Re: REO/Styx/Ted Nugent Concert

REO always puts on a good show, but there is something about when they tour with STYX that kicks them up a notch. They say that they compete with one another. Whatever it is, it works. Brent, you might find this interesting. REO opens every show with "Don't Let Him Go." Know why? According to Neal D...

Re: your pets

Both cats are British Shorthairs. Yeah, I think they are cuties, but I'm biased. :)

I agree. This is definitely my favorite although I really like "Faith & Freedom" and "One of These Days" too. Actually, the only song I don't particularly like is "Live it Loud" and I don't hate it.

Re: "The Greater Cause" - John's New CD

I've yet to receive my CDs, and I only live a few hours up I-65 for pete's sake. I am giving one of them as a birthday gift; unfortunately her birthday is today and I had to give a card with a note saying "there's more to come", eventually.

Re: Go request "Hope that saves the world"!!!

No I didn't know. So is the whole CD released now? I didn't like the "I want to get payed in advanced and if you pay $1000 I will come and sing at your wedding" thing so I have not followed the development at all. Wow, who wet in your Wheaties? I can understand that some folks don't like the idea o...

Re: "The Greater Cause" - John's New CD

Well I for one will never mistake John for Carrie Underwood. And neither would I. What I meant is that photo is rather effeminate-looking and from a quick look, I could see Carrie Underwood in the eyes and smile. I do not think it is a very flattering pic of John. It looks really phony compared to ...

Re: "The Greater Cause" - John's New CD

I like the cover art too! I was afraid he was going to use the pic Sue has as her avatar. It is so retouched he looks like Carrie Underwood. The gold record and title font look a lot more like a fighter (for a greater cause).

Re: Well, Apple is going to hell now....

Remember when listening to music used to be an event, an activity all to its own? Not something you do while doing something else or to mask other sounds. The thrill of going to the record store and buying the album (or the CD), then coming home, unwrapping it, reading the thanks, credits and lyrics...

Re: John Schlitt onstage with Head East?

What on this website gives you the idea that John would actually be attending this event? My money would say, NOT!

Re: "The Greater Cause" - John's New CD

WOW! I got a wild hair yesterday and put the link and info on an REO Speedwagon message board because when I used to hang with the REO folks online there were a dozen or so hard core Petra fans as well. Since I had not been to the site in a cojuple of years, I didn't know if any of them were still t...

Re: Watching Louie on Classic Petra (TBN)

I think perhaps Louie now understands the saying, "you don't know what you've got til it's gone." If Petra meant that much to him you'd think he would have shown up for band rehearsals. Perhaps he would not have said some of the things and acted the way he did (les than godly or mature) at some gigs...

Re: "The Greater Cause" - John's New CD

Has John asked Jay Seculow to mention it on his radio show? Maybe send an email to Focus on the Family? I don't listen to much radio so I don't know what else is out there. How about emailing churches that have had John perform and see if they will put something in their bulletins or make some hando...
