My Dad was going to see them in concert, as they opened for Metallica. The tour began on the East Cost, and moved westward. Once they reached Seattle, Queensryce stopped touring and Faith No More took their spot. talk about a fail. My Dad loved Metallica because it was their Kill Em All tour. Yet, he always regrets never being able to see the 'Ryche.
I agree with Chris Degarmo should collaborate with Geoff Tate at least as a song writer.He might not want to travel anymore ,but who knows. Unless theres a unspoken reason for Chris leaving.
Chris DeGarmo should collaborate with Geoff Tate again. The songs and albums after his departure are sadly missing his input. This one is f***king awesome!
Well this is gonna really show my age :-).. I've seen QR live 19 times starting way back in 1985 when they open for KISS! Blew KISS off the stage my opinion...Anyways then twice in 86 for R4O in which the second show they headlined!! Let me tell you that's when Geoff Tate was at his best..fucking incredible....!Then 89,91,94,97 and the list goes on..Rage for Order tour was my favorite...Two hours plus....yahoo....!
2:31 epic face melter face!! I can't believe how awesome these guys are!! I just wish I could have seen them back in the day. I will be seeing them this august though!
Saw them open for Metallica in 89'....one of he best shows ever for me. Since then I have tried to master every song on guitar....consumed by the music writing.
This is what Wikipedia says about chris Da Garmo..."DeGarmo currently lives in the Seattle area with his wife and children, and works full time as a professional pilot. He holds an Airline Transport Pilot certificate, Hawker (HS125), IA-Jet and Learjet 45 type ratings from the FAA"....Nothing wrong with that but you would think being such a great musician he would be totally emersed in music. Oh well, as long as he is happy.
Go Ryche! I saw them in Stuttgart Germany in June 2009 at a small venue called LKA Disco! They invited us backstage/upstairs afterwards and were really cool to us all! Aefa their #1 German fan was funny touring around Europe following them in her little hatchback! I still think the Operation Mindcrime album is their best! Keep on rocking!
Only 15, but i love this band, love this song and Geoff Tate, is absolutely amazing...i wanna have a voice like his when i grow up! Probably not gonna happen though!
@SuperPianoman1234 you're a lucky guy just to have the taste and the intellect required to appreciate music like this. There is only one Geoff Tate and, don't get me wrong, it's better if it stays that way :P But, you got to feel unique even as a Ryche fan, believe me. If you're 15 and you're already "matured" enough to like a song like "The Mission", you, sir, are in for a good life. Go get 'em, kid. :)
@Stellarmasterelite Just wish i was alive when they brought out albums like The Promised Land and Operation Mindcrime...would've loved to have seen them in their prime :(
@Stellarmasterelite Dude that was just great what you said to Pianoman, and I for One would like to Commend you for it !!! Considder yourself Commended sir !!! Queensryche Is live art at it's best just too bad that someone can't revive that type of show and also make it affordable for all to see like the Day's past
(didn't want to say the Olden days) Good Listening My friend !!!
Queensryche is incredible...I remember this tour...I went on back to back nights in Sacramento and San Francisco (had backstage passes in Sac)...amazing shows and huge electricity from the crowds...both were sold out shows...thanks for sharing.
This guys f.....g rock. Going to see them in October here in KC. Wish Chris would rejoin the band and do another Operation LIVECRIME show. Best band in the business far as I'm concerned. Geoff has an incredible voice still after all these years.

Call me guilty to air guitaring, air drumming, and trying to sing anything like Geoff to this song. Thank You Queensryche for this album IT STILL KICKS ASS AT 20 YEARS!
@superjamesbros2 I can't stop loving this - album/video/concerts, Queensryche has moved me since Operation Mindcrime came out 22 years ago,,,, I JUST CAN"T STOP LOVING IT! It IS ONE OF THE GREATEST METAL ALBUMS OF ALL TIME!!!!!
So much talent, so much POWER! Still ROCKING!!! The Ryche!
What more can we say? So GOOD, SO AMAZING! So much TALENT! I was at this show, the next night, in Kalamzoo, Mi. It has been nearly 20 years and still this album / videos - - Video Mindcrime & Operation Livecrime ARE STILL my favorite of all time! Even now when I watch this video I find myself sitting here HOLDING my breath! AMAZING - STILL AMAZING! - "The Ryche"!
What a great concert that was...Detroit! WOW,....Empire, then the entire Operation Mindcrime album.....didn't get much better than that. Maybe my favorite concert I ever attended.
QR at the height of their brilliance! No one will EVER come along and replace these guys and their utterly amazing songs, lyrics, melodies and musicianship! Their music still stands up over 20 years later and trumps 99.9% of today's popular music.
not true it was metallica ..and justice for all tour., and queensryche operration mindcrime. opining up in seattle i was there. 1988
