    This is a really great video. I just showed it to my six lil' bros and they all love it as much as the 40-min history lesson! I like that in this one Mike (or somebody) adds HYSTERICAL effects.....Like the two Joseph Smiths...LOL HA-HA that was TOO funny! Love y'all!!! -Emily (Gaffney, SC)

    I remember Tenth Ave at PBA Coffehouses, TNL, etc etc.... but my most vivid memory of Mike D., and actually my oldest memory of PBA at all, is at the Milk Chug Challenge circa 2002 in my future home, Mango. And a certain Gene Francis. Standing under a window. You know the rest. But I loved this story anyways.

    OK....if I'm wrong in the statement I'm fixing to make...NO OFFENSE meant to ANYBODY WHATSOEVER!!! Alright...so here goes.....Mike, I think you must do the graphics & cartoons (you know, animations) in your videos. You're great at it!!! IT'S HYSTERICAL!!!! (So if all this it WASN'T Mike that did the graphics....Oops.) You guys are so funny and keep enhancing that sense of humor!!!

    Hilarious. Love it. Brings back so many memories...but, Mike, I think I would be remiss not to remind that in our days at PBA it was a "college" not "university." :)

    You never told the story of why Drew Middleton left the band! That man was such a crucial part of the group when you toured as I saw him at Student Venture Getaways and Fastbreaks. We want to hear what happened to Drew!

    I loved the video Mike!! lol with my daughter. Nice to know the history of the band. My family enjoyed seeing you and Jeff @ Carvery Church Santa Ana, CA. Can't wait to see your whole band one day. Merry Christmas to all. Love, Kathleen

    lol, love that video Mike! It's really cool to see the whole history of the band in four minutes. You guys rock! p.s. Mike, if your music career doesn't work out, you should try comedy! bites weight-lift

    I sure hope there's not going to be a test. That was a nice video Mike, but it would have been really cool if you'd have rapped it ;)

    I want you all to know you have nearly saved my marriage. I was having an affair and thinking of leaving my husband although I have been a christian most of my life. I was given your CD and along with a series of REEDEMER-INTERVENTIONS, your songs have drawn my heart back to the Lord. When I first heard BELOVED I was in my car and was crying so hard I had to park. That song was written by you FOR me. Thank you for your rich lyrics and depth of insight into the Saturating love of Christ. Carmen

    I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVED THIS!!! MIKE: You are the EPITOME of comedy. If you looked that word up in the dictionary I'm sure your face would be right there, and if not, then that dictionary would be void. and null. :) God bless. Marina http://stmarkqt.wordpress.com/

    Oh my gosh, it's like a huge soap opera! Amazing. The hardest part is trying to not laugh out loud because my family thinks I'm crazy. :D And the coolest part is I'm wearing the shirt I got signed by you guys. (: May have been the best video yet. Bravo. :D

    As usual, very entertaining, very funny. I was saying to myself "how's he gonna get through this without laughing or cracking up?” I wouldn't have been able to, then the first little edit came. I have that CD where your buddy is; excuse me, picking his nose. Beloved is on that one too, I like both versions. Anywho, that was great, thank you, I needed an afternoon laugh. I’m so thankful and glad the current band members found each other… no coincidence. God bless, Laurie

This is their second cd. Funny, they don't sell it on their site. Wonder Why? Maybe there is bad music on it so they are ashamed of it or something. Whoever reads this please contact TAN and help me find out why they don't sell "Speaking of silence" or "No looking Back". I can't even find "No looking back" anywhere! Maybe there was a band with the same name before this TAN started. They ought to tell us. Whatever the reason is.

    You kids rock! I love your album, Over and Underneath, my iPod stats say your number 1. Not bad for a bunch of kids from Florida. :-) Thanks for the music, it is inspiring!

    What a great band... and its history as well!!! You guys are a true blessing, I can't wait for you to get bigger so you make an international tour and come to my home: the amazingly beautiful and God blessed Guatemala!!! You guys inspire. For real, and that is something amazing... You inspire me to learn more of God, to seek Him and to truly get to love Him... I pray for you so that you can keep inspiring other people and keep growing spiritually! Keep it up, and always remember that He is the LORD, your God,who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you. (Is. 41:13) :D

    I loved watching this video! :) Mike, you are so fun to listen to I've said this in an e-mail I sent the band, but I was left speechless at the last night of your Over and Underneath tour - everything you said and sang was so easy to relate to, so easy to get into. The passion you had up on stage flowed directly, and I left more sure than EVER that I need to pursue my music and do what you guys are doing. Your songs have been such an incredible blessing in my life - I can't put into words what they have done in my life and in my faith... Thank you so much for simply being who God has called you to be! It was so cool hearing about how the band came to be. :) God bless you, Kelly, sweet Eisley, and the rest of the band. Keep doing what you're doing!!! Don't ever stop! :)
