Hey guys... welcome to the website.

THE CONCERT IS NEXT SATURDAY NIGHT!!!

You can call the box office today or any time this week! Or you can get your tickets online here today!

I'll tell you how you can still get tickets further down the page! But today I wanna start off by telling you about being in the studio tomorrow... and some of the people who are gonna be hangin' out with you in the audience on Saturday!

IN THE HOUSE WITH YOU

We're gonna do what we do every year.

I'm gonna be joined on stage by the same amazing artists as last year, and maybe a couple of surprises. But we're gonna ask EVERYONE in the house to sing like we always do. You know what's it's like. That room suddenly feels like 500 people in a big-ass living room, just hangin' out. I just happen to be the guy with the guitar.

I know for a fact ...that singer/songwriter Cassie Kubinski is gonna be in the house. So are Kylie Edmond, Athena Reich, Rhe Deville, Lili Roquelin... and the amazing Jennifer Hamady. So when you guys are all singin', you're gonna have a ot of support from some really amazing voices and beautiful spirits!

. . . . .

.

And y'know who else is gonna be in the audience!? There's a really good possibility that 2/3 of the legendary musical trio "Peter, Paul & Mary" are gonna be with us that night. (All 3 if you count the Spirit of music, social conscience and Love.) But really... right now it looks like Noel "Paul" Stookey and Peter Yarrow will be in the crowd. And my friend, colleague and Broadway legend Tony Walton and his lovely wife Gen LeRoy Walton are coming back for a second year.

.

.

.

So I guess now the only question is...

ARE YOU GONNA BE THERE?

.

******************************************************************************

HEY! You guys know that I'm lookin' forward to sharing my stage again this year with the beautiful and talented Teresa Reynolds!

TOMORROW IN THE STUDIO

Y'know? Tomorrow I'm in the studio with a bunch of the artist who are gonna share the stage with me this coming Saturday.

But... can I let you in on a little secret?

These people are never in the same room at the same time... almost until the night of the show. It's really amazing. Schedules don't line up. Dave Marcus lives in Maryland these days. George is in Brooklyn. Chris is in Far Rockaway. Teresa's across the river in New Jersey. But they are all such professionals and such gifted artists I never have any doubt that it always comes together. And you know me... I like to keep it loose enough so we can just lean on each other bumping down the runway, until the night takes off and the music flies.

It's basically the same feeling we get in Central Park when we're hangin' out with 300 or 400 people from all across the country and all around the world. Song follows song and smile follows smile... one story leads to another and each moment leads to another amazing moment. It all just comes together when we Trust it. And that's what I call that "It's Just Us" feeling.

It's just us... doin' what we do.

I have a couple of really fun ideas about this gig. One of them has to do with the BIG cover song we do every year. I think you guys are gonna love this. I think we're gonna create a good musical memory.

NOW -- here's a song I'm gonna debut with the bad at the gig on December 10th. And once again, I wanna ask you guys to keep this video moving around the planet. (It is intended to help counter the distorted and often purposely skewed image of the "Occupy Wall Street" movement by much of the "news" media. You can help by turning all your friends onto this video.)

THE NEWEST SONG AND VIDEO!

.

Send this video to everyone you know. Send it to people you don't know! Post it to your Facebook pages. Email it to Congress. Send it everywhere!

*******************************************************************

Y'know? This was year #20 that I've been known as "That Guitar Man from Central Park". As the result of sharing all those typically amazing afternoons of music an laughs in the middle of the greatest city in the world, I've become aware that there are always a lot of you checking in from different parts of the country and different parts of the world. Here's a Photo Gallery from this season. Maybe you're in there! (It's still growing!)

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.
