Hey guys!

Online! Very cool! Online!

Online is a cool thing. You can do so much... "online".

Welcome to the website. Welcome to Saturday. (On warm Saturday's in Central Park.... you know where to find me.)

I'm heading out to Brooklyn today to run some stuff for the concert with the ridiculously brilliant and brilliantly ridiculous, George Wurzbach.

Are you here in New York City today? Are you gonna be in NYC this coming Thursday night?

We're heading back to Merkin Concert Hall this Thursday for another great night like we had this past December! I'm gonna go down to the box office on Monday so I can give you an update about the availability of the best seats.

The box office is closed today.

BUT... you can order your tickets online right now if you want. Click on this banner!

This is gonna be a fun show. Listen, if you've ever been to one of these gigs you know how much fun we have. We often wind up laughing as much as we sing. This time around I'm gonna be joined on stage by most of the same artists who made the "Year-End Concert" so much fun. Trust me, you don't wanna miss this one. Seriously. Emmy Award winning filmmaker, Dean Love is gonna shoot this concert, so you'll be part of the movie! George Wurzbach is joining me on stage again, along with Ryan Cavan, David Marcus, Janet Kirker and Chris Tedesco.

Tell you what, though!

The box office will be open tomorrow and every day next week up until showtime. Here's the number of you'd rather wait and call the box office directly tomorrow. (Sunday)

(212) 501-3330

I'm still coming down from a perfect... no, I mean Perfect with a capital "P"... week-long gig in Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo, Mexico. And, while I was there I got to jam a little bit with a songwriting legend. (And, really nice guy.)


Paul Williams

And, on top of that... I was doing a gig on the last night and Paul was in the audience hangin' out with a bunch of his friends. So, just for kicks I asked him if he'd jump up on stage and share a moment with me, my guitar and the people.

Click on the image to watch the video. (And, just smile, okay?)

Damn!

Fun, right? Mr. Paul Williams. And he's a really good guy.... genuine and fun. (I always say... the "bad guys" just glance off my Life and the "Good Guys" stick.)

Very cool. IF YOU'RE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE I MET IN MEXICO.... I hope I see you guys there, too!!!! (Go ahead. Make it a night to show off your suntan!)

Only days until we all get together in Merkin Concert Hall on West 67th Street.

Don't get sold out of this one! Call a few friends and grab tickets this week, okay?

If this helps at all, here's a seating chart for Merkin Hall. (The stage is actually designed for orchestral stuff. So, it's very wide. That just means the entire house is really very near the stage... very intimate. And the place sounds great! Not a bad seat anywhere in that room.)

BTW - pay attention to that dotted line. See? The balcony is like right near the stage!

Alright, I'm outta here. If you're new around here... I've had a lot of fun with Photoshop during the past election year. Here's an update that contained a SUPER BIG PHOTOSHOP GALLERY!

Oh, okay. One more song to download for FREE.

This one was actually recorded at a "Something-th Annual Concert" in Merkin Concert Hall back in 2000.

LOVE THIS LIFE I'M LIVIN'

Hope I see YOU next Thursday night!

Thanks for everything.

If you're new

See you back here tomorrow.

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.
- Dean
