Hard Rock
I heard that Petra was the first Christian group to be inducted into the Hard Rock Cafe...
But I was wondering which one? There's no Petra memorabilia on the website, or any other information.

Re: Hard Rock
I think it was somewhere in Texas. San Antonio maybe? But I don't think anything is up anymore.

Re: Hard Rock
They use to have one of Bob's guitars in the Dallas HRC but since they moved to a new location in Victory Park I'm not sure if it is there or not.

Re: Hard Rock
I saw Lichen's guitar in the Chicago Hard Rock.... back in 2000 or so. I also have a photo of Lawry's keytar (or however you spell it) hanging on a wall, along with a big collage of Petra pix).

Re: Hard Rock
I know that Louie has a signed snare head in one of them I wanna say the one in Nashville. And Pete Orta has a guitar I believe in the same HRC. I have pictures of both I'll have to find them.

Re: Hard Rock
The thing about having a Pete Orta guitar at the Hard Rock is that they had to know he was not the legacy guitarist. Let's say that someone admiring the collection had even heard of Petra, the likelihood that they would know Orta is slim to none. Woulda shoulda coulda

Re: Hard Rock
Pops the question, which one is the real Petra band. For me there is always only one real PETRA-Band, thats the existing. If you book PETRA, you get the guys, that are in the Band at the time of the concert. Thats the problem of bands where members change often...brent wrote:Too bad the real Petra band wasn't there.p-freak wrote:

today we get classic PETRA - a band that recorded one album together and put an amazing - and in my eyes outstanding - live recording on the market. But they sell ClassicPetra with a two-out-of-34-years lineup...sorry folks...
Bands change...and it does´n matter. As long as the music lives on...

Re: Hard Rock
Okay, now I'm wondering something else....
They said that Petra was the first Christian band to be inducted, does that mean there are other Christian bands there now?

Re: Hard Rock
I respect that point of view, but the band is not the music. The band is the band. The music is a product of the band. When the band ceases to be the band, and is just the singer with 98% new guys that rotate through, that is a singer with a back-up group IMO, because it is the group that makes the music change from what I love(d) about the band to begin with. Clear as mud? So, Bob, the key component, the driving force, PETRA himself, left and that did it for me. I heard those other incarnations and the chops were not there, the spirit of the old music was not captured, and John said that himself. He could not understand why the new guys would not play Bobs parts and wanted to change things, failing to capture the elements that made the songs magical.DeSoto wrote:Pops the question, which one is the real Petra band.

I have met all of those cats in the pic and they are all nice guys (well, all but one was super nice and realized the legacy they had stewardship of, and how lucky they were to be riding on it's coat tails). I think the big reason why one of them did not work is because of his lack of skill and ability to play the music as intended. That said, they have all done good things after Petra, where they fit best.
Just my sideline opinion.

Exactly. That is what John liked about AndBand. We actually strived to bring back those parts and recapture that feel. That is also what fans who saw us loved about AndBand.
I have seen the pictured incarnation of Petra several times, and watched video concerts of them. There was too much trying to change what Petra was. As it's already been documented several times, they failed to capture new fans with that sound, and alienated a huge part of their fan base as well. Even though I appreciate the music that was put out by Petra during that time, I still feel that as a whole it missed the mark of what the band was.
