Hey listen...

Tomorrow (Saturday) will be my last update for a while! I'm heading to Mexico to do a gig down there for a week.

But, check back here everyday, because starting Sunday, this site will be guest-hosted by the webmaster and evil-genius behind the scenes, James Marino. (Other than the improved quality and hipper updates, you might not notice a difference.)

That's James on the right.

So, James will be the guest host this week.

But please, take this week to call all your friends and make plans to hang out with me in about 3 weeks.

Call everyone you ever brought to "The Hill" in Central Park. Think about all the faces you love seeing out there every summer. (Even those secret crushes you might have had during the warm weather months.) Think about that feeling we get hangin' together in the park.

THEN.... get ready to take it indoors!

Or call the box office directly. They're open until 7pm tonight.

And Hey!

You wanna be in a movie!? Seriously. If you come and hangout with me all next summer in Central Park, you're probably gonna be a part of a film that's being made this year about... um... about... uh...

me.

And, about what I've been doing with all of you at "The Hill" for the past 18 years. But the filmmaker, Dean Love, is gonna start by shooting the indoor things we do to break up the winter before we head back out to the park. So, call a few friends and make plans to join us on Thursday night, February 26th for...

"The Return to Merkin Hall"

I think in the next few days I'll be asking you guys to email me with song suggestions for this concert. Y'know, it's a nice problem to have.... having too many songs that people wanna hear in one night. So, hit the contact button and let me know your favorites, okay? (I'm not sure I know of another artist who's ever done that! Hmmmm. Kinda cool. Wouldn't it be great if you could email James Taylor or Bruce Springsteen and ask them to play certain songs!?)

Anyway... call those friends! Make it a field trip! GRAB THOSE SEATS!

Okay, one more day and I'm outta headin' SOUTH!

See you soon.

And sincerely...

THANKS for everything.
