Using the My Stryper Tour Map

The map at the top of this blog is not only a valuable resource for those who want to follow my Stryper tour tour, but it will also help those just following the band.


The map contains the locations of all the Stryper concerts and also places that I plan on going to in addition to the concerts.










By clicking on either the icon on the map or the left hand menu, details for the event are displayed on the map. This includes a link to the Stryper Forum thread on the concert, details of the venue, and a link to the venue's website. Later links will also be added to any photos, reviews etc that are relevant to that concert. There will be a link to navigate you around this blog.
You can also click on "Get Directions" and enter your address and get directions to the venue






The map also has a function to "Search Nearby" to find locations in the area. For example if you wanted to find somewhere to eat near a concert venue you can search "restaurant."







So there you have it. Following Stryper has never been made easier. Please note that to get the full functionality of this map you need to click on the option to view larger map (right click - open in new window).

My Stryper Tour Tour Introduction

Hello fellow Stryper fans...

Since it is unlikely that there will be a Stryper tour of New Zealand, there will instead be a New Zealand(er) tour of Stryper. I am calling it “My ‘Stryper Tour’ Tour” (very original I know!). During the time when Stryper are touring the US I will be touring as well, pretty much following the band’s itinerary as much as practically possible and attending as many of the shows as I can. My Stryper Tour Tour is going to be logistically challenging and a bit expensive. So I’m Calling on You, my fellow Stryper fans to help me out if you can.

There are many ways in which you could assist me on my travels. I would love it if people who live in cities that are hosting a Stryper concert would be so kind as to allow me to lodge with them when I am visiting their city to see the Stryper show. I’m a very easy going guy and don’t need anything fancy, a couch or a bit of floor space will do the trick if that’s all you have. If this is not possible you may be able to point me in the direction of a good cheap hotel that you know of in your area or provide some other advice or assistance of some sort. Also if you are planning on seeing more than one show maybe we can coordinate our travels between cities. I would also be keen to hear from those who are unable to help out but are going to shows and would like to hang at the concerts and rock out to the world’s greatest band together. For the period 9/20-10/6 I will be travelling with my wife, the other times it is just me.

If you think that you may be able to help me out or would just like to find out more (with no obligation) there are a few ways to let me know.... post below; send me a message on http://www.facebook.com/Hagues or email me mystrypertour@gmail.com if you do either of the last two make sure you have something Stryper related in the subject line so I know its not spam.

Look forward to meeting you all one way or another on the tour.
