You thought Newsong was a rock band?! LOL! My whole point was that they were too old and too slow to be at this rock show! I mean, they sang, "Arise, My Love" and they're responsible for "Christmas Shoes"! I really don't like them at all (although I do admit "Arise, My Love" is a beautiful - albeit boring - song), except for that one guitar solo with the scary Mr. Clean-looking guy. I don't like Newsong. And I'm thinking you must've been zoned out for much of Third Day's set too, because they did several of their non-rock songs, like "Carry My Cross/Thief", "God of Wonders" and "Cry Out to Jesus". And they had that whole acoustic bit down the stage runway.
I don't think everyone liked Newsboys best; if people did, they would be the headliners and get the longer set. Instead, Third Day is headlining and got the longer set because more people like them. I think the Newboys' frequent band member changes have cost them a lot of fans. Which is too bad, because they're still really good - just not as good as they used to be.
