Beat the System- The album

Listened to it all the way through after many years. Although it definitely has a "techno-pop" 1980's vibe, I find the sings are strong musically and lyrically. BTS & CB are lyrically as meaningful today as 1984. Even Witch hunt, the most "unique song", has a great hook. With not a lot of re-work, t...

Winter jam

Just a query.

I looked at the line-up and it seemed like quite the show.

BUT, I see the show starts at 7:00 with 5-6 acts planned, plus a speaker.

Has anyone gone? Do the Newsboys take more than an hour or is it a quick "best of" performance?


Too far to go, just made me wonder.

Re: New John Schlitt Single

It fluctuates widely, as the payment is based on several factors, but typically Apple pays about half a cent per play, compared to Spotify's quarter of a cent per play. That may or may not sound good to you. I don't know if the rates are different for artists with more listeners. Which is why a goo...

Left Behind Series

More of a new topic maker. I read through the whole series in about 6 months recently. Although it definitely prescribes to the Hal Lindsay school of thought, I found it entertaining and a lot to think about and presented a useful scenario what the end times could be like. The last couple (or 3 ) bo...

Re: Oz Fox

From these Facebook posts, looks like he's out of the hospital and able to get around.

I have no idea otherwise.

Re: Favorite Petra concert

Saw them on MPTY, BTTS, BB, GF and Farewell. BB for sure. They played the BB Film before the show and then went into it. I went by myself at the last minute, but got a great seat close to the front of the theatre. BTTS was a great arena show with a really small crowd. The poor promoter lost everythi...

Nothing from Back to the Street either.
By BB Tour, I think they pretty much dropped those songs off the set-list, but I I could be corrected.

Re: Favourite Petra Album 1990-2003

Although the production of WUC was more "pure", the songs are among me least favourite with a couple of exceptions. Even GF has more songs for me to enjoy, even though I wasn't a fan of the sound. Currently, UP is among my fav's. Yah, it's overproduced is a way, and Hand on my Heart is a bit cheesy,...

Re: Petra's First Music Video

Is that John Slick on keys? It's been awhile since I've looked at a picture but it didn't seem to click.

Re: II Guys From Petra with others 07/06/2018

I listened to this last night and had it cranked.

It was a good performance by all. I'm struck how good of shape Bob is in. Was upset it got over so fast!

Re: CPR at Creation East

just out of curiosity, was this there whole set list? I know everyone plays abbreviated sets at the festivals.

Re: CPR

At this stage in Bob’s life, why does he need BTTR 2, J&H 2, or anything else Petra related. He’s done everything you can do up in Christian music, and has a well deserved retirement in front of him. Look at the lyrics to Godpleaser. Based on the lives his music has changed, his Father will say “we...

Spotify..This is Petra

So, I'm creating a playlist on Spotify for the band. I'm thinking of not including the live albums, thoughts? Right now I included all songs from all original albums. In your opinion, should I narrow it down to a handful per album or go with it all? I'll share it to the greater community (likely alr...
