Chorus: Gmaj7 Dmaj7

Playing with TNB

Performing with TNB is a pleasure and a privilege.

There is nothing quite like playing a Dmaj7 chord with Gilbert and Kev while John rocks out on the drums and Descry scratches at the start of Words. Nothing at all.

Jesus Is Not in the Grave Anymore

For those that have seen us play Dream Again live, you know it’s different from the recording. We end the song after a loud rock-out session and we yell:

“Jesus is not in the grave anymore! He’s coming again, we cannot ignore!”

I usually find myself off of my drum throne, jumping and screaming. The reason I get into this position is not cause of the line. Although the line is amazing, I get out of the seat because of the section that led up to it. The crazy part where everything is LOUD and everyone is going crazy, while Mike screams, “Dream Again”. How can anybody STAY seated after that?

I look forward to the day when Revelation 19 comes to fruition. Scared, but I still look forward to it.

Something you should know about Mike

I love Mike. Mike loves food. When people are gathered around food, it’s a joyous occasion. When people are gathered around GOOD food, it’s a memorable occasion.

Mike has low standards for food.

Some of you may think it’s a bad thing. I think it’s a GREAT thing.

I love how Mike smiles when he eats. He thinks every meal he eats, is the greatest meal ever. When you eat with him, your joyous occasion, becomes a memorable occasion.

When you get a chance, cook for Mike. Or just eat with Mike.

Moral: Let’s not idolize food.

We recently collaborated with Urban Natures, an up and coming jewelery brand that wanted to incorporate their business model around the idea of giving hope to kids in need. What this means is 10% of their annual profit will go to children in need around the world, something we feel is important in furthering God’s kingdom in showing love to others.

In support of their cause, we modeled the “Give Hope” bracelet and though it may seem like an unrealistic feat for one small company…you can make a difference to even one child!

Kevin Kim just discovered tumblr

I just discovered tumblr…this is pretty cool.

New TNB songs are freaking awesome. I cant wait to get into the studio, but it’s a little daunting staring at that invisible mountain needing to be filled with dollars in order climb over into the studio.

God has our back and I’m confident He’ll make it happen.
