I anyone wants John Schlitt back to Norway next year at the Take Off Festival, please vote for him: http://www.facebook.com/questions/458083520890656/ You must have a Facebook account to vote....

Some guy recorded the full show in HD quality, but used a very bad microphone:

I have never understood why so many HD video cams have so bad mics.

Too bad that they finished the concert without saying goodbye, they just leaved the stage. That is not correct: - John Schlitt said "thank you - God bless - Thank you ,,,Brazil...seeing us....or something like that - " before the encore and after the encore John said something on spanish (I guess) ...

The set list from Porto Alegre, friday night, was like this: 1. Beat the system 2. Dance 3. Amazing grace 4. Creed 5. Judas kiss 6. Right place 7. Somebody's gonna praise His name 8. All fired up 9. Sight Unseen/It's finished/Think twice/I am on the rock/Midnight oil/This means war/It's finished rep...

That would be the worst possible scenario, there simply isn't a market for that version of the band anymore if there were they would still be around! They are still around, both incarnation of Petra (even though Petra as a band has officially retired). And there is still a marked for them. I want t...

I don't know of anyone who was disappointed that it was Farewell Petra that came to Norway, Sweden and Denmark in July. Actually, I know a lot of Petra fans that came BECAUSE it was Farewell Petra. And believe me - I talked to a lot of fans..... What Bob and Greg told me in Norway June 3, was that a...

Bob is amazing! I hope he one day will return to the "Jekyll & Hyde" sound and put out a new album with John Schlitt on vocals.
A hard & heavy Petra footprint!

Some of you might be hoping I will post more videos from TakeOFF festival in Norway. Since the promoters are doing a Pro-Shot-Production of the show, and have put much money into this, - I will not compete with them. (They know who I am). I want to play nice, and it's up to the promoters (and John S...

I asked John after the concert if he had lost control of the band, and he laughed. Actually, I don't think he had lost control, but he intended so on stage. After all, it was just the band having some instrumental fun, and it followed after the drum solo. What guitarist has not played "Smoke on the ...

My review! The TakeOFF Festival is a brand new festival, located at Lista Airport outside of Vanse in Farsund district. The promoters expected around 1000 - 1500 visitors, but there were at the most 500 at a concert. Paul Colman had (as I heard) 350 visitors, and John Schlitt had 500. The festival ...

No, this time I will not post the complete show. This is due to the following reasons: 1) I was called up on stage after "Hope That Saves The World"....I don't want you to see that..... 2) The band did a (non-christian) rock medley that I guess John doesn't want online. I could see he wasn't that ha...
