Steven Yake produced a good chunk of Christian videos. He started in Tulsa and then moved to Nashville. He was originally affiliated with Willie George Ministries/Church on the Move IIRC.

Dan,

Thank you for capturing and sharing on youtube. I ordered the DVD also but it was great to see it now, as I was unable to last night.

Thanks again!
Phillip

Yes thank you Dan for posting this I was working and was unable to stream it.


Ronny just can't stay still and brought some his vibe & energy to it(especially his facebook postings on it). They all are looking very good for their age and they really seem to be happy and excited to be there. My promoter buddy was there last night and he said the whole show was really good and all the artists were really engaging and post show several artists were commenting about on how Petra looks like they have been together all these years and really haven't changed all that much. His impression was Petra really surprised a lot in a good way and had a lot of people talking.

The E-Bros brought a heavy slick production to the music of the WHSCL era, but behind all that you still had top notch players. That shows in this video. Bob is solid.

Bob IS great. The amount of talent on that stage was just sick. Sick is good for those outside of the US.

It was good to see these guys on stage together again, and there were quite a few people I liked back in the day participating in this too. And yes, Bob is and always has been a great guitarist. 8) I do want to invest in the DVD eventually.

Why is it surprising? They toured together for years and were a close knit group of guys. It's like riding a bike. You don't forget some things.

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 trouble hitting the high points now, when just in '13 he was doing the highest notes in his whole career (on his Christmas album). Seems odd to me.

My wife said John sounded bad too... I had to look past it, the overall performance was good.

I just realized John is 65 in 10 days.... I would like to see anyone try to hit those rock notes at his age.

John still sounded better than 2005 in the farewell DVD - he seemed to have no voice for that concert which was a shame :(

John is still an excellent performer and he can hit it all as we hear on his CDs and several live performances. The only thing is that the last 10 years or so I believe John's performance fluctuates because of the circumstances. Stuff like temperature and humidity in the room are affecting him much more than they used to. My guess would be that the air conditions in the hall were just bad for his voice.

Or maybe he just forgot his coke before his performance... or they gave him Pepsi. :lol:
