Well, we weren't issued the Special Event Permit to play in Central Park tomorrow afternoon. So... I'm sorry.
I will NOT be in Central Park tomorrow afternoon.
BUT!!!!!

For the concert tonight -- just get to Christopher Street in Greenwhich Village and walk west. Then cross the est side highway and out onto Pier 45 in Hudson River Park. We're all the way out on the end of this beautiful, grass covered Pier in the middle of the Hudson River, playing music and singing from 7:00 until 9:00.
And I'm hoping to have a special guest artist tonight.
Roger Bartlett (The man I call "Dodger") was the original lead guitarist in Jimmy Buffet's Coral Reffer Band. He's a good friend and I've asked him to come down and sit in on a few songs. So that oughta be cool.
If you're in town, I hope to see you down there. We'll play the Sun down with the below-fourteenth-street crowd!

Oh hey!
I added all of the photos from last weekend to this year's Photo Gallery. So check it out and see if your smiling face is in there. (Or someone else you know!!!)
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.
And the Photo Galleries just keep growing. (Maybe you're in there!!!).

AND HERE'S A REALLY FUN 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. Mostly, if you check back at this website every day, I hope you feel that... "It's Just Us" feeling. You're not alone.
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.
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
