My Delirious? Experience.

About a week ago I wnet on this Youth Trip to Aquire the Fire which was amazing. They had everything there bright colorful lights amazing music and just wonderful people there to speak to us.

The 2nd day of ATF was the concert day where all the bands from everywhere played and the "big hit band" that was play was Delirious? Now at this time i was a so-so fan of delirious? i knew who they were and knew most of there songs but i was no die heart fan like i am now.

So Finally Delirious? came out and I was so close I could smell Martin... well he didn't smell wodnerful.. a tad sweaty but oh well that didn't matter. So Martin reached out toward me to grab a hold of my hand. He holds my hand and gives me a wink. Then later on he notices that there was only a few people including myself near the stage that were fans and knew the words to the songs so he took his mic. that was on the stand and placed it int he crowd and me and a few other got to sing along.. wow that feeling of singing along with Delirious? and being so close to Martin was just so much I could take in at once but no it wasn't over.

During the last song he came down to the very edge of the stage and started singing down there to the point where i was so close i could see the sweat on his face .. hahaha which wasn't that much of sweat but .. that wasn't important.

Well after that I bought the World Service CD and a Delirious? Shirt and Sticker (to put on my guitar.. i put stickers of my favorite bands all over my guitar). I've been listening to Delirious? music non-stop since then. it's been a blast!
