The Roadshow – Indianapolis, IN

0

Ever wonder what it sounds like to stand on stage in front of over 12,000 people and hear them worshipping? Tonight in Indiana was truly a special night.

We’ve wanted to play this song a little different for a while now, and this tour gave us a great opportunity to try it this way. One of the special things about playing this song for so long is listening to you guys sing this song back to us. Here’s a quick clip from tonight’s show in downtown Indianapolis.

Thanks for making it out tonight. We had a blast.

Every night during “Alright” in our set the rest of the tour knows that it’s time to dance. Because tonight was the last night of the tour that means there needed to be some serious dancing that went down. Here’s a quick little video of the entire tour breaking it down with us in Memphis.

Thanks to everyone who made this a memorable tour. We had a blast with all the bands that were out here, and with everyone who came out to spend their time with us. We’ve got a lot more coming your way including The Rock & Worship Roadshow 2012 and also the very first Rock & Worship Boatshow. Keep an eye on the website for more details.

MercyMe Returns from USO Tour to Middle East

0


ARLINGTON, VA. (Oct. 11, 2011) – Award-winning band MercyMe recently set out on their first USOArmed Force Entertainment tour.

The six-member band delivered a touch of home to troops in the Middle East, staged three one-of-a-kind concerts, signed autographs and uplifted the spirits of service men and women.
Details:

  • This was the first USO tour for the band.
     
  • As part of their week-long USO tour the band visited Bahrain and Djibouti and lifted the spirits of more than 800 service men and women. 
  • Since their debut in 2001, Grammy-nominated MercyMe have sold over 6 million CDs and DVDs and received multiple GMA Dove Awards, with all of their albums attaining either Gold or Platinum status.
  • Producing 23 No.1 multi-format Christian radio singles, and four consecutive mainstream radio hits including “I Can Only Imagine,” “Here With Me,” “Homesick,” and “So Long Self,” the band’s latest album “The Generous Mr. Lovewell” was released May 2010. 
  • A big supporter of military families MercyMe routinely donates concert tickets to troops and their families and their 2009 release “Finally Home” paid homage to service heroes.  
Quote:
Attributed to MercyMe lead vocalist Bart Millard:
“I can’t really express how much of a blessing this USO tour was for the band and myself, it was just amazing.  There is no greater sacrifice then self-sacrifice and no one knows that better than our troops, ‘thank you’ doesn’t seem like enough but I hope they realize how much we appreciate their service.”
