A few weeks ago I was in Gaylord Michigan at Big Ticket Festival which is a Christian Music Festival. There were over 60 bands there including Third Day, David Crowder, and Newsboys.
This year I acquired backstage passes. So while backstage I saw all the tour buses unloading there gear and band members. I was backstage taking some pictures before the newsboys went on and I saw Michael Tait sitting on the bleachers to the right of the stage. So I went up and sat right behind him. I sat there for a few minutes pretending to watch what was going on onstage (Natalie Grant). I fibnally then turned around and said "Im really excited for the show." He responded with , "So am I." I then took a picture with him and left to go take some more pictures.
So then later that night I went backstage again. The second to last band (Seven Glory) was finishing up and the newsboys stepped out of their tour bus. They walked over and chatted with me a bit. We talked about their new album and other newsboys topics. They were about to go up on stage and i stood there and took a few more pics of them. Mike talked to me some more and then it was time go on. The boys circled up and prayed. Then walked out. I went around to the front of the stage and stood between the crowd and the band.
The concert began they started with "Something Beautiful" and went on from there. I was shocked. The concert was amazing. I think Mike did an equal job as to what Peter Furler did. I was so happy that I got to see that show. Next time the boys are in town make sure you check them out.
