Awesome! If only the sound quality was better.

1. Bob's guitar tone is bad dirty, man that was great
2. Bob can still play the guitar; his solo was one of a kind
3. Christan is really, really great.

I must say that a lot of folks have poo pooed seeing them live, and I think it's just plain silliness. It really is an awesome time. They are so tight, and Bob is so into it. I can't wait for what's to come!

I know what you mean; They are spot on. Unlike when he was on stage with Classic Petra Bob actually looks like he is having fun.

That's funny, I remember seeing CP for the first time back in 2011 and thinking Bob looks like he's having more fun than he's had in 15 years!

The 2 shows I saw Classic Petra were good shows, but Bob did little to move from his spot and at the last show(April 2012) Bob did not talk at all and never even really acknowledged anyone in the band or really even that he was there. I remember talking with him at the meet/greet after the show all he wanted to talk about was the JAH album and how he loved the sound & vibe of the album.

Me too, zman. I saw Bob on the Music Boat last November. Both on stage and off he looked like he was having a great time. I saw the band several times eating dinner and he was laughing and having a good time with everybody--including Greg and Louie.

Ahh! Finally some live video footage that accurately relays how good the band actually sounds live. Nice job Christian, and rest of the band.
Thanks for putting that up.
