| Parachute Band Hey all. Just wanted to start a new thread about this. Anybody like them? They are NZ's worship band. Its quite sad that their name aint nothing special

| I like a lot of their music, except they killed some of Ric Knotts song's when they did covers of them... grrr. Ric is a friend of mine, you might recognize his name from Maginify... yeah... well Parachute band did some of his/their songs, and totally changed them... grrr. oh well. They are very talented though

| Interesting thoughts I'm reading here. I had a differant opinion but now I work for Parachute Music so I'm seeing behind the scenes. If Richard didn't agree with how the songs were done, they wouldn't have been published |

| You're probably right, but I still think Magnify are better. Especially Magnify live. I guess the Parachute Band are probably just aimed at a different audience. People who loved their music mostly still do - they're one of those "once a fan, almost always a fan" except in my place where I'm incredibly picky about my music and went off 'em after Amazing...the new Rapture Ruckus cd, on the other hand, is definitely something very special. Maybe it's just certain bands cater to a certain audience and that certain audience follows them, you know what I mean? I didn't do a great job of explaining that :S

| I just know Vernon Katipo (or Katipa, I forget) is a very good bassist. I'm not much of a fan of the Parachute band. |

| Magnify rock way harder than Parachute band, and Ric's vocals are far better too I agree with Erika; they're expecially better live, they take it to a whole new level on stage. |
