When is tobyMac coming to my city? How can I get him to do a concert in my town?

Often, show locations are decided by the headliner of a tour or the organizers of a festival, so we here at the tobyMac camp have no say in the matter. In general, the best way to try to affect which artists come to your city is to show your support of the artist at local radio and to the concert promoter in your region. In the meantime, make sure you're signed up on the tobyMac mailing list to get the latest tour news ... and check out the tour dates section, updated frequently.

What is the meaning behind the song Ill-M-I?

Its basically hip-hop on the art tip. The lyrics of the song are almost whimsical, like word pictures all throughout. The real thought behind the song is its sort of poking at the Pharisees, poking at those who "have it all together." Of course, its basically ILL M I, and you, Illuminati shining through you. Illuminati, people are confused by what that means, but one of the dictionary definitions is 'a person or persons claiming superior spiritual enlightenment.' So, that to me is a Pharisee anyone who claims to be an all-knowing spiritual person. So, it's sort of saying, "Ill am I. I'm all ill down here, and you, Illuminati, shining through."
