Hello, I am Nathan Ehman. I am the stage manager and content capturer on the road. I want to bring you the "crew view" of what transpires on the road and our journeys around the world. 
Well we just arrived at the studio, and we're getting ready to soundcheck. I've thought a lot lately about surreal moments - this is definitely one of them.
We'll soundcheck, hang out, have some lunch, soundcheck again, hang out some more, then perform. All in a day's work when you're in a rock band.
Loved seeing you on the Tonight Show. I'm glad to see that I wasn't the only one offended by the other guests. I thought that perhaps I'm just getting old...LOL! I don't watch much "regular" tv anymore, and was appalled that they would sink so low on network tv. Seeing Third Day was the only reason I even turned it on!

I loved your performance on the show, what an exciting opportunity! I was really embarrassed by the content of the show! Anyway.. cant wait to see you guys Aug 30 in Georgia...safe travels on your tour!
God Bless Always

Great job on Leno! What a shame the show's content was garbage. I was wondering if you were going to shake that dude's hand after all that junk he was talking about. GROSS! It looks like you did the Jesus thing though and welcomed him with love. I thank God for you guys and other great Christian bands that are talented and spreading the Gospel to the lost world too. Stay Focused as the Devil is very upset with you all!

The Tonight Show on July 29th was vulgar. Third Days performance was great. I wish they would have some how "Injected" more of Jesus, while performing. Maybe they should have just left before they were to appear on the show. Proves my disappointment in todays world and media. "Revelation" has begun ! Be ready ............

I chimed in immediately after the Leno show last night but now I'm checking out everyone's adds about the show. Fortunately I am well aware that the musical guest doesn't come out until the last 5 to 10 minutes of the show so that's when I tuned in. From what I'm reading in all of your blogs, I was blessed into missing all the filth and the foul. Yes, the devil is alive and well in LA, isn't he?

I saw the show too and was reminded why I do not normally watch late night tv! You definitely shined the light and I pray that some there were encouraged and saw something MORE than what was shown for the previous hour. Honestly...I thank God for saving me, or I'd still be stuck in that world!

Stayed up to see Leno last night - way worth it! Great job and great testimony!

You guys were AWESOME on the Tonight Show last night! Your performance was definitely the bright spot of the show. I haven't watched The Tonight Show in years (can't stay up that late through the week due to work), and I was so disgusted and disturbed by how offensive the show was prior to your performance. I don't know if it's like that every night, or if Satan was just trying to cause a stink. How do you guys handle situations like that? You really shined His light last night, and He really shined it through you. My hubby couldn't stay awake to see it, but I told him this morning that it was just so cool because I could visibly see the difference between you guys and the others on the show. You all were just "glowing" and so joyful. It was awesome. I hope others saw that difference too and will seek Him. God bless!

Thank you guys for bringing some class to the show last night. I was almost sick to my stomach watching those two interviews. I honestly can't remember the Tonight Show ever being so crude. You guys rocked and looked great. I vote to add another guitar player in the mix for live performances. Would love a fuller live sound especially after listening to the album.
God Bless

Saw you guys on the Tonight Show. Y'all were the only thing worth watching! The only thing that really bothered me was all of the crude and dirty jokes that were said before you performed. Did any of that bother you? How do you guys handle situations like that and still remain a strong light in a dark world?
Also, the song you performed was 'Call My Name' (AWESOME SONG!!), but did you have a chance to mention THE NAME-- Jesus -- that someone should call? Were you able to share that like when you were backstage?

Hey Tai,
I heard you talk to Mikey this morning on Rock 105.3 in San Diego! You guys talked about the 9 x 9 projection screen you have in your basement and the new duckhunt game. Mikey talks about you guys all the time on the air! Anyway, great job on Jay Leno, and hope you enjoyed the earthquake!!!

My husband and I just watched you on the Tonight Show. What a great performance!! Can't wait to see you live in Missoula next week!

I'm soooo sad. I was waiting to see your performance for weeks. I was telling everybody to watch it and everything. Then I had to work late and miss it. I'm bummed!! But you guys are Awesome!! God’s glory is definitely over you! I really enjoy all your songs. God bless you.

That was nice, my friends. Way to shine that light of His. {as Christie said}. My prayers are w/ you for the rest of your busy week.

Hey Guys, It was great to see you on the show... I haven't keep up with you guys in a while, sorry... (I'm sure you don't remember me, I'm the photographer from Dayton, OH and I played congas with your buddy Chris at Apex) Any way, Where is Brad? I hope he is OK. His presence was missed tonight! It just wasn't the same without him. Please email me and let me know what's up, change can be difficult, I am praying for you guys, all of you have been so kind to me over the years, I appreciate you, Neilo

Leno just came on here in the Midwest and I just sent up a prayer for your nerves! lol
Seriously, I wish I could personally know and see how He uses ya'll tonight. God bless.
Rock on guys!! And have fun!

What an awesome opportunity! A christian rock band appearing on a main stream TV show such as The Tonight Show! You guys rock. Have a great time on the show tonight.
Posted by: Candi | July 29, 2008 at 09:27 PM
It's so awesome that you guys are performing on the Tonight Show! Frankly, it's a show that I usually don't care much to watch, but now I actually have a reason to! Praying that Christ will use all of you for his glory. God Bless!!
Posted by: Sabrina | July 29, 2008 at 07:12 PM
Rock the house tonight! It's my prayer that the people that don't know your band or the message are the ones most impressed and touched with your performance. May this special opportunity bless you, all the Third Day fans, and the American public!
