I just want to take a moment and Praise the Lord for Bob Hartman, John Schlitt and the rest of Petra. I had the most awesome privildge of promoting the Petra show this past evening and it was just incredible. Bob and John are two of the most humble Jesus loving guys and it is so refreshing to see these guys after all these years still loving what they do and loving people, they stayed tonight until every person got to meet them and get autographs, from the body of Christ in Tampa, Thank you Bob and John also to Greg and Paul, you guys are incredible, I've helped promote 5 Petra shows and have been to 17 at least that I can remember, and I truly beleive musically these guys are close to the best, I will hopefully post pictures soon, off to Winterhaven tommorow after teaching my Sunday School Class and Church.

And remember, "Life is a Mine field", I can't beleive they did some of that song tonight, it was awesome.

Good pics. Good review too. Ronny looks totally different without hair. Elo and I already had a fit over that, LOL.

RONNY WAS IN TAMPA!?!

:cry:

I have to say that he might have been my favorite. I LOVE watching that Unseen Power video and seeing how funny he was!

I said earlier that the current line up might be the strongest musically, but stage presence definately goes to Ronny Cates and John Lawrey.

If you want the pics, Sue, feel free to take them or point a link. I suppose they're copyrighted in theory, but they're officially open domain now. ;)

Glad you enjoyed it, guys.

I was in Florida that day with my family. It was a choice between Disney and Petra. We choose disney for the kids and the fact we had just come from the Franklin taping.

Mickey Mouse over Petra? I think you made the wrong choice.

I was overruled 5 to 1. Like I said we saw Petra 4 days earlier. I'll be in GA.

Another strand to be continued. . . will it grow or fall?

So what's this with Petra and bald bass players?? :lol: I wonder if Mark Kelly has been doing the same these days. (Apparently DeGroff ain't doin' it)
