I don't know about the rest of you, but my community of peers either loves Petra or wouldn't walk across the street to see them play.
And did I mention the bad vibes are all coming from people who DO LISTEN to Christian music?
My kids are teenagers, and I have not found ANYONE in their social groups who will at least give JAH an objective listen. I realize this should be expected. But there are a lot of adult rockers (30 years +) out there I've talked to who have given me equally as cold responses.
Now, I have had some positive feedback from people who USED TO listen to Petra. Usually the response is, " Petra? Are they still together? I'll have to get the CD." But I have yet to find ANYONE in addition to myself who has actually purchased JAH or knew it existed.
Furthermore, after having been released for just a few weeks, JAH disappeared from the charts.
I am fed up with the lack of information out there. I am equally fed up with people having the wrong idea of who Petra is (thanks to Revival, Double Take and Petra Praise II, for the most part). Petra is my FAVORITE

Inpop needs to get their act together and PUBLICIZE. And it wouldn't hurt to improve Petra's image a little. Some will disagree with me on this, but John needs to go on a diet and Bob should lose some gray. Those undertones send off the message that Petra is OLD and DATED. Petra has a fresh new rocker CD, and people need to be enticed to listen to it. It's like starting over, sort of.
