Haven't updated in a while i know..Been a bit in my own world..As usual. But so.
On Saturday we were in Chinatown. Had brunch with the Marshalls, Sheena's boyfriends family. We were about to leave when we heard a piano..Went over to see what it was all about and I heard a lady say, "is it ok if we bring some Jesus into this place?"..That's what made us stay!

Harlem Gospel Choir! African-Americans from New York. GAH! So cooL! After that we found out they had a concert on Sunday night. Guess what?? WE WENT FOR IT! Haha..IT WAS COOL! ahhaha..yup yup..

Here is a video I took from youtube. I took a video of them with my phone but it was crappy so I decided to get one from youtube. The people from the youtube video is like the whole massive choir from New York. The people that came to Adelaide are in there but yeah..Only 9 of them came to Adelaide. So here it is...



Let me tell you a little bit about them..They are WORLD FAMOUS! They performed for Pope John Paul the Second, Nelson Mandela, performed with Whoopi Goldberg, U2, The Chieftains, Jimmy Cliff, Diana Ross, Andre Rieu and Gorillaz. Yes..

The founder of the Harlem Gospel Choir is Allen Bailey. He has been in the entertainment industry for over 40 years! Was a promotional director and advance man for major recording artists and film stars like Lionel Richie and to Commodores, Prince, Michael Jackson, Mr T, and Isaac Hayes. Yeah.. Don King appointed him entertainment coordinator for Rumble in the Jungle, the heavy-weight title fight between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman in Zaire. Now that is pretty cooL..

Now..The most annoying thing about all of this is that Allen Bailey's favourite was MISHA! Hahha..He called her up on stage at the concert..Gave her a free cd with his autograph on it. Got her a present and asked us to go to his hotel to collect it..(cause he didnt know we were coming to the concert so he left it there) ...SHe was so super happy ok!! Loser she is! But it was all fun..hahaha
