Third Day - Live In Concert: The Offerings Experience

Reviewed by Mike Rimmer

Recorded back in 2001 on the band's home territory in Atlanta, Georgia, this DVD captures the band as they were at the height of their worship thing. The 'Offerings' album had been released as a response to fans who wanted more of their worship music. Inadvertently it became the biggest selling album of their career. The show itself combines some of the band's straight ahead Southern rock approach with a selection of their most popular worship songs. Filmed at a gig in an enormodrome in their home town, the action is interrupted here and there for documentary segments and interviews with the band. You get a tour of their tour bus, a look backstage at dressing room life and a glimpse into the band's world. Highlights include the live version of "Thief" and the singalong "Your Love Oh Lord" as well as a lighters-aloft "Agnus Dei". As those who witnessed the band playing live in London will attest, Third Day are an excellent rock band and this captures a fine performance.
