| Happy Birthday, Tim Foreman |
Seeing as today is August 15th, we'd like to honor and celebrate a solid bass-player on the day he was born.
So, Tim, on behalf of myself and anyone else who agrees with me, thanks for all the honesty, humility, kindness, wisdom and leadership you've shown as a part of this band. You really have a heart for the people who admire you guys and love your music, and we appreciate all that you do for us. Romey and Drew describe you well:
"Tim - the other side of the stage. I think Tim, in reference to the band, is a rock to it. He holds down the music aspect of the band. Being a bass player myself, I'm always amazed at Tim's bass playing skills, as well - he's awesome. He's also the conscience of the band, a good conscience. He's the heart. As a friend, he's a gracious guy, an encouraging guy. He's like a brother." -Romey
"Tim is the rock, the quality-control, the internet-savvy, the in-control foundation of Switchfoot. Thank you, Tim." -Drew

Here's to the tech-savvy, great-listener, bass-ninja with the memory of an elephant. You've never let being the youngest, being the little brother, or being a bassist serve as an excuse to let yourself play an insignificant role. Seriously, the other 4 guys would be lost without you ;)
Thanks for giving us and the band your very best. Happy birthday! |

Yep. Tim's great. Super big birthday wishes on the big 3-0! I'm excited to say that I'll be see the guys in a few weeks while they are in Florida. All 3 shows. And the shot of TIm was in Hilton Head, SC and I'm proud to say I was at that show.

Happy Birthday Tim! Hope you had great surf and good times with family and friends today. You make the world a better place. Thanks for your example to the rest of us on how to treat people like they matter from the Bro-Am to after a show.
