Is Petra done?
Re: Is Petra done?
All I am going to say is when drum machines and sequencers hit the scene, they were welcomed with open arms and few productions have happened since without some type of augmentation and/or replacement.

Re: Is Petra done?
Reminds me of the movie Rock Star starring Mark Walberg where the main character was hired to replace the lead singer and eventually realized that he was just a hired gun who would never have any say in what the band did.thunderecho wrote:Managing personalities is an unenviable task of a band leader. Band members can either buy-in to the vision or go do their own thing somewhere else. You have to check your ego at the door. My youngest brother missed an opportunity at mainstream success in a secular band. The band terminated his employment after several months of friction. His role in the band was made clear upfront. He deviated from his assigned duties and caused some issues. When he complained to me about what happened, I told him "the band didn't fire you, you fired yourself". The whole irony to this is my brother is an amazing player (he received complements from some great musicians) but is now having problems landing auditions. Is it really worth it to pour misery on the band and make things difficult if you don't like the direction or style of the band? My brother hasn't learned his lesson and developed a less tha stellar reputation. Sad, sad, sad.
