Good and Bad News...

First things first... I'm finally back from my vacation! It took a bit.. no a lot longer than I expected, so I was unable to get back to the blog. Now I'm back so I'm excited to be blogging again!

As you probably read on the title of this entry, there are some good news and some bad news. Of course, bad news first. I'm not entirely sure if I will go to the concert. That's some bad news right there. For me at least. We live in Virginia, and it will take a pretty long while to get to Texas. And the concert is a little over a week away!!! Oh well. I will fight the good fight, keep my fingers crossed, and send a prayer up every day to be able to go to the concert. It's not hopeless, because my aunt is visiting in Arkansas only a few hour's drive away from Frisco, which means my mom will want to go see her. That's a very solid stronghold I have to fulfill my dream.

I've been talking about myself too much now. Lol. Let's get down to business, shall we? Libera is oficially in the US! We American fans are delighted to be standing on the same ground, and breathing the same air as Libera. Hahaha! Of course, their first concert was on July 27, and there is another concert today in St. Paul. Very, very exciting. Even more exciting is the list of singers and songs. Thank you, DearMadine for posting a list. And many thanks to Fan_de_Lok for the information!

Holy cow, do you see the underlined names???? The moment everyone has been waiting for... the truth is unveiled... the Madines are in America. OH. MY. JOSH. It is better than I was expecting. Honestly, I was pretty sure that Josh was going to be on the tour, but if his brother is here too, then that is simply amazing. Also, I highlighted the names of the members that are relatively new to Libera. Of course, we have seen a few of them before, such as Eoghan McCarthy and Jude Collins. But there are kids up there that I had no clue existed. I guess we finally get to meet the Mini-Boys, don't we? Another thing I have to point out here is that Libera is sort of having a family reunion here. Sam Leggett didn't go on the Canadian Tour. Also, some of the songs they are using are relatively old, such as Stay with Me and Love and Mercy. I have the feeling that this is going to be the best US tour that Libera has ever been on. I'm EXTREMELY excited, and I hope I get to go. People out there who are considering on going to a concert... be there. This is something no one should miss.

Just a Quick Message

First off, hey, everybody! I just need to make a few things clear. I will be gone for at least a week next week because I am going to a camp in the mountains, where its so secluded, you can hear the bears scratching at your cabin window at nighttime. Obviously, there is absolutely no signal there, so I cannot catch up with Libera or this blog. Sad sad, and it's such a bad time too, right before the tour. Please, if you can, send me an e-mail with some updates, because after the camp week, I will leave immediately for Miami and I will have a little time to catch up. Well, given our hotel has WiFi, anyways. Another thing, I have made a little rescheduling with my concert planning. Instead of attending the St. Louis concert, I will most likely be going to Frisco, since my dad has business in Arkansas around that time.

Moving on. I have soo much busy work this summer, but luckily, Libera manages to make their way into every day. Today, I looked in my mailbox, and I found the Libera Angel Voices Concert DVD that I ordered. YAYAYAY!! I was so excited! It came a bit earlier than I expected, so I was glad. My dad and Grandma watched it with me. They both enjoyed it a lot. Just a few comments on the DVD:


The intros were really cute! Everyone did a really nice job, but they were shorter than the ones from the newer concerts. And I was happy to be re-introduced to some older members like Tom Cole and Conor O'Donell. And Michael Horncastle, of course. I was soo amused by the little baby faces of our well-known Josh, long gone Tom and Ed, and the amazingly tired look on Liam. Over all, the concert was so good, and I wish I would have been there live.

I will stay on the blog as long as I can until Sunday, when I leave. Let's hope Libera gives some more tour details until then.
