Re: Head East Song in Grown Ups 2 Trailer

It's the original artists Rainbow not Head East. Actually the original artist was Russ Ballard from his album Winning. The band Clout was the first to cover it in 1977 and Head East followed it in 1978. Rainbow was third in 1979. HE's version actually charted better than Rainbow's as well but Rainb...

Re: ON FIRE 2013 PETRA FAN CONVENTION!

But Shell, tickets to the event in general have been on sale for months! The concern is for the lack of interest in On Fire! (and Petra in general), not just the now-added less-expensive one-day ticket.

Re: CP in Ohio

I'll be there! Looking forward to it! Last time I saw Classic Petra, they weren't "classic". It was the Beat The System tour in 1985!

The Petra cartoon prints are now available by themselves for those that bought the shirt at PC3 but passed on the prints and now deeply regret it. ;)

Re: PC3 INDY! A Gathering Of Petheads! Celebrating 40 Years

PC3 was simply AWESOME! It started out with a personal message from Greg Volz welcoming everyone to the convention. That was followed by John's Official Greater Cause CD Release party. He even brought the the new CDs for any Kickstarter crewmembers in attendance. Great surprise! He played every cut ...

Re: Classic Petra - The Upcoming New Album.

Here's my thing: It seems that as each Classic Christian band/artist gets into Kickstarter, what you get for your pledge money diminishes. With John Schlitt, you got 2 signed CDs for your $30 pledge. Awesome! With John Elefante, you got 1 signed CD with your $30 pledge. Not as good, but signed at le...
