Everyone keeps asking about our favorite moments and I don’t mean this to say the middle was boring, but nothing beats your first tour and your last tour. You only get to do the first time you fly somewhere once. You only get to have your first drive up the west coast once. And you also only get to end it once, so the vividness of that, you just can’t beat it.
CCM: Musically, did you plan some surprises or special things knowing it was your final show and you were recording it?
ED: Yeah, we definitely did. We added more live players than we normally would. We normally tour as a four piece, but we decided we wanted this to be a little more free flowing. We wanted to fill things out live in a bigger way. We added a friend of ours to play keys, synth pads, organs and some extra guitar as an auxiliary guy. We have a guy who plays bass with us a lot, Steve Lensink, and we also brought in his wife, Brooke, who is a worship leader. It was a spectacular feeling because it was all very live.
