The Petra Zone

A lot of people think BTTS was originally intended for Greg as lead but that was never the case. Bob(it was totally Bob's decision to let Greg go) knew even before Petra went out on tour for Beat The System that it would be Greg's final album with the band, the Back To The Street concept was not eve...

Something else that might be a factor is NSD was recorded over a 2 year period, several of the songs were originally meant for Washes Whiter Than but the record label didn't want to go that direction so they were put on the back burner. I remember hearing the The Coloring Song was one of the last so...

Wish we could but we had already planned out our trips for this year. I believe we are about 12 hours away.

I don't like "Go" (the song) and "Time keeps rolling" Everything else I like or love

Billy Smiley posted some info on their facebook page this morning saying they do have a new album scheduled for 2020 and plan on 30+ tour dates for this year. John posted something around Christmas when he was showcasing "Go" and said he is open for 60+ dates for 2020 with a mixture of Sinners/Saint...

Bob really needs to see that there could be some type of fan interest in order to get involved. As far as I know, the "revival" projects have basically been financial flops, so Bob won't do it unless he's convinced he won't lose money. Are you talking about the Revival album back in 2001? If so yea...

I saw the same post on Facebook and my thinking at the time was him remastering all the Petra videos he has produced which range from the On Fire! Videos all the way up to the WUC videos and putting them all on one DVD which in my opinion would be awesome. I will say that this concert in Missouri is...

That famous "Steve Clark Crunch" is gone on Pour Some Sugar On Me

That's because Steve Clark is no longer among the living.

Yep sad day when he passed. EVH says no one had tone like Steve and knew what to do with it.

Fascinating stuff. I find it funny that bass players are relatively cheap since it's a common trope that bass players get no respect . On a related note, I read recently about how Def Leppard had a deal where Capitol Records owned exclusive rights to distribute Def Leppard's catalog, but they could...

He has never sounded better. THAT VOICE IS TIMELESS!!!

Greg X is a totally underrated singer, I can't work out why he wasn't a house hold name. He probably should have taken the secular path in the 80's for a bit just to get some exposure. He would have been too old to break in the secular market. But, when he lived in Florida, he hooked up with a guit...

I've never seen a band come up with so many different names for what we were told originally was simply CPR, and we were told it could mean whatever we wanted it to mean. Now it's back to Classic Petra "Revival?" :roll: I don't know why they haven't just called themselves "classic petra". Maybe the...

If John or Bob was there I would be interested.

I really like it; it is different sounding from their previous stuff. It has a real cool groove, and the guitar work is dirty & dark.

The left has a propensity to give symbolism over substance. And their symbolism is done right evil and ungodly. Very civil there, Exe... If it goes against the Word of God then it is evil & ungodly; 99% what the left pushes falls into that catagory and goes directly against what the Bible teaches. ...
