The Petra Zone

This guy was the Neil Peart of Christian music. He wrote, play the guitars and drums. We lost a great talent. Tourniquets first 3 albums were ahead of their time and still hold up.

I forsee Petra playing a more heavy setlist to please the Stryper audience. Petra fans wont care which songs that they play for this. I wouldnt. I just wish that this happened when both were in their prime. Although some would argue that Stryper is better now than in the 80's. Nonetheless, its gonna...

I have officially got tickets to see Rush in Dallas in May!!!!! Score!!!!!

Louie too?

Yea, seeing how Geddy is getting up in years I'm not surprised. But who cares!! I'm still a Rush nerd!!

Debuting on VH1. It is their best live record I g to date!!! Can't wait to pick this up just for the THREE drum solos!!!

I know that John has a new album out. But has there been any official talk of a new Petra album with all new music?

As a long time fan of DT, I agree about the lyrics. But like Rush, you have to see them live to "get" what they are all about. They don't just write "songs." They write compositions. But at the same time, they are not for everyone.

Just got it last week. Love, love, love it!!!! Even though Labrie stinks, he sounded better than I thought it would be.

You would really need to see it on imax. The sound was epic!!! Great mix and a great performance. The "movie" part I could've done without. Just seeing the concert footage wouldve been enough for me. I really enjoyed it though. The first song was Creeping Death which is one of my face.

Right!? I did go to see the Metallica film on Imax. As awesome as it was, it was still apples and oranges compared to DT.

I love this thing the more I hear it!!!!

I think it is very good. Mike Mancini is a beast!!!! The illumination theory is worth the price alone.

The new Dream theater self titled album is streaming. It is very good as usual. It sounds a bit compressed due to sound cloud. But other than that, incredible as you would come to expect!!

Brent, have you hear the new track yet?
