Okay... the weather is really unsettled here in New York City today. (And I personally think we're gonna get hammered with heavy rain sometime today.)

But, it's all irrelevant. I didn't get a permit from The Parks Department to hang out on "The Hill" to sing with you guys today. I hope I'll see you in exactly one week.

By the way, you might find this kind of interesting. (Or not.) You might think I could have said, "Well, the weather's gonna suck, but it's a moot point because I didn't get a permit."

We hear that all the time right?

Yeah, it's a moot point. Or.... the point is moot.

Meaning, well it's not even worthy of debate or discussion because it's irrelevant. It's a moot point.

But... DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE WORD "MOOT" ACTUALLY MEANS?

(This'll freak you out.)

According to the #1 definition in Webster's Dictionary, it actually means EXACTLY the opposite!!! People... I mean, EVERYBODY uses that word in exactly the opposite way.

moot (adj.) 1. a: open to question : debatable b: subjected to discussion : disputed

Huh.... go figure. What can I say? Words are important to me.

Okay, moving on. Yesterday I did a little commercial gig for Grey Advertising. Just a demo, something that's not gonna actually air on TV. But, I had a great time working with some really cool people. And, my "wife" for yesterday was a woman named Colleen Dunn who you all might have seen on Broadway in "Contact", or in the film "The Stepford Wives" or dozens of other places. We had a good time.

Okay, listen... I've gotta get back to work. Gotta work on some arrangements for a few songs on the new CD. (I'm gonna try to have it available for you guys this summer.)

If you're new around here, be sure to check out these videos and feel free to leave a comment of you like.

GLENN BECK SCARES ME

BILL O'REILLY: The Legend of the Big giant Head

Oh, one more...

STEPHEN COLBERT: Special Kind of Friendship

Okay, see you back here tomorrow with another update.

Also, if you're new around here.... there's a lot to check out. Besides being a self-described "possibility-junkie", I was explaining to someone a while ago that I'd also become a photoshop-junkie. You can hit the "Archive" here and search through hundreds of updates. A lot of cool stuff here at the site. FREE songs. Cartoons.

Thanks for everything.

PEACE

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.
