I wanna thanks all of you who showed up last evening at the Baseline Wheelchair Tennis gig. It always does something wonderful to my heart to hang with Paul and Sarah, even for a little while. They're really cool people. And it always feels good to see sweet people trying to make the world a slightly better place for in whatever way they can. It's a good, good thing.

Moving on! I hafta say... well it worked last week!

Last week I kept asking everyone to keep their fingers crossed for some good weather last week, and the rain held off until late Saturday night. Then it rained all day Sunday. Record-setting rain. But it held off.

So let's do the same thing this week... but in reverse. Let's hope this rain gets through the area quickly by Saturday morning. I have a feeling it will. I have a feeling we're gonna have a beautiful afternoon on Saturday.

And you guys know how I feel about "religion". Hell, I'm the man who wrote "The Religion Song". Still... last night I sacrificed a goat to Tlaloc, the Aztec rain god, just to be sure we get back out to the park this weekend. (I hope my neighbors don't mind.)

An awful lot of you are checking in from different parts of the country and different parts of the the world. but if you're gonna be in or around New York City this weekend, I hope I see you in the park. We had such an amazing day last Saturday. (Well, typically amazing.)

I'm a lucky, lucky man.

So! Let's get all the rain through here tomorrow!

Now listen... this Saturday I'm gonna be sharing music and stories and laughs and feelings with another few thousand people over the course of the day. But maybe it's time to reach a larger audience.

.

Y'know, honestly -- what a very cool thing it is I get to do with my Life and my music. I'm so, so grateful to every single one of you who are reading this right now... every single person who's ever hung out with me even once in that park. It means so much to me to know that there are people who "get" what my music and my stories have to say to the world. It reminds me... I guess, it reminds all of us that we're not alone and that there are others who "get it".

Y'know what? I always say that when you do what you love for a living, when you do what I do for a living, every day of a Life is a vacation day and every day is a work day. So I think filmmaker Dean Love and I are gonna shoot a pitch video for an idea we've been kickin' around for an interactive, internet TV show called "THERE".

I'm really getting to work on a couple of things... one of them is this new Broadway project. I'm gonna talk about this a little bit more tomorrow as well. I really feel that it's time to take the whole feeling we get in Central Park to a much larger audience. I'm just about to enter a new place where this little "Broadway" piece will really begin to come together. Now I'm just in the "dating" process... to find the right producers to make it a reality... and the right director/co-writer/co-creator to bring this thing to life.

Seriously. This is getting exciting. But then again.... it's what I do. This is the kind of stuff that makes me live.

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.

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