Very underrated song. I love this song - don't remember them doing this live when I saw them on the Empire tour. Who cares - great song & vid - thanks!!
@QnRyche perhaps it wasn't a cell phone - who cares? ah, you do! it all boils down to the fact that the vid has an unbearable quality and therefore it's obsolete.
i remember DeGarmo saying that the original song Queensryche developed for "The Adventures of Ford Fairlane" soundtrack was rejected. "it was in the typical queensryche vein - morose", he said. they then came up w/ this relatively bubbly song.
@scottw5150 hey now, i am 16 and dont listen to one thing new and everything old. i know how music is supposed to be played and this is it. fuck rap and new "rock bands"
According to Geoff, he talks to Chris a lot and he (Chris) is happy being a pilot and doesn't have any plans to rejoin QR. He hates touring, and that's the primary reason.
@PostalPaul1974 I saw the same tour with the same opening band in the south! We met Bass player Eddie after the show. Got his autograph on program! SCORE!
This is somewhat tragic. I think this was the end of an era, or sorts, in the music business. Around this time, 80's arena rock was being pushed aside for all that grunge crap coming from Seattle. And rock has never been the same, in my opinion.
Agreed. I think the early '90s marked the end of an era for most rock bands that got started in the '80s. When grunge came along, it wasn't just big-name arena rock bands that were being pushed aside, but arty, post-punk bands were being ignored also. What's sad is that grunge wasn't really a new sound, but an amalgamation of punk and hard rock, and the grunge bands all sounded the same. Nowadays, most people don't even listen to rock music. It's all about Lady Gaga and Beyonce now.
@rayjr62 "rock has never been the same" and that was a good thing! most bands by then had become stale, uncreative, and lame.
"crap"? i thought then, as i do now, that some of the best hard rock ive ever heard came from the grunge era. i will say only a very few bands were talented enough to produce timeless albums, but there were MANY more that had a few great songs, at least.
@rayjr62 Grunge crap? Fuck you, you fucking retarded bastard. "Grunge crap" saved music from countless glam metal bands. I have nothing against glam metal but there were just too many bands of the same genre.
I've been trying to remember who opened for them (I saw them in Springfield IL 11/18/91) and yes, it was Warrior Soul and yes, I remember them sucking pretty bad... the only thing I remember from their set was the lead singer leading the crowd in a chant of "Fuck Bush" during one of their songs.
i was at that concert... yes warrior soul did suck really bad. i've seen the ryche 3 times. Tate in these later years can't quite get the range he used to.
I don't understand all these comments about Warrior Soul sucking? I saw Warrior Soul open up for Queensryche back in 91' in Bangor Maine and they kicked ass. Maybe they sucked for those shows? I just know they were great when I saw them.
I love this song! If you haven't already done so, search for Queenstryche PL to see some documentary clips from QnRyche. This person has posted some excellent vintage stuff!
Sure, Ill comment! Great freakin footage. Love that old stuff. Listen to Geoff!! Wow, virtually effortless back then. Miss the old days. Mindcrime/Empire tours, he was untouchable live. Ryche n Roll!
