Newsboys Concert Report

Wow! What a great concert! We saw four great Christian Bands who uplifted us and praised God with a great Rock Concert!

The first band to perform was Bread of Stone. Their four songs got the concert off to an excellent start. My favorite song that they sang was called, I Want.




The second band to perform was called VOTA. Their "alternative" rock sound really pumped us up. My favorite song that they sang was called, Hard to Believe.




The third band to perform was DecembeRadio. According to my bride, Jamie, "This Band ROCKS!" Caleb saw this band recently at Winterfest in Dallas. They were a perfect set-up to the Newsboys. My favorite song they sang was, Better Man.






Finally, the moment I was waiting for the most, the Newsboys. All I can say is WOW! They were every bit what I expected out of them. They sang several songs from the past, recent songs, and some from their new album coming out later this year. The show was a sight to behold. Duncan, the percussionist, had a tilted-roatating drum platform. It was cool. When they sang the song, Breakfast, people started to wave boxes of Captain Crunch cereal around in the air.
All the bands quoted scripture and praised God through out their performances. All of them are touring together as part of the Join the Tribe Tour.
We bought the latest albums from all the groups and got autographs from all the band members, except the lead singer from VOTA and the Newsboys. The line was to long for the Newsboys and the kids were getting tired. Their were to many girls around the lead singer from VOTA and he didn't have a pen handy to sign the CD cover.
It was a great night!!
