“Rock On” many lives changed tonight im sure!!
This was an awsome concert. I have to say the best part of the entire concert was hearing 18,000 sing “I love you Lord”. I also wanted to say thanks to all who put this on. I wittnessed my 14 year old son and nephew worship the Lord for the first time.
I was so very disappointed that we were unable to find seating in the American Airlines Center tonight. No one seemed to know how to assist anyone in finding seats and it was very apparent that they did not care how many people they let in because we were told that they did not keep a count. After wandering and searching unsuccessfully for over an hour and a half, we left, very hurt and disappointed that we were unable to see the concert. We had a group with us and all felt that they had been really let down. Next time I will pay more for tickets in advance to make sure were get seating. I hope the rest of the tour goes better than the one in Dallas did.
I was there tonight. I have NEVER in my whole life seen that many people gathered together to worship God. It was breathtaking. A friend of mine works at the AAC and she tried to explain to the manager to prepare for alot of people, because felowship is what we chistians do best.
She was right. And they were under prepared. That arena had more people than my whole town in it! I feel sorry for the people that were turned away. But for the people that made it in, including me, I’m glad that they got to experience the power, and the love of God. Just imagine if that many people laid down their pride, and put aside all distractions for at least one day and went out to minister to others. The kingdom of God would grow infinitley! Wow, I am blessed. I loved all the new songs. And Of course, Hawk Nelson ROCKED!
God Bless!

Awsome concert, great time. I just wanted to suggest in the future that you have line ropes or something to help keep everyone in the proper line while waiting outside. Keep up the great ministry and GOD bless all of you.
The promoters and AAC were definitely underprepared for the response. An event such as this needed Texas Stadium to house all the people that showed up. More people could have congregated and had a seat. Advance ticket sales could have averted any problems. It was a very enjoyable concert despite the seating issue.
Your performance was so amazing! It was such a blessing to hear you all there. I can’t believe how many people there were!!!!! Thank you guys for all that you do.
Hey ya’ll, did the baby come last night?
Absolutely amazing, I hate that people got turned away and there was not enough seating. I also hate that those are complaining are, in a sense, taking away from my experience of standing with 19,000 other souls and experiencing something that was this incredible. It was inspiring and beyond anything I have ever seen or heard. I did not get the full sense of the crowd singing “I Love You Lord” until hearing it here, WOW. God was honored in that place and now it is our turn to carry it on. Thank you to all the bands for the music as well as the words. From this we take over the World for God through Jesus Christ. The most encouraging thing was seeing the young people caught up in the emotion and worship to our Savior, lets go “do work” now.
oh my goodness. the concert in dallas was amazing!! i was on the floor in the 6th row, and in center stage! waiting in line was so woth it! if they come to dallas next year i will be in that line again no matter how long it is!
It is sad that so many had to be turned away in Dallas but look at the good that is coming from these concerts. Ya, there will be few bumps in the road but with this being the first year, who knew how much response it would get? Thank you again Roadshow and don’t let the complainers get you down. You are doing an amazing ministry for the Lord.

Dude, you guys brought down the house. Did I have to stand in a long line? Yes. Was it REALLY crowded? Yes. Did I have trouble finding a seat? Not really, guess it paid off to get in line at 4:30.
Was it the most awesomest concert ever? Right up there. 100,000 people at Southfork ranch sounds a little different than 20,000 people inside one room. Guess which one was louder.
Man, as I saw you standing up there on stage singing in front of 20,000 of your closest brothers and sisters, all I could think about was getting to CB’s for a burger.
Thanks for bringing the show to the big house in big D. Maybe next year at Jerry’s place?
My friend and I took our kids to the concert tonight. It was worth the wait in line! Thank you for making it affordable. It is unfortunate that some people were turned away, but there was no way to know how many people would show up! You guys did a great job. Thank you for pointing others to Christ.
I am sad that so many were turned away last night; wouldn’t it be great to pack the new Cowboys Stadium next year. 100,000 people on fire for God….Now that would be awsome. I think it could be done
The concert last night was great, beyond comparison to any other…all of the bands did an outstanding job of singing/playing AND in helping 19,000 Christians lift up our heavenly father! Thank you so much for offering this to us at such a fantastic, affordable price. The only thing I would have done differently is make the words to all the songs visible on the large screens. Although I was familiar with most of the music, it was frustrating not to be able to “sing unto the Lord” to some of those amazing songs because I didn’t know the lyrics. Other than that, the concert was perfect!
Rock on!!!!!
This was the most awsome experience. To be in a room filled to the max with Christians with hands raised to God, singing his praise, was one of the most exhilarating and powerful experiences I have ever had. I didn’t even mind the wait. We arrived just after 3:00 . . . It was worth it! And too, to see my daughter raise holy hands to the Lord in praise for the first time, was a blessing.
God Bless All

This was an amazing concert! It was a little bit of everything for everyone, and somehow, it all fit together. I have a new favorite band TENTH AVENUE NORTH you have to come back to the Metroplex! Maybe you can make a Christmas CD and come to Greenville with Mercy Me!=0)….Just a thought, Let it marinate….I was sad to hear I missed FlyLeaf (I absolutely love them), but I had never really paid to much attention to Jeremy Camp, and his message was just awesome. Back to the basics! I loved it! I will make sure to be in line around noon next time! Cowboys Stadium? Piece of Cake! =0) Be Blessed!
PS. How could anyone think about CB’s with what was going on in that room? =0)
Thanks so much for leading worship. All you guys were awesome, the best concert that my family(wife and 2 boys) and I have attended. The concert in Dallas was such a glorious experience, we made last minute plans and drove to OKC to worship again on Saturday night. We are from San Antonio and the 7hr drive was no problem at all to be a part of such an amazing event.
GOD Bless and blessings for the rest of the tour,
Jim
