Although praise & worship band MercyMe was founded in 1994, vocalist Bart Millard says that the group's birth was a process God began in him during high school.

The only similarity between the popular PBS series "Antiques Roadshow" and the music event "Rock and Worship Roadshow" is, well, the word "roadshow." One attracts droves of people hoping that old objects will fatten their pockets - a pleasant experience of course.

MercyMe tops the eclectic lineup at the Rock & Worship Roadshow, with frontman Bart Millard also appearing as a special guest speaker.

On Thursday, May 3, the popular Christian band MercyMe will be playing a show at Bethany Assembly of God in Agawam.

The Rock & Worship Roadshow will start its fourth annual tour this spring featuring MercyMe, Tenth Avenue North, LeCrae, Hawk Nelson, Disciple, Sidewalk Prophets and Rend Collective Experiment.
