torndown tuesdays Cinco de Mayo edition

Good Day to all you torndown followers. It's a nice cool rainy day here in CT. Yuck. I like the warmer sunny weather. But the world needs a lil rain sometimes. So not too much has happened since the last torndown tuesdays blog.

Well actually, Jonah celebrated his 22nd birthday! He's the baby of the group! Soon it will be Eric's turn to join club 27. May will be a month mainly focused on working on new material. Not sure when it will debut, but Tim has been hard at work on a few new tunes.

Last night I realized that I don't spend enough time reading God's word. We are all such failures, but He still loves us. That is one extremely comforting thing. Also another thing really got me thinking. This past Sunday, one thing my Pastor said really struck me hard. I may be a nice guy, and I may have done some nice things, but I've done so much wrong in my life. How the heck can I expect to be handed ETERNAL LIFE! How selfish of me to even think that I deserve it.

To think that Jesus lived his entire life without sinning, and then was put to death FOR ME and for everyone else, is nuts. But it's true. He loved us sooooo much he sent his only son to live the perfect life and die for each and ever one of us! Talk about love.

Back to torndown. So it is official, as we said previously. We've booked 4 days in the studio this august. The plan is to record 4 songs-full band! Not sure just yet if we will have CD's pressed and sell them, of if we will just make the songs available via Digital Distribution (itunes, etc.).

So lastly, we have a few shows coming up (June 5th, June 13th, and June 13th). That is right, we are playing two shows on June 13th. One acoustic set in Manchester and one full band set in New Haven (opening for Chosen/EMG/Universal recording artist Bobby Bishop).

We ask that you continue to pray for all of the members of torndown and our families as we seek to do God's will and bring his word to everyone.

Dan
