Really quickly...

The Yankees finally took a series from Boston this season...

.

'Bout time. Last night was another close one... another nail-biter... another intense game. But there's a lot of baseball left to be played. Gonna go down to the wire for sure.

'nough said.

.

OKAY! TOMORROW!

Last week we had an un-welcomed guest in Central Park named Irene.

But a couple of weeks ago, we had another typically amazing day at "The Hill".

So let's do the same thing we did about 3 weeks ago. Let's hope this next batch of rain holds off until tomorrow night. I have a feeling it will. I have a feeling we're gonna have a beautiful afternoon tomorrow.

.

AND TOMORROW'S GONNA BE A SPECIAL DAY OUT THERE!

Now, an awful lot of people check in here every day from different parts of the world and different parts of the country.

Here in the U.S., this weekend is called Labor Day Weekend -- and it's considered the "unofficial" end of the summer season. And so for a lot of people here in New York City today is...

Get outta town day!

.

But for people like me, summer ends when I say so. Summer ends when the weather gets cold. And these 3-day holiday weekends are exactly the kind of weekends I really love in this town.

It's when most parts of the city, except for the HUGE tourist areas like Times Square and South Ferry, slow down... quiet down. Streets on the Upper West side, Upper East Side, The Village, SoHo all kinda empty out a little and the pace is more relaxed and easy. I love this town all the time. But I really love hangin' out on holiday weekends in the summer when so many millions of people are frantically and frenetically hitting the road so they can get someplace else.... to relax.

So yeah, tomorrow I'm gonna kick back, put my guitar on my shoulder and head to Central Park.

If you're new to all of this, here's a little map that will help you find us in New York City's beautiful 843 acre backyard.

If you're like me and you're gonna stay in town tomorrow, I hope I see you out there!

Now you guys know how I feel about "religion". Hell, I'm the man who wrote "The Religion Song". Still... I did it again. I had to. Once again 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.)

TOMORROW is shaping up to be one of those "golden" days if it don't rain. Teresa Reynolds is back in town. And I think I'm gonna be joined by another old friend with whom I love to share a microphone. He's a guy you've heard singin' on one of my albums and at a lot of my live "indoor" concerts!

AND! It's a holiday weekend, so if you come out to "The Hill you get to be part of a little tradition I started out there about 10 years ago.

OKAY! MORE PHOTOS FROM 3 WEEKS AGO!

I'm a lucky, lucky man.

So! The rain's gotta hold off!

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.
