You can click on these links to see the video of the YOUNG MODELS who jumped in on a song, and the ROWBOAT DRUM SECTION. on a rock classic.
No music in Central Park today! (No nothing in Central Park today except the preparations for tomorrow's running of the NYC Marathon.) All of you who are checking in here from across the country and around the world probably get to watch it on TV... make you feel a little closer to The Big Apple for a day.
But, only 6 weeks from tonight here in New York City we'll be getting together in Merkin Concert Hall for a yearly tradition that has turned into something really special every year.
Here's the first one of 2 brand new TV commercials for it!

Filmmaker Dean Love and I shot the second spot, but THAT is gonna be a surprise. I have something really audacious up my sleeve for that one! Trust me. I'm nuts!
And... okay, I get it!
So okay, MOST of you think that trying to put a .30 commercial on the air in Manhattan for the new CD and the upcoming concert is just tooooooooo crazy to become a reality. I guess I don't blame you. (Ha! Except for 2 people, NOBODY has responded to the TV AD CAMPAIGN FUND!!!)
But, I'm an unapologetic "possibility-junkie" and I can tell you this.
It's gonna happen!
Another thing that is certain is that the concert this year is gonna be on Saturday night, December 12th. And here's another thing.... you can order tickets right now online by clicking on this banner.

OR... you can call the box office directly tomorrow!!!

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
