The Petra Zone

How far did you go? How long did it take?

I'll start....I drove from Grand Raggedy to Indianapolis to see Petra.

It was as far and as long to drive from GR around Lake Mich to see John in Sheboygan, WI.

I traveled to the Caribbean to see John... Hopped a plane, flew to Florida and got on a cruise ship. Of course, he wasn't the only reason I went, I love the Caribbean. Think palm trees, sun and a sky where you can actually see the stars at night. L.A. isn't too good a place for that, at least not within the city limits...It's better away from the city.

I also hopped a plane in the summer of 2003 and flew to Wisconsin. So I've made some pretty lengthy trips. That was a lot of fun, it was worth it to meet all the cool people I met, even though I love John to death.

I WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I traveled all the way from `the north of M�xico and crossed all over the USA to see john...TWICE muahahahahaha


I traveled in car 8 hours to phoenix the first time and took two planes, two hours each and on my second trip i drove 5 hours to tucson and took two planes of two hours each to milwaukee both times MUAHAHAHAHA and then one hour to sheboygan ,)

Well, you and I would be pretty close in the number of miles we've traveled probably...It's a long way from California to Florida and then from Florida to St. Thomas, Jamaica and so on. But yeah, it's a long way from Mexico to Wisconsin. My favorite tropical places are Hawaii,
St. Thomas, the Cayman Islands and Key West. I'd love to go again some time, especially to Hawaii.

in 99 i traveled 6 hours to see Petra in S.O.S DA VIDA GOSPEL FESTIVAL in Sao Paulo, Brazil, but this concert was cancelled.

I remember 1 year a friend and I drove to 6 different places in 1 year to see Petra. I live in Michigan and I drove to the Creation Festival in PA. to see them.

I traveled to the Caribbean to see John... Hopped a plane, flew to Florida and got on a cruise ship. Of course, he wasn't the only reason I went, I love the Caribbean. Think palm trees, sun and a sky where you can actually see the stars at night. L.A. isn't too good a place for that, at least not within the city limits...It's better away from the city.

That is SOOO not fair, Shell!

My family drove from L.A. to Florida to see Petra. To quote the dude in Backstage Pass, "I've seen 'em all around. I'm Mr. Petra!" Yup, that would be me...except I'm not a mister...so I guess I would be Ms. Petra.

Yeah, that was back in the early 90s. I was young and impulsive.

It was a lot of fun, but the group that put those cruises together isn't around anymore, and it got to be too expensive anyway.

The closest I ever came to seeing Petra was when I saw TAIT at ShoutFest back in 2003....that was a little over an hour away..
