I wanted to go to the show in Longview, but my family didn’t think about ordering tickets until we heard that the show was sold out. And I was really looking forward to it…
Guess I’ll just have to wait until May 5 to hear some new songs from you guys. Oh well.
Keep up the good work guys!

This is our 3rd time to see you guys … ’03 in FL, ’08 in MO, and last night in our little town of Texarkana, AR. You guys were just five minutes from my house and at the church where my husband teaches school. I wanted to invite you over for “supper!”
Thanks again for using your talents and gifts for the glory of our Heavenly Father, encouraging the Christians, and sharing the gospel with the unbelievers! You guys are the best!!

The show in Longview has been sold out for 3 weeks! Twelve hours and counting…I’m psyched out of my mind right now!

Good Morning Guys, Praying for your annointing tonight at Belcher Center in Longview. Praying for the Glory of the Lord to be upon us — expecting GREAT things!!! God’s Blessings of Strength, Health, Perseverance!!! Thank you for your commitment to the Lord!!!

I was at the show last night in Texarkana. Wonderful show! I appreciate you guys’ worshipful spirit and how you give glory to God! My husband and I really had a good time.

So awesome (and no surprise) that your shows are selling out! Have a blast in Texas and at ATF. Still wish you guys were going to be at our ATF in Fresno, but I will see you in Bakersfield the night before! Doing ATF setup that day and then volunteering Fri. & Sat. at ATF – between your show & ATF I should be wiped out by Sunday! But that’s a good kind of wiped out.
Thanks for doing what you do! God bless, safe travels, and see you soon!

Thanks you so much for coming to Longview, TX. I’m from Houston but worth driving here to worship and give thanks to God for what He’s been doing!
Also, a blessing to volunteer for Global Tribe.
March 7th, 2009 on 11:05 pm
What a shock!! Michael Tait announced tonight he is the new LEAD SiNGER!!!
March 8th, 2009 on 8:08 am
Just came back from the Longview, TX concert to my home near Houston. I’m the “tambourine lady,” a Global Tribe volunteer and monthly donor.
Here is my review: WOW! God was present, the worship was awesome, and we had Godly fun.
If I had time and space, I would tell you in detail what happened before, during, and after the concert. How Satan throws wrenches at us, knowing that God is at work. But also how God is always the winner.
Also, good to hear the opening bands, and good to see Mr. Jody Davis back in the game!
You, your crew, and the bands traveling with you are in our prayers.
Exhausted but filled with the Spirit,
Grace

I have been a fan for many years, but this is the first time seeing the show. It was so awesome worshiping the Lord with such great talent! Thanks for all you do, Im sure it comes at a personal sacrifice of sorts. My teen son lifted his hands to the Lord last night!! Awesome.
March 9th, 2009 on 2:08 pm
Awsome show last night @ Dodge Arena (Hidalgo Tx), keep doing the great job of the Lord, God Bless.
March 10th, 2009 on 6:09 pm

Great music, great worship, keep it going.
March 11th, 2009 on 12:55 am
Thank you guys for coming to Texarkana! You have fulfilled a lifelong dream of mine to see you live! I have felt the Lord’s presence through your music for over ten years now! Awesome show!
March 11th, 2009 on 1:27 am
We caught you at the Dallas Battle Cry and it was awesome. While Peter will be missed, the new sound was really great and Mike has amazing energy! We were all blessed by the band. We’ll pray for you as you continue this transition!
March 11th, 2009 on 11:22 pm

March 17th, 2009 on 8:48 pm
I had an opportunity to see the Dodge Arena Show (Hidalgo, TX). This was one class act. From beginning to end, the show was awesome. I’ve been listening to you guys since the late 80′s. This has been one of the best concerts I have ever attended period. Keep up the good work! Welcome aboard Michael and blessings to you Peter. Hopw you guys can come back to the Valley soon..

how about a benefit show for world vision. newsboys reunion, with peter, john, phil, jody, duncan, and jeff. d c talk with michael, toby, and kevin. it would be awesome!
March 20th, 2009 on 1:03 am
Just left the Bakersfield,Ca show. When we learned Peter wasn’t there I was worried. Well that lasted about 1 minute. INCREDABLE. We saw them the last time they were here and I enjoyed this show just as much. Yes we will miss Peter but the new newsboys are incredable. I think what everyone forgets the newsboys arn’t just one person. But a group. Great concert .
March 21st, 2009 on 2:56 pm
God bless you guys. I have seen the newsboys over 20 times now and never get tired of seeing them honor our lord. Peter, you were great and it seem strange not seeing you up there. God bless you and your family. Im glad you are still with the band behind the scenes. Mr Tate, you were great. God bless you with the band. It looked like you had a blast up there in Redlands. Look forward to many more times until our lord comes, then we will have fun in heaven together. God bless the Newboys. Rich.

Michael:
Just saw you lead the worship and preach last night in Modesto CA. I along with my wife of 17 years and two children 11 & 14. We were in the front row (your right) along the side of the cat walk. We were all praying for you during the show, sermon, we love GOD, you and the Newsboys too.

Hey Guys you continue to be awesome and bring gracious words in your musical ministry, but when are you coming home? Your sound was born here in Australia so when will we hear you in Oz. I have been a fan since I first heard you sing Not Ashamed and it was broadcast as an Ad for Christian Television in Australia. You have many adoring fans still here and we want you to come home!! God Bless and Keep you all and continue to shine upon you as you Shine!!

I took my daughter (who is eight) last night to see Join The Tribe Tour in Saginaw MI. AWESOME show! We were so glad to be able to have Peter there! I have been a Huge Newsboys fan, since the begining of the group. And ever since my daughter was old enough to sing, she has loved them too. She was really hoping to get to see Peter, since this was her first Newsboys concert. It meant a lot to her! The Newsboys GO album, has special meaning to my family. My husband was away last year serving in the US Army, and we missed him so much, and many of the songs from that album got us through our tough seperation. Ecspecailly “Stay Strong”. Thank you so much Newsboys for all your many great years of service, you have touched the lives of so many. And you got me through a really tough bunch of years when I was a teenager. You guys are fabulous! We enjoyed the concert last night so much! Duncan and Jeff were great! Everyone was! Peter we will deeply miss you!
God Bless you and keep you, you are a light in the darkness.
