\u201cMy Glorious\u201d is probably one of my favorite rock type worship songs so I knew that we would have to interview Delirious? at some point. The show was at a large church in Oklahoma City called the Cathedral of Praise. The good people at this church are all about servitude and I mean that in a good way. In most instances I am completely respectful of the fact that to most promoters our film crew is little more than another headache to deal with prior to the show. That\u2019s OK, I used to be a promoter and that\u2019s how I would have felt. Anyway the people at the Cathedral of Praise were the exact opposite. They treated us like kings. They gave us a room to ourselves and repeatedly brought deli trays and drinks in to us (it is a dangerous thing for anyone to offer food to Ash and myself), always asking if we had everything we needed. At one point I had to tell one woman that although we appreciated it we weren\u2019t the band and they didn\u2019t have to be taking care of us so well. She looked at me like I was absolutely crazy. I really got the impression that they just want to serve the people that came into their church. Here\u2019s your shout out, people of the Oklahoma City Cathedral of Praise: You Rule!!!
\nWe did the interview with Stu G and Jon Thatcher in this TBN stye room complete with paisley, rich mahogany, potpourri, gold leaf and catering everywhere. It was easily the funniest interview we have done for \u201cBleed Into One\u201d mainly due to what we later dubbed \u201cthe language barrier.” I knew that the band was from England and knew that I would have no problem understanding them, I mean we\u2019re speaking the same language right? I never considered that they would have a problem understanding me, specifically my American euphamisms. Apparently I\u2019m much more of a rube than I thought. I became aware of this when during the interview, I asked them \u201cwhat\u2019s your take on POD?\u201d Then silence and both of the guys look at each other for a few moments as if thinking that I am insane. Then Jon says as proper and nice as can be \u201cdo you mean in a fight then?\u201d As I am still trying to process the answer when Stu says \u201cI think if we got in a fight with POD they would crush us.\u201d So we all kind of look at each other and burst into laughter. It dawns on me that what I said was \u201cwhat\u2019s your take on POD\u201d and what they heard was \u201cwhat would happen if you took on POD?\u201d Ash ever the personal motivator says \u201cEnglish, only the Queen\u2019s English, you hick\u201d to me. It was really funny. Later I said \u201clet\u2019s riff on some bands\u201d and Jon said \u201cwe don\u2019t feel comfortable ripping on other bands.\u201d
\nAs I said before I\u2019m a rube.
\nThe interview itself was pretty good. I was really interested in their influences. Being from England they were into Joy Division, Queen, Suede, Pulp, etc. Stu had even gotten to see Pink Floyd on the Wall tour if you can imagine. Wow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
