Thousands Respond to HIV Appeal at Delirious? Concerts

|PIC1|Legendary Christian band Delirious? recently wrapped up their UK tour with worship leader Tim Hughes.

The band has been promoting the HopeHIV appeal at the start of each gig, and so far, 8,800 people responded to the message. £17,000 has been raised to support the work among AIDS orphans in South Africa.

Delirious? has reached out to over a million people around the world as a result of diligent touring, after the release of their critically acclaimed eighth studio album, The Mission Bell.

Their latest project Now Is The Time: Live At Willow Creek released 9 October 2006.

Last year, the band delivered their music to an audience of 1.2 million in India while touring with dynamic preacher Joyce Meyer. In addition, front man Martin Smith and guitarist Stu G travelled to Rwanda to reach out to thousands more.

In other news, Martin Smith, Stu G, and Delirious? drummer Stew Martin are currently working on a book called "The Delirious? Code" ("The 'D' Code").

"The book will explain what a lot of our songs are about," Martin explains.
