Okay, I mean it.

Again.

What an amazing day we had on Saturday afternoon!!!

Y'know? I've said this before. But if any other artist I know had just "one" day like I had yesterday -- a day when they just put a guitar on their shoulder, found a place in the sun in Central Park in the middle of the greatest city in the world... if they just showed up with no record label behind them, no agent, no manager, no nuthin' except a bunch of music and stories -- if they just started playing and a few thousand people spontaneously showed up, sat down, and started to sing and laugh along with them...

If they had just one day like I had on Saturday...

I'm tellin' you, they would cherish that experience and talk about it for the rest of their lives.

And I've gotten to do that every warm weekend for the past 20 years.

I'm a lucky man.

If you were out there with me... thank you. And keep checking back all week because I'm adding photos from the lens of publicist Laura Manske all week. She's out there like every week taking pictures of you guys. They all eventually end up in the 2011 Photo Gallery. Here are just a handful to get you started this week.

I had a beautiful day, but a quietly emotional day for a very personal reason. What a great day... laughing and singing. Singing with Teresa Reynolds. singing with all of you. But at the same time, inside my heart was smiling and crying simultaneously most of the day.

But all good. I mean that... really, really beautiful and good.

.

As always, if you're lookin' for a whole bunch of photos to see what it is we do out in Central Park every year... if you're new here and you need a little catchin' up... for any newcomers, you can check out this little Photo Gallery from last summer's outdoor season... in Central Park and down on Pier 45 in the Village.

OKAY!!!! Now about the newest project!!!!

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.

THE (entire) DECEMBER CONCERT

For you guys again today... the entire concert... "The Something'th Annual Year End Concert" is here for you to watch. Go make a pot of coffee. Pour yourself some tea or a nice glass of wine and sit back and watch this thing. Plug in some headphones or some earbuds if you feel like it. You can actually jump around and watch different parts o the show.

We had such a great time again this year in that theater!


(The audio got a little funky during Teresa Reynolds' Christmas song... but I'm do everything I can to fix that sooner than later. Check back.)

Here are a couple of different fun galleries to check out.

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.
