'm gonna try today, just to keep my promise about getting some video of you guys in Central Park here on the site so that you can tell your friends to visit this site and share in the coolness.

Also... I told you guys about an idea I had about doing an internet-video concert to have a "Conversation with the Swing States" about the upcoming election in November.

So, you can imagine how surprised I was when... well...

I was speechless when this guy showed up in the park last Saturday. And, breathless when he said he wanted to sing. (And incredulous when he took his shirt off.) But, what the hell. He wanted to sing "Bomb Iran" but I wouldn't let him. I told him the jokes he repeatedly makes about killing Iranian people aren't funny, and that the thought of him in the Oval Office is about as scary as it gets. So instead, he sang a medley of ABBA hits. That was weird... but safer.


This man is a nightmare. We have work to do.

(sigh)


I know there are always people visiting here who have NO idea what I do!

So, I very often like to make a few songs available as FREE downloads. Here are a few more...

CRAZY ON THE SAME DAY
WHERE'S THE VOICE
JESUSLAND
THE RELIGION SONG

Anyway... everybody, there's always a lot of cool stuff goin' on around here. I'm just makin' this shit up as I go along.. (Photoshop images, political cartoons, FREE songs to download.)

In fact... there was a Super Update a couple of weeks ago with a full gallery! Knock yourself out..

I hope you keep stopping by here every day. And if you dig this kinda thing, I hope you turn a few friends onto it as well. (If you don't like this kinda thing... um.. uh... how the hell did you get all the way to the bottom of this page!?)

The rest of you... keep in touch.

Thanks for everything.

A note from filmmaker Dean Love...

As you may know I am producing a documentary about "That Guitar Man from Central Park". I would like to ask all David's fans out there to write me and tell me any stories you may have about David and his playing in Central Park and how it has affected you or what it has meant to you. I've already heard some great stories, but I know there are more that I haven't heard. So if you got a story to tell about David and his music, please briefly write it out and send it to stories@thatguitarman.com . I will be contacting people from the stories submitted to interview them for possible inclusion in the film. Thank you and I look forward to seeing everyone on the hill this summer.
