Like the old song by the group Chicago... "Another Rainy Day in New York City"
All cool. another good day for a bunch of "inside work". (Both kinds)
But, I just wrapped another amazing year out in Central Park and I'm really looking forward to... the next thing.
TOMORROW... something really cool here at the website!!! I think you're gonna wanna check back! It has to do with "The Something'th Annual Year End Concert" in December.
But this is a fun update today as well!
I promised I'd be bringin' you guys some video from the past weekend, the final "outdoor" gig of the year. Yesterday I posted this little video and another.

So, today I can share with you a video of the moment when that very cool group of young women jumped in and jammed on an old Dave Mason song, made famous by Joe Cocker.

And, here are some more photos that were sent in by friends Laura Manske and Elodie Pauwels.

Or...click on this banner to order tickets online right now!
I'm gonna be joined on stage again by George Wurzbach, Nelson Montana, Ryan Cavan... crowd favorites Dave Marcus and Janet Kirker. And this year we'll be joined by singer Teresa Reynolds and rap artist JC Hall. (I'm hoping to feature one of the amazing violinists who appeared on the new CD, Cenovia Cummins.)
Oh, oh, oh....
Listen, I can never answer all the email I get. But, I promise I read every single one.
Some of you are still looking for a place to download that image from an update last week, "The FOX NEWS Tea Party". (Just click on this link!)
Okay. Okay. You're wondering why I spend any time shining a light on buffoons like Glenn Beck!? Well, even if his world view wasn't so corrosive and fear-driven.... ON HIS SHOW HE'S MADE A POINT ON HIS SHOW OF DEMEANING, RIDICULING AND INSULTING THE SONG "PEACE TRAIN". By Cat Stevens
(Am I offended as a thinking, feeling human being? Um.... sure. But... HA! I'm more insulted as an artist!)
Hey! Here's a sample of a track that's on the new album and we'll probably be doing LIVE at Merkin Hall this year. (People at FOX can make fun of this one, too, if they want. I'll write more.)
I've got a whole lotta work to do to corral all the artists.... kinda gotta give 'em at least a rough sketch of what the night's gonna look like in December. (Yeah, we always make it up as we go along. But, it's important to point everybody at the same runway so we can all take off together!)
See you back here tomorrow with another update. Check back 'cause we've got some really cool shit comin' up!!!
Thanks for everything.
PEACE

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
