Re: Captured In Time & Space DVD

Louie told me he has masters from the previous night's shows, which he thought were better, but they have board mixes from FOH. They used the previous shows as tech rehearsals.

Re: Remastered albums

Buy some of these and tinker with them until you like the results. Learn how to use it and bring new life to all of your recordings. https://www.izotope.com/en/products.html Or, pay for some other guy in a bedroom studio to do it. That's what is happening here. The guy doing it is not in a mastering...

Re: Newsboys Covering Petra Songs?

Royalties must be paid to do cover songs, so no, there isn't much money in it now. Back in the day, CCM bands on the same label did covers to give the songs some legs with new/different audiences. CCM bands would seed audiences for another artist's tour. It was all about relationships. As an aside f...

RIP Justin Murr

Justin Murr of Liberty N' Justice and Indie Heaven passed from COVID. His daughter posted the sad news on his Facebook page. Justin loved music and really had a heart indie musicians. John and Bob (II Guys) were members of Indie Heaven, as were we (Project Damage Control). RIP Brother!

Re: Petra Performing at Carman Tribute

Never was a Carman fan. Wasn't a Carlton Pearson fan. Never have been a cheesy TBN fan. Jacked up, desperate, no evidence Amway Jesus doctrine works. Hey you kids! Get off my yard!

You are assuming John wrote the music for that record.

Re: Remastered albums

Yeah....remastered copies of copies. Wonderful 16/44.1. Whenever someone buys them, I would like to hear an original release vs. the remasters.

Re: Remastered albums

There are no Petra masters to remaster. None of the multi-tracks were known to exist at that time. Some have turned up ruined in mini-storage units, etc. Michael Green told me they did have all of the production masters to press, and they can press anything they want, as long as there is money in it...

Re: John Schlitt/Project Damage Control Question?

Since you mentioned it, you could probably get Mike Portnoy on the album pretty easily! Well, Mechanism had Jame LaBrie's solo band guitar player and a keyboard player friend of Jordan Rudess, who is my avenue to free DT tickets (ha). That's about as close to Portnoy as I can get. He would play if ...

Good to hear you're working on more material Brent. Who is the guest artist? or is that a secret for now. You still got the same phone number?
Same home, different mobile.

JSB was good last night

Anyone else catch the FB stream?

JE can still belt it. Of Course JS was great. Monitors must have been dialed in because nobody was pitchy.

Re: John Schlitt/Project Damage Control Question?

John Schlitt was on PDC: Mechanism's "Liar Again". Greg X Volz had a part on the title track. We did not use a second track he recorded. While we will be using a former Petra member, I don't think John will be involved with PDC8. We would love to include John. We have some songs up his alley that wo...

Re: PDC 8

Greg was on Mechanism, but he is a bit too pop for lead vocals on a PDC project. This next one will take a few steps beyond Mechanism.

Re: PDC 8

John has been concentrating on his solo projects and is working on saints and sinners as well. I wonder if the world wants more than what he is doing himself.

Re: Being alone

This topic is a little different for me. My wife passed away in 2019, so I was "alone" before this pandemic nonsense even started. I put "alone" in quotes because I still have my three kids, so I'm not lacking in human contact, but I do miss having another adult in the house. Where the pandemic has...
