Re: DREAM TEAM REUNION ANNOUNCED...you read correctly
What i meant was that Petra said several times through Facebook that an official announcement would be made soon from the Petra camp, but never happened.

So why would that mean things are cancelled? You're jumping to conclusions and speculating.fcollazo wrote:What i meant was that Petra said several times through Facebook that an official announcement would be made soon from the Petra camp, but never happened.
Like Brent said, there's an official facebook page for the event, you can follow Stephen Yake on facebook and see what he posts about the event (since he will be the video director) and it's been confirmed from various sides (read this thread) that Petra will be there to play one song, presumably I Am On The Rock.

Re: DREAM TEAM REUNION ANNOUNCED...you read correctly
It's not cancelled... here's the official press release from the folks who are promoting the event:
-----
“We Will Stand”
Celebrating 40 Years of Contemporary Christian Music
On January 21, 2015 more than 30 of the greatest artists in the history of Contemporary Christian Music will stand united on one stage and deliver a once in a lifetime performance of the top contemporary Christian songs ever recorded.
You are invited to join Michael W. Smith, Mercy Me, Petra, Newsboys, The Imperials, 4Him, Amy Grant, Steve Green, Sandi Patty, Russ Taff, Steven Curtis Chapman, Mark Schultz, Kari Jobe, Laura Story, Phillips Craig & Dean, and many other of your favorite artists for an evening of great CCM songs that continue to impact millions of lives around the world.
This event will be streamed live via the Internet courtesy of LifeWay Christian Resources, as well as recorded for television and radio broadcast at a later time. It will be available on DVD and CD March 15, 2015.
Proceeds from this event will benefit the Gospel Music Trust Fund, Show Hope, Voice of the Martyrs, and other well respected ministries.
This truly will be “the greatest night in the history of Contemporary Christian Music!” Don’t miss it.

This is an invitation-only event because they're looking to use it as a fundraiser, not a public event. But on the positive side - EVERYONE can watch with live streaming. I'm told that the streaming will fully be capable of handling all the fans that are sure to be watching.
That being said, there will be ONE song by Petra, and not exactly a full song either. But with so many artists you can see why things are being cut short. I'm sure this is not quite what Petheads were expecting.... but then again - everyone will be able to see it happening LIVE.

Re: DREAM TEAM REUNION ANNOUNCED...you read correctly
This is what I was expecting; yeah we could wish for more, but it is what it is. The thing that I would be interested in is if this could set a spark to something greater for Petra. I'm not counting on it just praying and hoping for something more.

Nope. Taylor Swift was the only one to scan 1M units...period. Frozen sold over 1M, but that was a total of 2013 and 2014 sales.
Here is a good little 3 quarter break down:

So the "Dream Team" will reunite on stage to sing part of a song. Seems a bit pointless.sue d. wrote:...there will be ONE song by Petra, and not exactly a full song either.

Re: DREAM TEAM REUNION ANNOUNCED...you read correctly
Ya mountain man I feel the same way I contacted the guys and told them not to do it. We would prefer nothing over something because we are ridiculous fans that only want it our way... I gave them a plan and they are considering not doing the half song because it is pointless and they see that now. Seriously people I'll take what I can get and enjoy it and maybe the point is to raise awareness or maybe some money for a good cause or maybe to work on relationships with each other, or maybe something entirely else. What I am confident is NOT the main reason is our lame opinions on the petra zone.

Re: DREAM TEAM REUNION ANNOUNCED...you read correctly
Why would they be considering not doing the half song? By now contracts have been signed and press releases have been sent out. They can't really back out now. And why should they?petranite wrote:Ya mountain man I feel the same way I contacted the guys and told them not to do it.

To petranite, they may not care about my "lame" opinion, but that's not going to stop me from expressing it.

Re: DREAM TEAM REUNION ANNOUNCED...you read correctly
I agree with you, but everyone has their own opinion; I just feel ANYONE that is a Petra fan should look at what the actual concept of this thing and be happy that Petra was actually sought out by CCM brass for this and will be given some type of due for what they have meant to CCM. There are some out there that if they can't have Petra in a certain way then they don't want anything to do with it; I say feel blessed we got what we got.petranite wrote:Ya mountain man I feel the same way I contacted the guys and told them not to do it.

That seems likely, but why not radio hits 1 or 2?

Re: DREAM TEAM REUNION ANNOUNCED...you read correctly
As far as I know, any rock songs from Petra were never radio hits on the bulk of CCM stations. They probably didn't get much airplay.
