Re: Petra live in Rhode Island 1991

Wow!! This the best I have heard them on any of the 1991 concert clips out there. They are tight! John's voice is intact, just like the records! This also has the least hiss from all the live clips I have seen from this era. The only bummer is there are some songs missing from this tour set list, th...

Revival mix

Oh how I hate the mix on this album. Guitar is buried, solos a cut on fade outs and Johns highest pitched vocals are hidden like its a bad thing. Uff!

Power Praise Block and Super Rock Block

Does anybody know if Bob played the updated Rhythm guitar and Solos on these Medleys: "Power Praise Block" and "Super Rock Block" that Star Song released in the 90's? I know the "new" drums sounds, sound processed, not "live", and there are even new, stronger bass lines, but the "new" guitar parts i...

Re: Best John Schlitt performance on record.

I hate the drum sounds on TMW, PP1, UP and BB. The drum sounds on BTTS and ND are acceptable. The drums sounds on PP2, GF and DT are great and natural sounding specially in the jam at the end of the Medley of PP2. I can't understand why the Elefantes could not keep it consistent and natural. If only...

Best John Schlitt performance on record.

I was listening to Wake Up Call and John really sings his guts out on this one. My favorite and best Petra record ever. I hope they do something like this if they record again. Still sounds fresh 22 years later.

Re: Stryper & Petra concert

Many people have been posting on facebook requests for a Stryper/Petra full U.S. tour. Sounds plausible. Any possibility this could happen? Any thoughts, Sue, Brent??

Re: THEY OWNED THE STAGE!!

I know for a fact that John or PETRA for that matter don't always get the best in ear or monitor mix playing live, which is not John's fault. Any singer that can not hear himself will have trouble handling power, projection and modulation, all of which help hitting the right notes. At the Illinois S...

Re: DREAM TEAM REUNION ANNOUNCED...you read correctly

That was good, but a shame and insult to have to cut the song short when other people got a chance to play 2 to 3 songs. Also to add insult the photo they used at the beginning was from the God Fixatiion era I think, which these organizers did not do their homework. I also saw the video posted here ...

Re: DREAM TEAM REUNION ANNOUNCED...you read correctly

What i meant was that Petra said several times through Facebook that an official announcement would be made soon from the Petra camp, but never happened.

Everything has been canceled, right? We are almost there for the show in January and no official announcement yet.

Re: DREAM TEAM REUNION ANNOUNCED...you read correctly

Sue. Do you think they can perform a Medley instead? That makes more sense due to the time constraints. Medleys have become a trademark of sorts for Petra and actually expected. Can you please suggest this to John? Thanks and God bless!

Re: Petra at Illinois State Fair

Can Sue give us some clue if John and Bob have and appetite for a Kickstarter project for Petra? Why cant we ask. Several of us have access to them even directly or through email. Like I said before if John did it twice on his own, it will be much easier for Petra to pull off? Come on already PETRA!

Re: Petra at Illinois State Fair

Three questions: 1. So, does this mean that John Lawry will be with them on the occassional show about once a month from now on? 2. Also, how they are managing to get Christian al the way from Argentina for one show at a time. That solunds expensive and also there are visa issues. Don't get me wrong...
