The band sent this message to their fans. “Today is the big day! Our new album “For The Love Of The Game” releases. We are all excited to hear what you think. We think it rocks of course. The “For The Love Of The Game Tour” has started. We are out on the road now and have a few shows under our belt. The tour is going great. Fans have been telling us this is the best concert they have ever seen. Well, thanks for that great compliment. We will be filming a lot so you all can see what its like out here on the tour. Be sure to read about the new tour video Podcast. Thanks for the 10 years of support. We appreciate your encouragement and prayers.”
Lead vocalist, Rob Beckley adds, “We are so glad to be back on the road, interacting with our fans, sharing hope to all through the love of Jesus Christ and performing these brand-new songs. With the release of For the Love of the Game on Tuesday, that is just further reason to be thankful and excited for what we love to do. It’s a great feeling to be carrying big production on this tour, and going back to our roots of putting on a great show for our fans. This really is the most fun we’ve had since Pillar began!”
Pillar’s game is definitely on.
