You have a weak internet connection at the venue one day, a busy day the next, and the next thing you know you're like a week behind on the blog updates.
I fully intend to rectify the situation as soon as I can. In the meantime, here's a little rundown of our last several shows: Knoxville - Ate steak dinner with record company. Got a cool guitar cake from local bakery. Rocked. Raleigh - Went to the movies. Mac played like three shows. Ate fried oreos and other great fair food. Rocked. Louisville - Big awesome crowd. ONE Campaign "Stand Up" event. Rocked. Charlottesville - Really cool historical town. It was C-COLD. Rocked. There you go. I'll fill in some more details as I get the chance!
Loved the Louisville show. ROCKED!! It was the 6th time I was blessed to see you guys ROCK OUT for JESUS!! I just noticed that you guys are coming back to Kentucky...TWICE!! In March. Once to Lexington and then back to Louisville...Can't wait to see y'all again. You put on more than a show, it's also a true WORSHIP EXPERIENCE...and that's what CHRISTIAN MUSIC is all about! Thanks again, THIRD DAY for sharing the gift GOD has given you!! Later...

Hey guys :)
Glad y'all liked our super cold historical town (AKA: Charlottesville)...which is yet again super cold as I type this (I think it's actually colder now than when y'all were here!)! Can't wait to see y'all at the Arena in February for Winter Jam (Where it's nice and warm...)!!! Can I be your reporter when you all come? PLEASE?! Thanks for rocking out and living for Jesus! God Bless!

The show in Simpsonville was incredible!! My wife purchased VIP tickets for my birthday but we were late getting to the show and missed the M&G. Loved the acoustic set in the crowd! Will be at the show NOvember 21st in Asheville, surprising our 10 and 13 year old daughters with 8th row seat on the floor! Love your music, love your commitment and passion for reaching others with the Great news of Christ..........love the boots also!!! Looking forward to seeing you guys in Asheville!

I attended my first concert and it was seeing Third Day Louisville. It was also my daughter's first concert and we have to say we LOVED every minute. Keep rocking - the message you spread means more than you could ever know.

Honestly, I just picked up the WOW hits of 2009 and just fell in love with you guys. Just wanted to stop by and say hello. God Bless you all!

Caught the tour in Raleigh, NC and Charlottesville, Va. Both shows rocked! C'ville was freezing but Third Day warmed us up quickly with a great show! I am so blessed to be able to attend your shows. Your music and your genuine kindness touches my soul. The friends I've made through the 3D message boards, twitter, and facebook has been a gift. Met a few Gomer friends in Raleigh and several more of us met for the C'ville show. Can't describe the camaraderie that we have because of Third Day. God Bless Third Day and please continue to rock our faces off for a long time!
Looking forward to Winter Jam and the Music Boat!

Hi guys! Just loved the concert in Austin last night. It was such a blessing to praise and worship our Lord with you. I'll NEVER forget it. That was my first Christian concert and I couldn't have picked a better band to see. Thanks for all you do in His name!

Been a big fan since Katrina hit gulf and Cry out to Jesus hit the airways, saw you guys at Patriot center in Fairfax and was fortunate enough to even see you on the pedestrian mall in Charlottesville before the concert. Amazing show even the cold wasn't so bad.Love song in the crowd was cool, one of my favorites. Keep it up rockin for Jesus, love the way you do it and what you proclaim!!!

AWESOME Knoxville Show! You guys are so awesome, Mac you had me in tears when you were talking when you speak I can just tell that you are speaking from the heart and you love the Lord.. You guys are all so awesome and talented, Your music is amazing. This was my first time seeing you guys live, and it was even better than I imagined. Your music is pretty much all I listen to. Glory Revealed was so awesome to, they are even better live. Thank you for all you guys do. I hope to see many more of your shows live in the future. You need to come to Pittsburgh or Baltimore sometime, cause I had to drive 11 hours to go to the Knoxville show. You guys ROCK!!!!!!!

Charlottesville show was the bomb. Even though it was cold! Hope you guys didn't freeze! That was one of the best set lists ever. I was on my feet the entire show!!! You guys all sounded great and you really brought the rock Mark! The Devil Went Down to Georgia will stick in my mind forever! Thanks to your friend Jason for snapping the pic of Barb and I with you. That was so nice of him!
God bless you and all the guys of Third Day!

Charlottesville show was AMAZING!!!! It was my 7 year old daughter's first concert and she was just blown away like her Dad and me both! She's just as big a fan as we are...she had the black UK hat on with black coat waving at each of you on stage, she was so excited! Even got a drumstick from David Carr....we got a SUPER pic of you jamming, our daughter is so proud to say she was there. What a great message you guys gave, delivered in your songs and ROCKED despite the freeeeeezing temps! THANK YOU FOR COMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you come to Roanoke VA sometime??? :) We would LOVE, LOVE to have you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I truly enjoyed the show in Raleigh this past Friday night. All the songs were GREAT! You guys really rocked "The Devil Went Down To Georgia" out!!!!!! What a great night, now I'm ready to do it again..."come on back to Raleigh".

Thanks for coming to Charlottesville. It was cold but so worth seeing you all again!

I was at the Knoxville show. That was the best concert I've ever been to. You guys really did ROCK. Thanks for a great show.
Posted by: MNMluvsTD | October 19, 2009 at 03:05 PM
We went to the Louisville show, which was AWESOME. I just wanted to say that I love your music, my kids listen to you guys and my step-mother loves Revelation. That spans 3 generations of fans. How great is Jesus!!!!

Hey Son!
Great night in Charlottesville - get some rest, thaw out and know you are all loved. Thanks for some FIERCE guitar action. When novices ask me about Third Day, I describe it as, "Think Allman Brothers Band meets Jesus-love". It may have been freezing but you guys were SMOKIN'!!!
Posted by: Gail Weatherill | October 19, 2009 at 02:11 PM
The meet and greet was so awesome! I had so much I wanted to say to you guys, but I completely spaced once I was in line:) I told my husband this was the best birthday present ever!! The show in Charlottesville was so COLD, but it was worth it. You guys are my favorite band and I was so glad I could bring my son to see you. Maybe next time I won't space out...

Awesome Louisville show! We had a great time, thanks for coming out! I just had a comment about the meet & greet. I love the meet & greets and love the privilage it gives us. Usually we do the circle thing and you guys come around, which is great..oh and I love the Wired Lounge! But this time, I didn't really like how we didn't do the circle thing, we just "hung out". Only because, it was too intimidating to come up to one of you guys when you're getting coffee, on the phone, or setting up stuff. I felt like I was interupting you guys. The face time is the best part of the meet & greet, and I didn't really feel comfortable this time being in charge of that. It was a huge crowd, so you probably didn't have time..I completely understand. You guys know I love you and your music! Thank you for taking time to meet with us!! And for your awesome music!
