Y'know?

On Friday and then again on Saturday morning, I wrote here at the website that I had a special feeling about what kind of day we were gonna share in Central Park on Saturday afternoon. Sometimes I just get those feelings. I just kinda have a feeling that it's gonna be a special day.

Every single day I spend out there by The Lake with a guitar on my shoulder hangin' with you guys is special in it's own way. But some days are just what I call "golden". This was a "golden" day out there. If you were hangin' with me for any part of the day this weekend...

THANK YOU.

I mean it... thanks again.

Teresa Reynolds came back out and sang with me on a whole bunch of songs. and guitarist Roger Bartlett, (formerly of Jimmy Buffets Coral Reefer Band) surprised me and sat in on a few songs.

Very cool.

HERE'S THE FIRST BATCH OF PHOTOS FROM SATURDAY

I'll have more photos from Saturday all week and probably a bunch of photos from this past Friday night's "Sunset Concert" posted in this page this week. So check back and maybe you'll see your shining face on the site. You can share your day or your New York sunset with your family and friends around the world.

And HEY!!!!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY

.
Yeah, the photo on the right is a little"Field of Dreams" image I created of me and Pop when he was about 19 years old.
The one on the right is more recent.

.

This week is gonna be interesting. I think a local TV news station is gonna do a little piece on the fact that this is YEAR #20 for us at "The Hill". I'll let you guys know when that happens and when it's gonna air. These are just the things that make Life so interesting and so very f*ckin' cool.

This past week... I spent 3 10-hour days recording and mixing 2 new songs. I love it when they finally come together and start to sound like... something. One song is a love song I wrote for my niece Katie and her man Nate for their wedding. And the other song is... well... just something new and special that I'm gonna sing in the park today. It's called --

WITH ANYONE BUT YOU

But y'know? I think you're gonna wanna keep up with the progress on the new "Broadway" project as it develops. (You might even wanna be a very real part of it's development. More about that further down the page.)

AND! If you're new you can always go back and browse through THE ARCHIVE as far back as you wanna go. I mean... thanks to my friend, my webmaster, and resident evil genius James Marino, you can historically go back through this website all the way back through the Bush years right up until the present. It's really kinda freaky how much content is here on this site.... cartoons, free songs, Photoshop images. Very cool.

.

This year's PHOTO GALLERY will include images from both the Central Park gigs and "Sunset on the Hudson Concert Series".

BTW -- "The Something'th Annual Year End Concert" is booked for Saturday night, December 10th. I know it's early, but I wanted to let you know if you're one of those people who travel down from Buffalo, or in from Pennsylvania, or Maryland, or Germany just for this gig.

The internet has made the world a very small campus and that's a really cool thing. If you bookmark this page and check back every day, you might find you smile more than you don't and you also might find some things to think about.

Okay now you can find out how YOU can be a part of this new project here.

In a nutshell, we're putting together something that we hope is headed for Broadway or... Jupiter... or... I don't know. But it's gonna be done someplace. Broadway legend, TONY WALTON, a man who has more Tony Awards and Academy Awards than I have socks, is behind it 100%... so now it's just about getting the right team together and working it. I'll be inviting all of you to another one of those small, unplugged work sessions very soon, so keep checking back. The last 2 filled up in a matter of hours.

Here's a little 10-minute video from Tony and his wife... explaining the project.

And here's a link to visit if YOU wanna be a real part of this process.

Here's another fun, fun moment on a hot, hot summer afternoon in Central Park when Chris Tedesco just showed up top jam on a few songs. We did an old cover song.

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
