Welcome to Minnejungle! (Torre)

It seems that Minnesota is never happy.. It's either sad, angry, or just really cold. This past week has been on record the hottest days ever in Minnesota. They're comparing our temperatures to jungles... WHAT!? So I've been spending most of my time eating ice cream and hanging inside with the nice air conditioning.. but this past weekend we had a show in Willmar, Minnesota at Sonshine Festival. Lex and I have been going to that festival for 6 years and the first year we went we got burnt like no other, stayed at stage 2 all day to see Falling Up, The Wedding, Run Kid Run, and Barlow Girl. Our best friends mom always told us we were going to be playing main stage some day and we all just kinda laughed at her and brushed it off. Last year we played on the Show Mobile Stage and we were very happy with just playing at Sonshine but then our booking agent called us and let us know that we were playing Main Stage this year... WHOA! We were all taken back.. We played the same day as Newsboys, Anberlin, The Almost, Francesca Battistelli and many more amazing bands. We felt SO blessed to be on that stage with such amazing bands. So thank you to all of you who came out (an hour earlier!) to come see us! You are all so amazing :)





And if you didn't know... on our last tour we ended up having to buy a new trailer. With that, it had us go into more debt. We had heard of this online giving place called Kickstarter. So we thought we'd give it a try because we realized we can't keep supporting BLP on our own. So we only put up half of what we needed to raise ($3,100) and in 45 days we made our goal! So thank you again to everyone who gave or even who prayed for us! We have the best fans/friends in the whole world! We couldn't do what we do without all of you lovely people!
