Re: THEY OWNED THE STAGE!!

I think you have it right in some ways and I like your idea about including most or all members in something. I will say I really don't care if their current or not and just want to hear Petra play what is in their heart not what someone would say "hey this could go well on radio" A band with this ...

Re: THEY OWNED THE STAGE!!

I was in the office and my wife was in the living room when I played this and she thought John sounded horrible, and I have to agree with her, not his best performance. Also Ronny does not look good bald. Really, I'd have to agree with those sentiments. It's hard to believe that John's having troub...

Re: THEY OWNED THE STAGE!!

Excuse me for not knowing anything about anything Petra-related, but who is the 6th guy?

Re: DREAM TEAM REUNION ANNOUNCED...you read correctly

I can't believe I actually got to watch the live stream! My entire family (me, my parents, 2 sisters, & 4 brothers) watched it during dinner... not what we'd normally do. My opinion on the concert? Very imbalanced; of the artists that were there, some were on the stage constantly, but others only di...

Re: Music reviews for you

CD, Compact Disc? I have heard rumours that these CD things will take over vinyls and cassettes... but I don't believe it... next they will tell us that VHS is going to be replaced by a disc... just non-sense. About as likely as completely removing analog television. Vinyls aren't replaceable becau...

Re: Greg X Volz Solo

"Break Out of The Trance" and "Livin' For the Bell" are both about the #1 for me; I really love that album! The only song on The River Is Rising that I don't really care for is the title track... "Joyous grave" didn't rank very high with me, either, though. There are two different kinds of Volz song...

Re: song structure

Most songs have the verses alternating with the chorus, it's primarily a question of the two verses and the bridge. "Test of Time" is an example of a Petra song which does not have the structure being discussed. With this in mind, most hymns do not follow this structure, as most of them have more th...

Re: DREAM TEAM REUNION ANNOUNCED...you read correctly

Personally, I would like Hartman, Schlitt, and Lawry to do something, and then fill in the needed positions with the first guys that come along (Greg B. & Christian, maybe?) That would be WONDERFUL, but what would they do? To make it worth it, they could make an all-new album, but they won't. I thin...

Re: Petra Vinyl

I usually just look on eBay, which works for LPs of On Fire! or older; never seen Beyond Belief or Unseen Power on LP, though apparently P-freak can change that :) I wouldn't waste my time on amazon; never seen anything good there. As far as singles are concerned, you just gotta wait until one shows...

Re: DREAM TEAM REUNION ANNOUNCED...you read correctly

Petra will never fully come back; they're just one of the many old bands that simply can't get new fans anymore. They're in the bunch of "classic" bands now (with the Sweet Comfort Band, the Imperials, etc.), and that can't be changed by any amount of money. The only reason any Petra lineup will get...

Re: Rare On Fire Video Event on eBay: 7 hours left to bid

It's a small group of people who are gonna buy that, but those who will are going to pay quite a bit for it. I might want it, but would never buy it. I did buy the CITAS video, though. I like less expensive things :)

Re: 100 Greatest Christian Rock Guitarists

I noted Kirk Henderson's presence in the list; I really like his music, although I don't know of him doing anything besides some of Greg X. Volz's solo albums. I thought Bob Hartman should be a little higher in the list... but then I'm a "Pethead". With 100 outstanding Christian guitarists, I think ...

Happy thanksgiving!

I wish a happy Thanksgiving to all those who celebrate the holiday... if there are any of those left. I went to Walmart today and noticed an interesting phenomenon, namely, that while the general public has ceased to recognize Thanksgiving day, they still go into "black friday" fervently. Guess that...
