The Petra Zone

My interview with Petra is now posted:

It was a pleasure to conduct. Though I'm a huge fan, I still went at them with some serious questions. Is the band still relevant? Are they even a band anymore? Time was short so I couldn't go into the detail I would've liked, but it was still one of my GMA highlights.

I hear Bob and John say some things here that I've never heard them mention before.

Read on to find out what the most honored band in Christian rock has to say about where they've been, where they are, and where they're going.

Great job, man! I've posted a blurb about it on the front page of the Guide.

Good article. I hope they're around for a 40th anniversary too.

VERY nice.

I'll put a mention and a link to it in the next newsletter.

Good job Michael. It was a much better interview than some i have seen with the band. Good questions that allowed a unique glimpse....

Good job. The humor captured was excellent. I can hear them speaking it.

WOW, I REALLY REALLY LOVED TO READ BOB HARTMAN`S THOUGHTS. I LOVED THAT HE SOUNDS POSITIVE, DON`T KNOW, I CAN FEEL HIM POSITIVE.

Wow, Mike. What an awesome opportunity to talk with these guys!! You did a super job with the questions, and their responses were very interesting.

From the sound of it, they seem to be striving for consistency, which is something they have lacked for a long time... with regards to band lineups.

It also sounds like they'll be around for quite a while yet putting out more great music. I can't wait for another fresh CD.

I'm glad you caught that. There definitely was a lot of joking going on there and they cracked me up a few times.
