Geoff Tate to Rocklahoma, "You Guys Suck"

That whole video looks very awkward. Seeing how the whole thing took them all of 10 minutes to assemble, shoot and post the video they could have done it again without Glen sitting there in the middle. Instead they chose to go with the worst edits possible.

Good job, Geoff.

Ads in my area for his upcoming concert are now being adverstied as Geoff Tate, the voice of Queensryche, no longer just Geoff Tate and thankfully not Geoff Tate's Queensryche.

I love this Youtube comment :

Geoff, you have given me hope. After I got fired from my job at Subway, I found a bunch of unemployed friends to help me start a new restaurant called "Subway." We serve all the same subs as Subway, except the ingredients we use are old and stale.

Weird video. As MG71 said, super awkward. Also, does JEE-OFF wear eyeliner 24-7?

QUEENSRŸCHE singer Geoff Tate has released brand newmerchandise supporting the 25th anniversary the band's classic "Operation: Mindcrime" album. Check it out in Geoff's online store.

Tate's newly assembled version of QUEENSRŸCHE — featuring bassist Rudy Sarzo (OZZY OSBOURNE, QUIET RIOT, WHITESNAKE, DIO), drummer Bobby Blotzer (RATT), guitarist Kelly Gray (MYTH) and keyboardist Randy Gane (MYTH) — will hit the road next year to celebrate the 25th anniversary of "Operation: Mindcrime".

"It's great to be performing with all of these guys who have been true friends for years," commented Geoff. "Kelly, Randy and I formed MYTH more than 30 years ago and I've known Rudy and Bobby for several years as well. I think we are all inspired by the collaboration and couldn't be more excited to bring it to our fans next year."

The performance of "Operation: Mindcrime" next spring will cover all fifteen songs from the album including such fan favorites as "Revolution Calling", "Operation: Mindcrime", "I Don't Believe In Love" and the closing track, "Eyes Of A Stranger". It will also feature other selections from the QUEENSRŸCHE catalog, including songs from "Operation: Mindcrime II".

Former MEGADETH and KING DIAMOND guitarist Glen Drover, who was originally supposed to tour with the Geoff Tate-fronted version of QUEENSRŸCHE, announced his departure from the group last month before playing a single show with the band.

Tate, who was fired from QUEENSRŸCHE in June after fronting the group for three decades, recently sought to prevent his former bandmates from touring and operating under the QUEENSRŸCHE name without him. While ruling against Tate, the presiding judge determined that there was no legal hurdle in Tate also using the name with an all-new lineup of musicians. "I don't see any reason that Mr. Tate can't have the benefit, if he gets other members, of whatever name he uses of using the brand," Superior Court Judge Carol A. Schapira said during the July 13 court hearing. "I think [doing that would be] inherently confusing, although I'm sure the market can get these things sorted out," she added.

That green one is kind of cool...

I thought the same. I'm like "Damn, I haven't had a Queensryche shirt since high school, but that green one is pretty bad-ass."

The "Dis-obey" shirt sucks because it should be one word! Disobey.

I'm partially colorblind, but that "green" one looks weird to me. The green should "pop" more. In fact, it really doesn't look green to me at all.

Sure, but I think it's hyphenated for emphasis.

Agree... but I'm not spending any money on Tate merch at this point.....

Okay. But does anyone even say that word on the album?

I haven't heard it in a coon's age, I'm not even sure.

I'm slow so bear with me. The Geoff disses only doing the past songs and wants to mostly do newer stuff live but is now doing the whole OM album? I can't follow this soap opera.

I think he's more or less referring the first three albums, more the first two, when he says that stuff.

Correct. He also doesn't want to be a "nostalgia" act and says he wrote 81% of Queensryche's songs....

Joker if you guy a shirt from Tate some of that money would also go to the other 3 guys, I am not sure if Chris DeGarmo gets a piece of the action or not, but the other three certainly would, since all 4 of them still jointly own the name.

Good point. I think the answer is no.

Technically, you would be correct - the profits would be 75% to the other three and 25% to Tate.... now whether or not Tate is doing what he is supposed to is the question.... and i imagine it will come up if the case goes to court. DeGarmo was bought out of the corporation years ago, so he wouldn't get current profits, just songwriting/album royalities
