The photos of this past Saturday were sent in to the website by DAVID HAYASE.

THANKS!

I mean it. If you were out in Central Park with me yesterday, THANK YOU for yet another typically amazing day in my Life as an artist. How can I describe what it feels like to just put my guitar on my shoulder, start singin' songs for a few people and then watch what happens in such a short time. How can I ever find the words to explain how it feels to be smack in the middle of that kind of feeling with all of you?

I can't.

I can only say... thanks again.

I mean... Damn! The wedding in the carriage on the road! The Neil Diamond request from Stephanie across the road. The intrepid Sarah takin' a dive out of the kayak in the Lake on her birthday! The amazing Teresa Reynolds sing' her heart out. A surprise guest appearance by fellow-artist Dave Marcus.

TODAY!

I'm heading up top Yankee Stadium for Old Timer's Day. (No... not me! The ex-ballplayers!)

NOW TOMORROW!

Check back here, because I'm gonna provide a link to the NY1 interview I did with Arts reporter Stephanie Simon.

That oughta be cool. I guess it is kind of a uniquely New York thing to be called "That Guitar Man from Central Park" for 20 years. I'm kinda curious to see how the news piece goes. I told her that I think the real story out there in the park is not me... but you guys... the People on the Hill. Yeah, I live a pretty unique and extraordinary life as an independent artist. I'm a very lucky man. But without you guys, without all the individual reasons for hangin' out on a Saturday afternoon, there is no "happening" out there. Stephanie also interviewed my buddy, Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Dean Love. It'll be interesting to see how she approaches the story.

Here are some stills that were shot during the taping of the interview last Monday.

Kinda cool, right? For me this is the kind of little gentle, sign-post or reminder that tells me what I do with my guitar has some value in this world. Just the fun stuff.

ANYWAY! Check back tomorrow and I'll see if I can set up a link so you guys who are not in New York City can check out the piece.

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".

.

And here's the gallery from last Summer!

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.

VIDEO TIME

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.
