Re: What About Bob?

Bob is credited as having played both the guitar solo & the slide guitar solo on the new version of "Beyond Belief" by The Union of Sinners & Saints. Bob will also be performing with Petra for their one show (so far) this year on July 23rd in Elizabethtown, Kentucky.

TUOSS Lyrics

“Rise Up” Written by Billy Smiley and Jason Fowler Let the light shine on my face as we rise up to a brand new day. I can see clearly there is hope. There is hope. It’s been a mystery to me where I am and where I’ll be. The day you opened up my eyes. I’m alive. (Chorus) Rise up, and rise up again. ...

Re: John's new band, and new record.

Found this on Billy's Facebook. It's not the whole set list...but hey it's something. Would love to know what the second half of this looked like. This excerpt is taken from their Facebook page. "...they will perform many #1 songs like Beyond Belief, Independence Day, The Coloring Song, The River W...

That secret dies with us, dihigo. But if I can get more non-Schlitty ancient band photos, I could conceivably do more.
Personally, I'd rather see an album cover on the front than a bunch of hairy dudes. I'm just sayin'...

Re: Schlitt Happens Shirt!

Re: Greg X Volz New Website & Possible Classic Petra Revamp.

Other possible band names (if Classic Petra cannot be used): Pieces of Petra, III (or IV) Guys from Petra, Xavier, and finally...Greg X. Volz.

Oh, no way - not even close!
To each his (her) own. Hey, don't get me wrong. I'm glad to have something new by John!

Re: Greg X Volz New Website & Possible Classic Petra Revamp.

I really don't see how they could call themselves "Petra" without some involvement from Bob Hartman. Even during the "dark ages" of Petra following Bob's semi-retirement, he was still actively writing and playing in the studio, so it was still legitimately Petra. I believe the business arrangement ...

Re: John's new band, and new record.

Is it just me, or is The Union of Sinners & Saints really set on "unfurling banners"? Both "Brother to Brother" and "Independence Day" use that same reference. :lol:

Re: Greg X Volz New Website & Possible Classic Petra Revamp.

Its probably just me but I find it strange that after being virtually silent for so long Greg's website is finally updated along with his blog post announcing to the world the possibility of a "Classic Petra" regrouping without Bob and possibly with Ronny Cates all within a few days of John releasi...

Re: Greg X Volz New Website & Possible Classic Petra Revamp.

Wow! I noticed a couple of weeks back, Greg's old (crappy) website had finally expired. I was under the impression that Greg was finally hanging his hat. This new website gives hope to those, like me, who were eagerly anticipating a promised Back to the Rock follow up. As far as the open slot for gu...

Re: John's new band, and new record.

Does anyone have the lyrics of the songs, please! I've listened to the album about a dozen times now, and I must say, I miss Bob Hartman's hard hitting Bible based lyrics. While "Beyond Belief" has now appeared on 4 albums (including the widely panned Double Take ), hearing this updated version fee...
