    That’s awesome! The whole gang showed up for this one. :) I especially loved seeing John Reuben and Jeremy Camp! Although, I did start having horrible flashbacks of marching band for some reason. ;)

    That was a fantastic way to get together and end the tour with a CTGB!!!!

    Someone wants your testimony dead (not alive) because he hasn’t been very happy with what you accomplished on this tour–but too bad for him because–

    “You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.” (1 John 4:4)

    What all of you did on this tour for the Lord was amazing–and your testimony is certainly alive!!

    Now that is funny! It was sung very good. I would be surprised though if it ever found it’s way on a MercyMe CD. :)

    Leo Kotke would be jealous of the massive amount of guitar talent. Sure hope Big Joel is ok…

    Thanks for the laughter…it is the best medicine and an instant vacation!

    Until the next time my friends.

    thanks to all of you who made RWRS available for the crowds at the arenas and those of us online. a show like this is a huge production and i can only imagine how hard each of you had to work. your ministry is reaching all age groups and making a difference in many lives. i watched 1-2 shows each weekend and want to thank Brody for all he did, plus many others in the background. keep up the good work, safe travels and get some rest. you must all be exhausted!! we love you guys!!!

    Although it would have been nice to hear the lovely 12-string-esque chorus of everybody playing the intro lick in the same key…oh well. :-D

    Randy Jackson: Yo, yo, it was with it dawg. You really took a classic rock song and made it your own. You have really stepped up this competition!
    Paula: You know I love you guys and have from the start. I really thouht you did a good job with a dozen guitars and who would have ever thought to add an acordian for the lead? You guys really stepped up this time…

    Simon: Can I be honest…That was complete rubish! From the stupid chorus of guitars, to the rediculus accordian, John Reuben rapping a verse, mm’s pastor and stage manager carrying the drummer. You completely and utterly ruined a classic song an reached a new low in CTGB Idol. The only redeeming quality was that it was filmed from a rolling lift truck/cherry picker, that part was briliant.

    WallyfromMichigan: I loved it! The ‘industrial backstage’ backdrop, making sure that every brother in the guitarist union is included and a great choice of song…what more could be asked for.

    First GB I’ve seen, now I’m disappointed that I just found you off of FB and your tour is over. I have to say by reading the former replies your fan “WallyfromMichigan” is your best fan and writer. You need to find him and give him a spot on your site. I love you guys you have truly touched a million souls with your songs. Please don’t ever take for granted what God has blessed you with and always use it to His glory and you will be blessed beyond measure.

    You guys have always been in a league of your own when it comes to worship and making us all laugh with the CTGB, but to be able to bring so many others along for the ride and have them join in this mayhem is just classic!

    lol…………i was a little late in finding the video…..not so good at that…lol…..loved the roadshow and basicly everything else…i begin to think what separates the big artists from the rest of us is not pure musical talent, but a crazy imagination, and the insane personality to do the stuff you come up with……i can only imagine what that must feel like…..lol…pun totally intended (even though its a bad pun…is there any other kind???)….God bless, hope to see you next year! Come back to Sprigfield mo! we love ya here!

    Yea! Bon Jovi!! Thank you…

    So I’m sad… I bought my Mother’s Day present (yes, for myself from my husband) at your Wichita Road Show Concert - a long sleeved MM tee and then last Thurs we had a house fire and it was ruined. So I went online tonight to order another and no long sleeved shirts AND no 2X! Is there anywhere besides the next concert that I can go to get another 2X MM shirt???

    Thanks,
    Joni
