So as the year closes out we sit here and look back at what made 2008. We have come up with our lists of what we thought was HOT in 08.

Haste the Day will appear on the Saints & Sinners Tour for 2009 alongside Senses Fail, Hollywood Undead and Brokencyde (Dates listed below).  The band is currently on it's headlining run of the Midwest and southeast titled The Twelve Days Of Christmas Tour with support from Sky Eats Airplane, Emarosa, and Inhale/Exhale.  The band recently released their new full-length Dreamer to critical and fan acclaim.  http://www.myspace.com/hastetheday. 

Christian music mainstay newsboys and international outreach organization Global Tribe hosted its debut REACH event last month at Tucson Electric Park in Tucson, Ariz. Drawing a capacity crowd of 15,000, more than 600 attendees responded to the Gospel message presented by newsboys frontman Peter Furler.
