The Ultimate Event

Well, its official, I have been booked in to host this brilliant event again. I love The Ultimate Event and have worked with the guys that run it for about 5 years now. Its the largest 1 day Christian music event in the uk and has had some of the biggest Christian artists from around the world in past years.

The vision of the event is a simple one, to convey a positive message to the youth that come along. A message that will not be found in many other places in music.

This year they have Delirious, a band that has had 5 top 20 hits but has never been featured on Top of the Pops (RIP). This actually makes them the only band to have had that many chart entries that hasn't been featured on there. Why? Because the message in their songs may offend! May offend who? They had songs on there about sex, violence, death and worse but if a song contains lyrics about God it may offend? Strange!

We also have Toby Mac. Toby was one part of arguably the biggest Christian band of our time, DC Talk. Who? Well there hasn't been a whole lot of talk about them in the uk, in the usa though, they went platinum many times over! Toby brings with him some of the best HipHop, rock fusion there is!

Its going to be exciting, hopefully it will be a repeat of a couple of years ago when we sold out of all 12,000 tickets. Oh, and did I mention that its the whole day in Alton Towers theme park as well as the gig? Well it is, why would you NOT come?
