PETRA - BACKSTAGE PASS

How much Petra-fied fun can you have in 60 minutes? How about five incredible new music videos, exclusive on-the-road interviews with all five band members, and a first-hand look at the new Unseen Power World Concert Tour - complete with the most awesome Petra stage set-up ever? Backstage Pass is a one-of-a-kind video that, as a Petra fan, you must not miss!

Ever wonder what it would be like to ride the bus with Petra? How about what it's like in the studio during a recording session? And the moments before a concert ... backstage? Here's your chance to meet Christian music's #1 rock band like never before.
Visit a grocery store with their powerhouse lead vocalist John Schlitt. Stand backstage with Bob Hartman before a sold-out concert in Canada. Talk with bass player Ronny Cates in his hotel room the afternoon before a concert. Listen as keyboardist John Lawry describes how he writes songs. Discover just what it is that Louie Weaver puts on his drum sticks so they won't fly out of his hands when he plays!
Of course, any Petra fan knows you couldn't spend any amount of time with the band - on or off stage - and not hear them share about the Lord. Backstage Pass is an intimate look at Petra's focus on ministry, and how what they do on stage reflects their spiritual commitment.
Backstage Pass isn't all talk though. You'll see portions of the new Unseen Power World Tour concert, featuring riveting performances of songs from their new Unseen Power album, and all on one of the most incredible concert stage set-ups you've ever seen. You'll also get an exclusive screening of brand new music videos from the band's Unseen Power project. The rocking "Who's On The Lord's Side", was created by the video production company of the National Football League's highlight films!
From New York to New Zealand. From South America to South Africa. From the nation of Canada to the island of Japan. Petra continues to lead the rock-and-roll charge against the world of darkness, taking the message of the Gospel to millions around the world
And now you are there with them. Backstage Pass. A video experience you will enjoy over and over again!
