Can you feel the mountains tremble??


Okay, so there aren't really mountains here, especially when compared with Mt Rainier and Mt Hood, so instead, I ask,

Can you feel the Millennium Dome tremble??

Now put that question to the tune of the Delirious? song "Can you feel the mountains tremble?" and you'll experience a little bit of what we experienced TONIGHT!

Here's how it happened: 4pm today, I get a text from a friend saying, "Do you want to go to a Delirious? concert tonight?" To which I reply "TOTALLY!"

Within an hour Micah and I had booked our tickets on-line and just two hours later this is what we looked like as we were heading down the elevator in our apartment building:


(The view from our seats)

We were both excited and curious. Delirious? is a band from our past -- the 5 members have been playing together for 16 years; officially known as Delirious? for 15 and most of the music of theirs that we have is their early stuff. It was great to see the changes over the years because they played songs from almost every era... as well as some new songs from a soon-to-be-released album!

As mentioned, this infamous UK band has been together for a long time and tonight was the last time that Stewart Smith (aka Stew), the energetic, charismatic, hyper-active, passionate drummer would play publicly with the band. He is stepping out in order to pursue more time with his family and other directions in which God is leading him...

The tribute to him was fantastic and is was awesome to be a part of such a great event!
