Casting Crowns

My name is Michele Bodendorf. I purchased tickets for this concert in January of 2024. My fiancé and I were excited to go to this concert. I had moved at the end of April. My fiancé was at the hospital in Spruce Pine Hospital on May 1st, in the evening. He proposed to me on May 1st 2021. My life forever changed with a phone call that he had cancer. He had to go to Charlotte for treatment for 12 days. So, here I am with him in Charlotte, knowing the concert was on Friday night. I tried to transfer the tickets, with no luck. So I lost 138.00 dollars, and no concert. I wouldn't trade my time with my sweetheart for nothing. He passed on May 14th after being home for 18 hrs. God knows he was ready to go home to heaven. I miss him so much, but will see him again, no doubt. I would love to have the opportunity to see Casting Crowns in concert in the future. Some of their songs holds a special place in my heart. I just wanted to share my story, hope it reaches the right people. God bless!

The 5 songs I was blessed to hear were great! But my journey to get there was terrible. I ordered my tickets paid $189. For them ticket masters all good until I went to open the app the app was hacked by a third party, when I called the number on the app they told me for an hour that my tickets were on hold and I had to rebuy them and they would refund my money. Well they charged me another $150 telling me they gave me a discount. I till couldn’t pull the tickets up. So I was out of almost $400. I was crying and I looked for another number to call and they said the ticket would be at the box office it was not. I had my receipt with the seat number and the concert was almost over they let us in. I will never buy another ticket on line again. I’m blessed to have heard 5 songs and felt the Holy Sprit there. God bless all of Casting Crowns and their families and crew. All glory to God. Amen.

Concert was amazing! It’s the second one I’ve been to of casting crowns and I really liked how they gave a history of how the band was formed. Only reason I gave it a 4.5 star rating was because of how they set up the stage. They used black curtains all around the stage to frame it and from the seats we had on the second level off to the side of the stage it blocked some of our view of the stage. We couldn’t see the orchestra and we also couldn’t see the screen they had set up behind the performers on stage. You could still see the main singers though so it doesn’t ruin that but I think they should have let you know there would’ve been an obstructed view of the stage.other than that it was great and Mark and some of the band even stayed after the show to take pictures with people which I thought was so nice!

In the future let people who arrive early be allowed to go to the bathroom, security would not allow it, they even would not allow a down syndrome woman to go to the bathroom, for a Christian organization this is inexcusable, if my brother Mark Hall knew this he would let her in. The concert was very good, I have a concern for the limited number of exits given the amount of people attending, my understanding if sold out that would be 7,000 people exiting all at once???

We loved the venue , we loved the stories about how all the members of the band joined . We loved the music and the interaction with the crowd . The whole concert experience was wonderful, amazing everything we could have imagined and more . We Mark stopped walking down the stairs to come and say Hi to my son Titus and get his picture taken with him . Made the whole evening for my son . The night will be an amazing memory. Thank you so much for the music and the testimonies and the memories. So so so grateful and blessed that we went .

What an experience! To learn they are still active in their home church and go out on the road. This was a Church Revival, not a show. I probably cried through half the show because the emotions I felt. Celebrating God and Jesus with hundreds of Christians who names I don't know is an experience. My wife and I became born again this summer. What a great experience to be part of to help you with faith in the Lord and Lord Christ. How they started and how they got where they are now is a wonderful testimony of God. I will want to see them again if they are in the area again. Praise God the father and his son Lord Jesus!

The entire night was awesome I was able to get my guitar autographed by all the Band members which was awesome huge crowd it was so amazing seeing all the people in the room worshiping the Lord and symphony, orchestra was so beautiful I would like to thank Britney for her amazing help at the concert taking my guitar back stage and having all the band members autograph my guitar that and all the music and worshiping the Lord with my mom thank you Casting Crowns for an amazing performance thank you to the Symphony Orchestra they did an amazing performance

The concert itself was GREAT but the East Bleacher seats aren’t worth much more than $5-10. $23 is overpriced for a non existent (maybe minuscule is a better descriptor) view of the band. I know the Fair needs to make money but I will be positive never to book one of those seats again. Could have probably stood outside the grandstand gate for free and would have been happier because still could have listened to the band but not had to pay for those particular seats. I was so so happy to hear the music. Been listening for over 18 years and LOVE the band (and saw them in concert at Alive Fest about that many years ago) so nothing negative about the band. Just the dorky seats

The Casting Crowns concert at the Georgia was great. The crowd was enthusiastic and the group played all their hits. My only complaint was with the venue. Don’t go to Georgia Mountain Fair if you have any mobility issues. The handicapped parking area was on an unpaved hillside. Luckily, we were able to flag down a golf cart that took us close to the entrance. Getting in the ticket area was still difficult. When the concert was over we were told we would have to find our own way back to the dimly lit parking area! Had we know this we would never attended this venue. We weren’t alone in this situation. Luckily we were able to get a venue staffer to take us back to the handicapped parking area after the the concert traffic had mostly dispersed. This was at least an hour after the concert. Don’t know the area and we will never know how this venue is able to operate without better arrangements for visitors to the area. The staff was helpful, but this is a terrible venue for anyone with mobility issues. 5 stars for the group-zero stars for the venue. Be forewarned!!!

I’ve seen Crowns twice now, and both times they were highly engaging, musically spot-on, and brought an incredible message of strength and endurance in Jesus. This time, they brought Ben Fuller and We Are Messengers with them. Ben Fuller was equally engaging, and his music was an authentic Americana mix. WAM did a good job further warming us up, but their sound - particularly the drums - came off overly polished and cold in my opinion. Otherwise, this was a very warm and worshipful night, and I recommend anyone make the effort to join them if they have an opportunity.

Casting Crowns, Without A Doubt, Is One Of The Greatest Christian Bands. Their Music Is So Good, They Get You Refreshed And In The Spirit Of Jesus. What A Beautiful Combination Of Singing, Preaching And Love For Our Lord Jesus Christ!! If You Have Not Seen Casting Crowns Live In Concert, Please Go See Them, You Will Not Be Disappointed!!! This Band Will Definitely Move You Into Bonding With The Saviour!! I Love Casting Crowns, They Have Been And Always Be A Huge Influence In My Life, God Bless Casting Crowns. Thank You Jesus For Giving Us A Wonderful And Loving Band......Amen!!

Several years ago, when JUST BE HELD was first released, the company where I was employed was about to relocate from Wichita Falls to Irving, TX. I was staying here in WF and looking for a job at 60. The first time I heard this song, it brought tears to my eyes. To me, it was My Heavenly Father comforting and lovingly encouraging me. Little did I know that this was my retirement. Now, in these last days, this JUST BE HELD once again ministered to my brokenness lovingly encouraging me to allow My Heavenly Father to JUST BE HELD and trust Him.

Loved loved loved Casting Crowns, Mark is such a great story teller! Can so relate to your music. Loved how you had the lyrics listed, it made a deeper connection. This was my 2nd time seeing Casting Crowns. I purchased the VIP tickets and was glad I did t have to stand in the long lines outside (well worth it). Great gifts too as VIP! A CD and $10 off merchandise. I enjoyed Brian Fuller as well. Was not familiar with his music. We are the messenger… the sound system was off and over powered the “message” over amplified. The lighting system was a bit off and kept shining in our eyes. Overall I had a great experience!

My husband and I really enjoyed your concert we have waited years to see you all We live in Henderson ky we have tried to get tickets twice but he had back surgery once and had to work the other he surprised me and got tickets on the floor for this concert we were close to the long stage and got some good pictures so I m sending them.also I want to thank Mark for writing that song when he had cancer unfortunately I was diagnosed with lung cancer in July its a type that nonsmokers can get the doctor took off the bottom lobe of my right lung I didn't have to have any treatments but I had a 13 day stay in the hospital because of staph infection around my lung due to the doctor leaving both chest tubes in to long Due to that I was sent home with strong antibiotics that my husband had to give me though a port in my arm 4 times a day for 10 Days than I took antibiotics pills 4 times a day I had just taken my last one the night of your concert when I found out I had cancer I question God and ask so many times why did I have cancer i was scared and mad I was coming home from the doctors appointment and the song mark had written came on k love I turned it up and started crying I pulled into a parking lot and ask God to forgive me I know it wasn't him that gave me cancer it just happened but I think him so very much for staying with me during this and for sending me not only my best friend But a wonderful husband and father God bless you all we can't wait to see you all again soon im keeping up with your concerts So we can get tickets close to Henderson ky where we live and get seats by the stage thank you all for sharing your beautiful talents with us we love you all.

My son and I attended the concert. The concert was very good, but was not what we expected. We have attended quite a few Christian contemporary concerts and this turned out to be not what we expected, based on our past experiences. We were expecting it to rock more. Somewhere between We The Kingdom and Crowder. We were familiar with their music and know that some of their songs have a little more edge to them, but the concert was more laid back. Now having said all of that, it was still an excellent concert. As Christians, I we shouldn’t mind a little bit of testifying and such. Common for a Christian concert anyway. And what was said was good and hit home a few times. The songs were good, delivered well and sounded very good. I wish I could have heard more of their old classics though.

More than just being 'entertained", I was challenged by the Holy Spirit to get out of my comfort zone to live as a Christ follower. To live a life that's pleasing to the Creator of the universe, to live with reckless abandon, to love as Christ loves, to be the hands and feet of Jesus. To take up my cross daily and to not only follow, but to be obedient to the Word and will of God almighty through Jesus Christ. May God bless the ministry and the lives of those within Casting Crowns as they seek to point others to the forgiveness and freedom that the gift of eternal salvation offers us through the blood of Jesus, a debt that has already been paid in full to anyone who will receive it freely.

I enjoyed the concert very much! It gave opportunity to put faces with songs I listen to on the radio, though I have CD's of Casting Crowns. It was a meaningful time, a "concert of worship." Casting Crowns has been my favorite contemporary Christian music group since my brother began giving me their CD's years ago. As a musician myself, I think I like hearing the harmonies better listening to the CD, than in arena setting where perhaps some of it was drowned out or not balanced where I was sitting on the floor.

Casting crowns are very good. But will never see at spectrum again unless i sit in handicap. Some people like to sit and absorb, meditate enjoy etc... there should be a section if you don't like standing, you can sit without people standing in front of you. Also, no word of sorry Hillsong is not here. Not everyone loves gossip and is in the know Of why they weren't there. Things happen to christians too, so not surprised, but no mention of it. Have yo google and come up with own conclusion

concert was awesome. Couple of things though...the drum and bass was overpowering most of the night, to the point that they almost drowned out the vocal. second is the surprise of a cashless lobby as far as refreshments and show souvenirs. not everyone depends on credit cards to run their life, but communicating that fact would be beneficial. also, during my online ticket purchase, I was not made aware that it would require a cell phone to present the ticket. Better communication all around would be an improvement.

An absolutely incredible show! The overall lineup was good, and Casting Crowns was awesome! I've seen them in concert a couple other times over the years and they just get better and better as do the records they release. One of the top Christian bands of all time without a doubt! I'd see them in concert anytime. I just hope one day to meet Mark and the others in person. That would be a real dream come true to be able to talk and visit with them for a while. To talk music and Jesus with Mark and company would be an incredible opportunity. Absolutely 5 stars every time! 💞🙏💞
