The Petra Zone

We all know that the greatest lead singer(s) to ever grace the stage is/are Mr. Greg X. Volz and/or Mr. John Schlitt. This subject has been covered extensively through the years! In the interest of lightening up a little, I thought it would be interesting to examine the second best. :cry: http://www...

"If you don't work, you don't eat." And now we're getting reports that a bunch of lazy good-for-nothings are taking advantage o...

Amen

Just found out that Classic Petra has switched from William Morris Endeavors to H2O for booking purposes. I'm not sure if that is a step up or down! Their quoting me a price of $7500. To 10k a pop!

Very Cool!

I don't think this is what you think it is.

Your probably right, but at this point in the game is it really a bad thing or at least a step in the right direction?

Hay at least someone is willing to stick their neck out for the band.

Classic Petra has a record deal with ANR Records

Also, has anyone noticed that BTTRL is now available on Blu-Ray!

I think within the next couple of yrs you will see some type of tour on a medium to large scale with Greg & John and other principle members of the band playing together on the same stage. I believe this is the only way that Petra successfully can sustain itself in today's market. This could happen...

Off hand I would have to say "I come out fighting" it has a grate 80s vibe. The No room in the middle project is really good too.

[John Schlitt] doesn't have the chops anymore to re-sing his old stuff and do it justice... I don't know about that. They'd have to drop it an octave, but I think he could still rock it. Even the Classic Petra stuff is a lower pitch than the originals to account for Greg's seasoned pipes. The crazy...

I wouldn't worry about it. They are still doing shows and the last we heard they are being courted for a record deal. There is no bad news that I can see in any of that. Classic Petra is just fine the way it is, no sense in messing with it. A one off show with John would be great, but John should s...

So how far are you talking about going with this, Wake-Up Call, PP2, or all the way to JAH? This sounds like a good option for the PC3 thing, scrap the solo stuff!

So, they would just stick to the 86-87 stuff or would you have Mark fill in for Ronny?
