Question/Answer # 7

Hey, Tai! I told my son last year at Creation that Third Day really seems to enjoy playing music together. All of you play well together and there's just a cool camaraderie between you. Also, your individual enjoyment of the performance is always obvious. Have you, personally always been pretty outgoing in performance, or have you developed that stage presence over time?

It has definitely developed over time.  I used to get very nervous during performances.  One time, early on, my mom came to a show, and I was doing my patented stand in place and leg kick for the show.  (See the Chronology 2 DVD My mom wasn't having it.  She chewed me out after the show.  Telling me things like, "You're supposed to be a Christian, why aren't you letting your light shine?"  "Why didn't you smile on stage?  Are you upset about something?" etc, etc. 

Anyway, that week, I bought a wireless unit for my bass and I've been giving it my all ever since. 

I've kind of changed my definition of what "cool" is over the years.  For me, now, being cool is not worrying about being cool.

Hello Tai

I want to know about worldwide concerts. Third Day have plans to start a worldwide tour? Well I am from Brazil and when I take a look at your tour schedule in the website I realize that your concerts are only inside the US and I think Third Day could influence and encourage much more people around the world that actually do nowadays. What do you think about it? Thanks and God bless you!
