MercyMe Tickets

Newsboys and Mercy me played a very good show. It was a comfortable grand stand. My only complaint was one speaker kept making a crackling/flopping sound so I think it may have been slightly blown out or being pushed too hard.

This was an awesome concert and I have enjoyed Mercy Me concerts before. I love their music its so heartfelt!! Thanks for your wonderful message that you give in every song and the wonderful words that you spoke to us.

great music but the bass was too high. Seemed like Mercy Me phoned this one in. I was also concerned about the questionable devotional message. I don't think its advisable to tell your kids that they are perfect just the way they are. Only Christ is perfect and if we are perfect, why did God need to send his son. This is the reason modern American churches are producing lukewarm believers - no reason to change, "we are perfect". No reason for Christ, " we are perfect."

Newsboys were great and Mercy Me was awesome. A very good combination of music.

They were a good conbination concert. It was a bit weird hearing Michael Tate singing Newsboys stuff. Both groups the instruments were a bit to loud. It is hard to hear the vocals when the other is to loud.

MercyMe is amazingly beautiful music and they are so great to hear live. I think they sound even better than on the CDs. The message that they give is so touching too. They warm your heart and let you know that God is always on your side and loves you all the time. Thank you for letting me be a part of something so beautiful.

Both groups -- newsboys and mercy me--were great!!

Awesome groups to watch! Enternaining from beginning to end.

It was so rocking your feet moved by themselves. You could feel every note played. Loved it but would of preffered a Praise and Worship concert.

I was blown away! Newsboys rocked the stage and everyone was enguaged

Excellent concert! We really enjoyed it! Both groups were very good and entertaining!

The Newsboys/Mercy Me concert at the State Fair was AWESOME. Both groups "hit it out of the park!". Michael Tait is an incredicble talent and brought some of the great rock hits from DC Talk into the show. This was a MUST SEE event. Kudo's to the Iowa State Fair for bringing a great show like this to the Grandstand. Keep up the great job. It will be difficult to top this show for next year's event... but you can do it!

I went to this concert mostly looking forward to Mercy Me. They were good but not great. I really enjoyed watching Newsboys though.

Blistering Hot - Humidity that could be cut with a knife - This was the start of the evening. Even through the conditions were a bit unbearable, the event was Christ honoring and memorable. Both MercyMe and the Newsboys put on not only an incredible show, they brought an atmosphere of worship that overcame the conditions of nature. I left feeling that I was brought nearer to Christ and the cross. Michael Tait is a great addition to an already legendary Christian band. Newsboys are fresh and relevant as ever. MercyMe's set was outstanding. Their use of lights and screens onstage was simple yet incredible. I would not only invite your Christian friends to come but those that you want to introduce to the Author of Salvation as well. Christ be glorified and bless these men with a heart for worshiping Christ through their music!

Concert of course was extremely hot. Had to wait in line to get tickets to exchange for drinks, only two people exchanging money? They ran out of tickets shortly after I got mine. They also ran out of bottle water??? Tickets. I ordered 4 tickets very early, because we had someone that struggled getting up stairs I requested handicapped tickets. I was told they could only give us two which was fine but I was told our seats would be directly behind her. As it was we were but way up in the upper deck. When I got my tickets I saw the first two up front and never thought to check the other two. Needless to say we worked things out so that the person that needed help had someone to give her a hand. Concert. This is the second time we have been at a Mercy Me live concert and have to say were disappointed. The sound was to loud and as we could hardly make out the words which are so beautiful. The bass was overbearing esp. with the Newsboys. Btw we don't mind loud music. Keep inviting performers like this it is awesome to be amoung thousands of worshipers

News Boys were great. Very talented and the new lead singer such a voice. Mercy Me as always just lifted my spirits. Fantastic pearing of talent.

Very empowering performance! Newsboys were great and Mercy Me had a good mix of new and older songs. Very enlightening and I would recommend this performance to anyone looking to experience the movement of the Holy Spirit through the Body of God's people.

Amazing! It was hot out, but it didn't matter. It was a great event.

The Newsboys were great! MercyMe not as great as I had hoped, but still really good. The sound wasn't very good, but it was a State Fair and way too hot of a day. The venue needs too put the poles on their map.

I am an absolute fan of MercyMe and Newsboys. To have such wonderful bands come to the Iowa State Fair is a blessing. The ticket pricing I felt was reasonable. To be able to worship and enjoy God's word at an outdoor facility like that is wonderful...thank you for bringing them to the Iowa State Fair!
