I use to play in a band with John before he started Skillet (a band called Seraph). We've been friends since we were teenagers, and let me tell you...he's still the same crazy guy. What you see is what you get. He's always been this way...even when we weren't famous. The only difference now is that he has tattoos. When he lived at home with his Dad, he wasn't allowed to look like a rockstar...lol.
I just gained that much more respect for John. I always knew that he was involved in a few bits and pieces in Skillet (song-writing, technical stuff etc etc) but I honestly never knew that he was involved in EVERYTHING from start to finish. Not an easy task! Hats down to you, Johnny!!
This is why i love SKILLET sooooo much. As Korey said: John loves people and music, he gives us a reason to believe again only with their music. He gives me hope to not give up! No matter what happens in your live, God is there for you, so you know, that you´re never alone! I have so much respect for the things John does and the way he spreads the word of God only with his music! All the best from Germany, hope to see you soon!
Thank you for what you do Skillet. I have listened to you for years and have introduced you to my son and now he loves you guys. You have no idea what your music has done for and many to me. God watch and protect, keep your hands over this band.
One of my favorite songs of yours is watching for comets, even though it can make me cry i still love it. Speaking of crying, crying doesnt show your weak, it shows youve been strong for too long
John you're such a ray of Sunshine in the grimest days ! He is positive and simple, in a good way I mean; He has a great personality but he isn't too complicated, nevertheless he is deep and fun! Wish I would ressemble him more! Cheers from Italy!
The fact that John starts his day with a Star Wars shirt and mug makes me so happy. I listened to early Skillet back when I played a lot of Star Wars games, to the point that the two have very strong associations in my brain. Just awesome! 🤟🔥⭐️🚀💫
I love your guys music, gets me through allot 😊, I loved hearing all your songs although you guys looked so sweaty and so tired at the end kinda made me feel bad. WINTER JAM Evansville Indiana 2018 😁
Hey Skillet, I just wanted to let you know that, Me and my Mum are touched by the reasons why you wrote Lucy and The last night. I personally would love to know why you wrote the overs. I would also like to say that if you were to come to England, We would definitely come and see you play. About that, Why don't you come to England? We are all nice here. I thought I should tell you that. Please reply, Raven prime ( Hyper Pan-Head ).
I just recently got really into your music and band and I love the band so much and a lot of my friends hate your music because it’s “rock” and I tell them that most if not all of the songs a Christian songs and that’s another reason why I love the band so much. But it’s kinda hard being 13 and being in love with Christian rock when everyone else is into rap about drugs and “hoes”. I get made fun of for it a lot but I’ve learned to live with it and let me be me! Love you guys! Your my world! 💕
That's sweet what Korey said about John about him being the brains behind Skillet. But, she's been an equal, driving force in the band for roughly 20 years because she started co-writing songs for them on their second album "Hey You, I Love Your Soul."
Also I almost high fives both you and Korey at your concert I recorded but my phone only picked up your fire explosions😭 plus I got a t-shirt, pick for my guitars and I also got a picture from y'all
Me and my brother's are Lutheran, and we love to listen to rock. All of your albums are awesome. Although we understand what we learn at church. We enjoy the music. It makes sense and it's catchy. You probably will see people still listening to this year's from now, and that makes total sense.
My name is Chance and I'm 8 years old. I wanted to tell you I love you all and your videos. You are an inspiration. I pray I get to see you all in Huntsville this May!
