Andy's on top of it, though, and you should definitely go check out his Daily Foot entries (in brand new format). Click HERE (or if you are viewing from switchfoot.com, click the Daily Foot box in the upper right corner). He put up some high-quality pictures (including one of an a-maz-ing sunset. whew!). I like this one because the only place where there's actually a "31" is in the reflection on the paper towel dipenser. heh..
Thanks, Andy!
Lots of people like to interview the guys when they go on tour, especially people who like the idea of benefitting Habitat For Humanity.
An online Michigan newspaper, mlive.com, did a phoner (phone interview) with Chad a few weeks back:
"I figured I'd go and swing a hammer and be part of creating a home," Butler said in a phone interview from a tour date in Tulsa, Okla.
"But I had the experience of being shoulder to shoulder with the homeowner of that house, who was working on that house and on his neighbor's. Putting in the extra time to create community was something special."
Another phoner was conducted with Tim by one of my very own hometown radio stations, and you can go listen to that HERE.
Time for some tour videos.
First live performance of Rebuild, in Columbus, Ohio:
I chose this one because it has the fun conversation at the beginning, but for slightly better audio, check out this one.
First live performance of Head Over Heels, in Charleston, West Virginia:
(Thanks, Vicky!)
Also recorded by Vicky, Jon talks about being independent, and Habitat For Humanity:
If you recall from the Columbus, OH Daily Foot entry, Andy wrote,
so i remember on mtv awhile back, there used to be this show where bands would go and surprise a group of people and play an impromptu show somewhere like a mall or a skatepark or something. well, switchfoot kind of did that today at a highschool somewhere in the greater columbus area. they set it up that a guy was supposed to come out and pretend to forget how to play guitar, and then switchfoot would come and save the day. the kids flipped out, it was pretty awesome.
well, the guy who pretended to forget how to play guitar was a guy named Matt Nystrom. He posted an entry on his blog about this event, complete with mp3's of Meant To Live, Head Over Heels, and Dare You To Move (all acoustic). Go check it out HERE. Thanks, Matt!
Lastly, a blogger named DC Curry posted some nice pics of the Merriville, IN show:
The Daily Foot won't work for me... :'( It hasn't for a few weeks. Sad day. I think I'm going to cry.
I so totally should have been at that Columbus concert. But alas, college kept me away. So my brother called me during the break between Switchfoot and Relient K to rub it in.
I have an idea on how to help with the CA fires. For all the Switchfoot fans or anyone interested in getting involved, check it out. It’s going to take a lot of work to make it a reality.
love the acoustic songs, especially Head over Heels. Cant wait to hear it live in a week!!
how come the new daily foots dont show up on the Sfeed link to it anymore?
