I saw them with White Lion opening, in Rochester MN in Oct of 1988..

The Centrum in Worcester MA, Nov. 19 1988. I was 15 and only my second ever rock concert. My friends and I were on the floor about 5 rows back. It was magic, as music should be at that age. Truly awe inspiring show, one favorite song after another, to hear those harmonies and heavy riffs and solid drumming recreated right before our eyes and ears was an adrenaline rush of pure joy. I'm enough of a nerd that I burned a cd with the songs in order of the setlist! This would have been a perfect tour for a live album to cap that era of the band. Alas... thanks for the upload, great memories!

I was at this show. I was 17. At the time, one of the best shows I'd ever seen!

It's awesome that even in concert they have they sound amazing..Big round of applause for there sound tech

This would have been a graduation 👨‍🎓 treat!! For me cause I graduated 1988!! Very awesome 😎 18 years old, perfect time!! Very good concert 🎶 Thanks for posting!! 😮❤🎉😊

This was the first concert I was ever at! For some reason, my grandma and aunt thought it'd be a great idea to take a baby just over a year old to a rock concert lmfao I've loved Stryper ever since, even as a non-Christian.

I went to a show on this tour on January 1989. Great show. And the set list sounds identical to the concert I went. $18 for the ticket .

SOOOO good!

Amazing! Thank you very much for this!! 😭🙏

Amazing

Gracias por está Joya🙏🙏🙏🙏

I watched a show by these guys here in Brazil in BH, September 2019, I'll tell you something that Michael Sweet sings a lot and they play a lot, it was an incredible performance!

I seen them just 2 days later in Cape Girardeau Missouri!

Í went to this show in McAllen Tx, man, great memories, thank you.

I think the drum kit is too small

First song has to have the vocals from the studio right? Sounds too dead on.

I didn’t hear any authentic high notes live in the first song here in God we trust. Every high note was lip synced. You can hear it if you listen carefully. Micheal probably didn’t want to blow out his voice on the first song.

Yes, many of the songs from the "In God We Trust" album were lip synced during this tour, at least partially.

So where are all the high vocal notes from the albums? Guess they were just studio tricks?

Albums will always have studio tricks. But Michael does hit his fair share of live high notes.

This has been gone over extensively in the books written about the band "Loud N' Clear" and to some extent "Honestly" Michael's autobiography. This IGWT tour was what Oz referred to as "The sample from hell tour". They had lights, backing tracks, keyboard vocal tracks etc. that can be played on demand to get that thick and full background vocal sound and possibly lead vocals as well. I saw them on the THWTD and IGWT tour as well (as well as many times since), and they ABSOLUTELY used backing tracks in those shows. I was a kid and could tell it sounded too much exactly like the record on tracks like "Calling on You" and "Always there for you" with huge backing vocals. Do not misunderstand, they are and always will be my favorite band of all time. And they KILL IT LIVE every single night. But Michael has talked about "singing to tracks" before in interviews as well, you can look that up on Al Gore's amazing internet! In summary: two must-have things for any Stryper fan: the books Loud N' Clear, and Honestly-Michael Sweets autobiography. You will learn so many things about the band and what they have been through.
