Damn!

I don't know where in the country or where in the world you're reading this.... but here in New York City it's around 63 degrees today and sunny! THIS WOULD BE A "PARK DAY"!

Oh well.

I have all the paper work in. (Actually, I submit all the applications and checks to the Parks Department in December!) So hopefully the first day we'll all be singing in the park again will be Saturday, May 2. Keep your fingers crossed. Let's hope both the weather and the permit office cooperate!

Y'know, if you've been comin' around here since my last concert at Merkin Concert Hall, you might know...

... i might be lettin' this situation with Stephen Colbert get to me a little bit too much.

I guess you guys have heard the news that my ex-buddy and new nemesis, Stephen Colbert managed to rig the contest that NASA was having to name a module on the International Space Station.

Yeah... when voting ended on March 20, "Colbert" had amassed more than 230,000 votes to beat out second-place name "Serenity" by more than 40,000 votes.

"Come on, Serenity?" Colbert said. "That's not a space module, that's a Glade plug-in."

So... it looks like the Space Station is gonna be named COLBERT!

Well, that's it!!!

Okay!!! Russian space satellites, spy satellites, government surveillance... that's one thing! But... the name of that right-wing, flag-waving, pompous, Bush-loving lunatic!!! How can we live knowing that his name is looking down on us 24 hours a day! I just couldn't take it.

Damn! And we used to be such good friends. (If only he would admit to the world that he digs my music and hates my politics!)

Oh well.

If you're new around here and you have NO idea what I'm talkin' about, you can hit the "Archive" and catch up.

In fact, here's a little gallery of some of the past images from the "Feud with Stephen Colbert". (I'm still workin' on the song!!!)

Click on the image to visit the gallery

Okay, outta here.

See you TOMORROW! Enjoy this weather!!!

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.
- Dean
