One More Channel Islands Photo!

Libera posted their Channel Islands photo album today! You can see it here. They are all the same pictures from their blog except for one! I'm pretty sure it's from when they were on Jersey. It's Michael U-R and Ciaran waving from a boat. There's 2 other boys we can't see. And is that Josh driving the boat?!! He has a black hoodie on! They're definitely having fun! =D

Libera's Blog - Jersey & Guernsey Part 2

So part 2 of Mr. Raring-to-go's blog is up! I love this kid...whoever he is! You can read it here.

I can just imagine how messy their rooms get with 8 people in them. It reminds me of summer camp. Sure you're gonna have a few neat people, but that's more than made up for by the people whose suitcases explode when they hit the floor. lol.

Great word alert - spiffing! I think it means splendid. Or posh! Nice they could stay in a spiffing, posh hotel! :D

Guernsey concert

When talking about the first Guernsey concert at St. James's, our writer says, "it was very nice to sing in, and I sounded fantastic, if I say so myself." lol.

Michael playing Hide & Seek

Isaac & Jakob playing chess while Adrian, Matthew R-A & Henry watch.

Matthew R-A, Ben & Matthew M on the gladiator thingies. :D

They played so many games. Let's see...I know what hide & seek is, but what is 40-40 home? Maybe another hiding game? Chess (is that Isaac playing against Jakob?!), croquet, bowling with bumpers, gladiator bouncy castles, archery, football (yay Kavana's team!), and tonswater games (I guess Cassius won the disease game)!

Jude doing archery

7-on-7 football - looks like Michael, Lucas, Matthew M & Henry

Ben & Eoghan, not sure on the first 2

So now I think the boys have a few more weeks before school starts again. Thanks for sharing what your fun days in the Channel Islands were like! Hope you have a great rest of your summer!

More Jersey/Guernsey Photos from Martin

Martin is a Libera fan from Germany. He went to all 4 concerts in the Channel Islands and said it was the best holiday of his life! He drove to Saint Malo in France, visited Mont Saint Michel (I want to visit there, too!) and took a ferry to Jersey. He told everyone at the hotel and after Mass on Sunday about Libera's concerts. A family from Germany who had never heard of Libera went to the concert and really enjoyed it! Other people from his hotel went also! That's awesome!!! :D

He sent his pictures to share with everyone! They're really nice! Someone said one of the boys has Bieber hair. I'm noticing some pretty awesome hair on a lot of them! lol.

Thank you so much, Martin! Wish I could've been there in Jersey and Guernsey, too! If you copy any pictures, please give him credit!

Jersey #1

Daniel is looking right at the camera! Hi, Daniel! :D

They're all so cute!

Jersey #2

Love this one!

 

End of encore! You can see Mr. Prizeman on the left.

As the music echoes at the end...

I love this one with Mr. Prizeman, too!

2-handed wave from Isaac! :D

Libera's Blog - Jersey & Guernsey Part 1

Well, I'm super busy getting ready for university, but I'm NEVER too busy for one of my favorite things...Libera's blog about their tours! I love these!!! Let's relive the Jersey part of the tour through whichever-boy-it-is-who-wrote-this's eyes! You can read their blog here. :D

Rehearsal on Jersey

Wow! It seems like they had a lot of fun on Jersey! It's nice to have a more laid-back tour every now and then, and it certainly seems like this was one of those. They had a nice few first days, rehearsing, walking around, relaxing, and watching movies. It sounds like they really enjoyed singing in St. Thomas's church, and how could they not? Between the amazing acoustics and the food..."C’est supercool! (oh, and we’ve been practicing some nearby language)!" lol.

Cassius O'Connell-White & Matthew Madine handing out concert flyers.

And of course they had to have a competition on who could hand out the most pamphlets. They're boys. That's what they do! lol. Besides, who wouldn't want to come to their concert with those charming accents and those cute faces smiling up at you! :D

Ben Fairman, Isaac London & Matthew Madine at aMaizin! Adventure Park.

Then they had the two excellent concerts "with lots of boys doing new solos and harmony parts" and headed off for more fun! The aMaizin! Adventure Park sounds like a blast! And corn mazes are so fun! Ours have high platforms so the parents can look out and find their kids if they get lost! :D

But wait! There's more! Off they went to the other side of the island to stay at a hostel for their choir holiday! Our writer describes everything as "short." A short flight, a short drive. Compared to flying halfway around the world or driving across the US, this really WAS short! 

Chess master, Adrian Sheard! :D

Their first day there was filled with playing games and walking - I tell the kids I babysit that we're "exploring" - and a movie night.

Cassius O'Connell-White somewhere in a corn field!

Super glad they got to watch some of the Olympics, especially since it was happening in their home town! "Various cheers for various countries, all sorts." Yay! We cheered for some of your athletes, too! ;D

Explorations and discoveries!

It seems like they had a lot of fun at the Durrell Zoo and the beach! Wonder which boys got buried up to their heads?! :D Can't wait to hear what they did on Guernsey! More fun to come...!

Guernsey Photos by Bullehynka

Bullehynka is a French fan who got to go to both of the Guernsey concerts. She posted these awesome pictures on the French forum to share with everyone. Thank you, Bullehynka! :D

I love the look on Isaac's face! And you can see Jonathan on the right! :D

If you re-post these pictures, please give her credit.

Yorkie's Guernsey Review & Pictures

If you can't go to a Libera concert, what's the next best thing? No, not an illegally uploaded video of the concert! Pictures and videos from other fans who WERE there! That's what I try to share when I get to go to concerts. Thankfully, there are other fans who also like to share with us all!

Yorkie is from Yorkshire, England, and he got to go to all 4 Channel Islands concerts! He took some really nice pictures and did a nice review which you can read here in the 3rd entry down.

I like that he thought the lighting was the best ever! And I'm wondering which boy has the perfect Bieber haircut! I could take a guess! lol.

I love his "Cassius had jam or some stain on robe at start of second half in G2 – just as they did the speech about keeping robes spotless from orange squash!" That's OK, Cassius! It happens to me, too! lol.

Yay for Josh! His piano playing on Ave Verum was excellent! He also directed the "Sanctus" video for Japan TV. Maybe he's going to work for Libera all the time! :D

And I like to see Libera concerts multiple times in a row, too! Every concert is different, and you notice things you didn't notice before, like who's singing a certain part or funny things the boys do. It's awesome!

Thank you, Yorkie, for the great review and pictures! Here's just a few of them. :D

Aren't the little ones just SO cute?!!! :D

Guernsey Concert #2

Libera's final concert of their Summer Tour is done! Fan de LoK said that it was a fantastic concert! They made the color effects even better tonight which made it a delight for the eyes as much as for the ears! Yuki said the final concert was stunning! Some of the boys' families were there, too!

St. James' Hall has a "Concert Tonight" banner now! Photo by Fan de LoK.

Hope the audiences enjoyed Libera's concerts and hope Libera enjoyed their time in the Channel Islands. :D

Guernsey Video Clip

Once again a very short video, but that's OK. It's a video from Guernsey! The concert hall used to be a church, and you can tell from the look and sound. Thank you to Viktar for uploading it! :D

Guernsey Concert #1

UPDATED

Libera's first Guernsey concert is complete! Fan de LoK reports that it was a great concert with the same songs and soloists as in Jersey. Yorkie said it was a very good show! :D

Libera Is In Guernsey, Channel Islands!

Libera was seen traveling by ferry from Jersey to Guernsey today. They should be there by now. Some fans also travelled on the same ferry last week.

Ferry from Jersey to Guernsey. Red shirts are a youth sports team from Germany.

Guernsey has so many Libera concert fliers up! They are on all of the buses!

Hope this means Libera will get lots of new fans! The fliers show that the Guernsey concerts are "in association with Headway Guernsey." :D It is a charity for adults with brain injuries. Libera also supported Headway Jersey.

Looks like everyone will have a fun time! Concert tomorrow night! :D
