The Petra Zone

I have always found this kind of thing funny. Here we have a website (and others... www.av1611.org comes to mind) which bashes Christian music because it is worldly and "mimics" a secular medium (i.e. music) Why then, have these people chosen the internet to spread this stuff? I mean, there's more b...

Hey, gang. I don't know if anyone here was ever into Whitecross, but I have made a site that I am going to launch on April 9, 2004 as a tribute to the band after Rex Carroll left. The URL is www.whitecrossband.com I don't have a lot of info on the previous lineups but I am working on it. There reall...

Is it just me, or does anyone else think this track from Beat The System is brilliant? The veiled sarcasm, the lyrics....

The back masking was a nice touch too!

I picked this up from www.crossingmusic.com last week for about 5 bucks and it was quite good. I must say though, AND THIS IS NOT MEANT TO BE MEAN so please don't flame me, but what is up with Bob's hair on this DVD? I know it isn't "real" and hasn't been for quite some time, but surely he could get...

I had also heard that because of this lawsuit, KISS covered God Gave Rock and Roll... even though it was an Argent song, Petra covered it and Kiss recorded it as sort of a slap in the face, given that Petra "ripped off" one of their riffs. I always thought that given the number of bands and songs ou...

And what makes a great album is that it blows your socks off the first time you hear it, and then it gets better with repeated listenings. That's exactly it. I can remember getting On Fire for the first time and listening to it over and over again and getting more and more out of it the longer I li...

But when Brown Banister steped in and produced Wake-Up Call....I was floored. I woudn't ubject to another John and Dino production with Petra. But I would love to see Brown hit the producers chair again for a Petra album. 8) 8) 8) 8) Eeek. To me, this is where Petra started to slide a little. The W...

I found this on the net and it might put things into perspective as far as concert bookings and tours: When a band forms and starts to get paid, they will soon see that there are many expenses involved. Rehearsals, transportation, lodging, employees, etc... And before those things are paid the major...

Any idea if Petra's gonna release a DVD retrospective with all of their videos?

I am surprised a lot of bands don't do this. It's not like TV is showing old videos? Why not release them on a DVD?

Hey gang. I just found out the board moved - much nicer than the old one, I must say! I was just over at the Christian Metal Realm and there's a thread on the J&H CD. Lots of good things being said. http://pub137.ezboard.com/fthechristianmetalrealmfrm1.showMessage?topicID=10109.topic Does anyone kno...
