The Newsboys are still AMAZING!
The Newsboys are so talented! The show was awesome, lots of fun, lots of energy. The production was fabulous. They had a fantastic video wall and moving lights. And if you've never seen their drum trick, you are just missing out. I've been a Newsboys fan since middle school and have seen several of their tours growing up. This show was so special because it was my 10 year old son's first time to see them. And he was simply smitten. We had floor seats next to the cat walk and it was even more than we hoped it would be. We were also able to shake their hands and get autographs afterwards. The Newsboys were very kind and friendly despite the huge line of fans they had gone through and the extremely lengthy set they executed. Above all this, the message that the Newsboys brings is the bottom line to everything they do. They sing about love, hope, joy, and living for God. They aren't singing about sex or money or physical appearances like everyone else. They are about something you can believe in. Something you want your children to repeat. Bottom line, they are positive role models in a negative world. And I can't thank them enough.

Newsboys never disappoint!
I saw the Newsboys at least almost 20 yrs ago with my husband and sons. They were awesome than and awesome now. I really enjoyed their choice of songs, graphics and lights. The drummer and vocals knocked it out of the park. What a great evening with my friends. This was my first time seeing a concert at Allen Event Center and I will be sure to return. I’m use to larger venues so this was a pleasant change, not a bad seat in the house.

Newsboys have released 17 albums over the last 18 years, six of which have gone certified gold. Their 2011 release entitled God's Not Dead produced two number one singles on the Christian CHR charts; "God's Not Dead (Like A Lion)" and "Your Love Never Fails." Newsboys fans order their tickets far in advance, anticipating the live concert experience the band is famous for. Audience participation ensues in the way of roaring sing-alongs and massive back and forth sway-alongs that are described as "powerful," "uplifting" and "affirming." The band tours extensively in an effort to reach out to all of their fans. After the September 2013 release of their latest album Restart, the band hit the road on a trip through 31 North American cities.
The band was founded in 1985 and fronted by John James until 1996, when Peter Fuhrler took over as singer until 2009. Michael Tait, the former singer of dc Talk is currently holding down vocal duties in what many are calling the band's most powerful lineup yet. Newsboys were first recognized by the Christian Rock world when they released their fourth studio album Not Ashamed. Their fifth album, Going Public won Dove award for Rock Album of the Year while the standout single "Shine" won a Dove Award for Rock Recorded Song of the Year. Their highest charting release came along in 2010, when their album Born Again debuted at number four on the Billboard Top 200. The band shows no signs of slowing down on their quest to spread their message, with a tour of over 58 cities set for 2014.
