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. Its slowly but surely turning into fall. And everyone knows what that means: leaves changing, temperature cooling, school starting. But most importantly, FOOTBALL RETURNS. I speak for myself and the band when I say we are excited to see some new gridiron glory.
So you can imagine how thrilled we were to hear that the band was contacted by ESPN to get some video footage of them playing their new song "Make Your Move." They will air the footage in little snippets during this years football season. The song comes from the new album releasing October 19th called, "Move." A very select few of you (if you were at one of the last couple shows) have heard the song.
We spent all day yesterday at the Quarry recording studio clearing out the big room and setting up some cool stadium-looking lighting for the set. So we hired a killer camera and lighting crew to film the band performing. They brought in a few great cameras and even a dolly track to get cool moving shots. After a couple hours, the band was finished, and editing will begin. Like I said earlier, ESPN will be airing it during some college football action, so if the game doesn't necessarily excite you, watch so you can see Third Day!
Here are some photos of the day that Cameron and I shot:
I love it when God opens doors and you know that you know that you know - it was HIM! WOW, has He opened a wide door for you guys!! Those fields are ripe! Praying the harvest will amaze us all and glorify Him in even greater ways that we can imagine!!! Praying also for you guys, your marriages and your families! Thank you - ALL of you - for the sacrifices you make! Please tell your families how much we appreciate all they do too!

To Carol Wagner -
Thanks for the encouragement, but Patriots football is now out of the question. Even if I wanted to watch again, I am now bound by my word and I have to one-up my husband - who also said he'd never watch them again, and then later changed his mind. I think I'm going to be a Giants fan, just to irritate him! Haha!!

For those of you who may not have cable, watching college football on espn3.com is free for some internet providers. My question is will the Third Day commercials be on the online broadcast or just on the tv?

You have nothing to worry about with me! Football runs in my blood and i watch it every chance i get...... even if it's a team i don't necessarily like! I can't wait to see it. When i see it, whoever i am with, with think i've officially gone nuts... because i can just see my reaction already. I CAN'T WAIT!!!!! And it soooooo totally rocked in Terre Haute, IN. and Missouri. LOVE IT!!!!!!!

That is too cool guys, I will be looking for it as I am a big college football fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry for the last comment - I think college football does air (somewhat) up here, but I've only ever watched the Patriots - until they went 17-0 and then lost the big one - it was then I knew it was all rigged. . .
Posted by: Angela Arsenault-Brown | August 25, 2010 at 05:51 PM
I am very tempted to get cable just so we can watch. Does college football even air up here in Maine????

PS: The new drum head is SWEET!

God blesses those who persevere! So glad that you're going strong! Hope you guys keep at it until we're called Home (and then some!).

This is really awesome to see and the song is just amazing the sound and lyrics! I was hoping this song would get a little popularity ... looks like it will and its almost like it is a "second single", song.
