Queensryche - Promised Land Live

[tietensex]

Those were the days

[Djasper321]

There's something magic about the Queensryche music från 1986 to 1994. This is epic! :)

[QueensrycheMike5150]

I was lucky enough to be "roadie for a day" on this tour - 9am -11pm - a full day - but awesome,lunch and dinner with the band,1hr soundcheck and all access to the show - it was pretty sweet......

[khantatat]

Amazing performance. Amazing song. Amazing band. Amazing singer.

[maharet64]

LOVE IT!! thanks for the video

[DramaDon83]

Disenchantment....I am relating so much to this right now...mostly because of my choices...

[hulk90000]

[sepulchre777]

You're probably right...

[privateeye29]

I was at this show in Denver, also age 18. It was unforgettable

[tomcur33]

[tietensex]

He obviously needs aid from sister Mary.

[sepulchre777]

Could have done without the theatrics... The song caries itself. 

[quazzie11]

@sepulchre777 Apparently you didn't see this tour. It was incredible and you wouldn't have minded the theatrics one bit.

[theyetidude]

They are dressed like a 1986 high school talent show...

[YouJustGotSome]

@theyetidude well it is 1995

[SearchWithinDivine]

Thank you!!

[DTM1864]

I wish they had DVD's for this tour also. I saw it live and loved every minute.

[Neueregel]

Promised land =

best rock cd of the 90's !!

[tabitha448]

I love this band

[LyricsVsMe]

i miss this season of queensryche.....

[spookyized]

This is one of the most under rated albums that queensryche ever put out. Isaw this tour here in Nashville TN at Starwood amplitheater, It was an awesome tour and performance, you just had to see it all from the beging to the end, it was a great come back from trying to compete with EMPIRE. I thought i would never see anything about the promise land ever again i cant belive someone has got this origanal footage of this , this is very rare to see this.

[Djasper321]

They should have stopped after this. At the top of their peak!

[halfevil333able]

another case of tate not knowing if he wants to be a lousy actor or a washed up

singer in some fucked up mtv band. if you think this is bad catch the 2010 shit /it only gets worse

[Soilworker091]

@halfevil333able Fuck You!

[halfevil333able]

@Soilworker091 fuck you prick!! you suck just like all queens on this page

[YouJustGotSome]

@halfevil333able take that baack

[halfevil333able]

@YouJustGotSome beat it pimple face!!

[halfevil333able]

Respond to this video...my rating for this is Rated PU for totally sucky and sorry ass musci and band!!!! 

[fabbola]

Tate should just do theater and let the other guys be a band with a new front man. The band members look so out of place in all of Tate's "acting".

[FreeMTrider]

@fabbola ahh...don't be so critical man. It's only music and the band has never been afraid of doing different things. I've seen interviews of all the band members and they all shared this view. I saw this tour and it was pretty spectacular. They've never really followed anyone particular style.

[tietensex]

At first I really thought there really was a drunk man sitting there while the band played. One of the best performances ever! Hope everyone who longs for it reaches his promised land.

[SenoraBianca]

Thanks so much for this video! Such a great song.. got to see this QR show @ the Gorge in George, WA and was blown away by the presentation, esp this particular song/scene. Really wish they would've done a live DVD of this tour...

[kuromomo00]

great song!!

[LeBart021]

I saw them live in 1991. It would be great to repeat that unforgettable experience...

[doma3333]

Saw this tour.

Was one of my favourite rock concerts ever.

[tietensex]

I'll promise that I'll stop drinking ^_^

[hulk90000]

six stars

[jbsouthpaw2009]

Wow can you imagine the shock and horror that an old school metal Queensryche fan experienced seeing THIS on the stage. Don't get me wrong this is one of my favorite albums from them. More so these days than Mindcrime 1 or Empire. I am I is my favorite track. They were a little more creative than their old fans wanted with Promised Land and Hear In the Now Frontier. Some good tracks off of both IMHO. Q2K not so much. Tribe album was the last of their best too me.

[SenoraBianca]

Ooooh yeah, I remember when this came out.. the screams of "this isn't QR!!" and all the flaming about "you can't have a sax in rock music".. Personally I think the wailing of the sax in this one perfectly accentuates the lyrics' feeling of loss and disillusionment.. And my opinion,: this IS QR, pushing the envelope, trying new things in the lush landscape of their music... "Promised Land" was the last of the best.. "Tribe" had some good songs, but just wasn't up to par overall.

[jbsouthpaw2009]

@SenoraBianca Agree with your comments 100 %. The best tracks on Tribe were "Falling Behind" and "Open". Open being the heaviest on the album. Coincidentally the last "official" collaboration of Founding guitarist/hit songwriter Chris Degarmo. Mindcrime 2 was truly a horror for me. Sad but true. They were great on tour on 2008 when I saw them in Atlanta. Michael Wilton didn't seem to "raise his game" guitar wise after Degarmo left. Degarmo was very underrated as a guitarist and songwriter.

[AngryAgain]

@jbsouthpaw2009 i wouldn't call it a total horror but yea OMC 2 has a bunch of filler. their big mistake was not getting DeGarmo involved in writing for OMC2, if you r going to do a sequel at least get the original people together to write and float ideas

Even if DeGarmo is not interested in touring, he should've been brought in as a consultant at least

[danimal97520]

@AngryAgain Couldn't agree more. OMC2 isn't bad. But having heard the original, OMC2 is missing alot and the most part is DeGarmo. He was vital in my opinion to the original (and the band in general). Should've brought him in for sure.

[danimal97520]

@SenoraBianca I bought this when it came out and had a friend that was also was a big Ryche fan. They raised hell about this album, where as I loved it from day one. Never been quite sure why people dislike this album so much. Aside from Mindcrime, this might be my favorite album of theirs. Great songs all the way through.

[germhens]

That song is an anthem! It's my favorite Queensryche song!

[deadlysaxmachine]

one of the best songs ever written in rock history

[retrack93]

Marrant de voir Scott avec un si petit set de batterie.

[SenoraBianca]

@retrack93..

oui, je conviens! :)

[lightspeed66]

this song, from this tour in Indianapolis is how i choose to remember QR. I've been with them since the EP, but this is where I left off. . . .sigh.

[U3X6785]

I remember Type O Negative opened for them... Was a great show....

[Drakonianhell]

Que Maravilla!

[Lazrid1]

Queensryche puts on one of the ebst shows I have ever seen live,this tour was just....wow....I dont know how else to say it.Brings back great memories.Cant wait to see them live again

[Lazrid1]

got to see this tour live....The set was great and the show was almost 3 hours long

[Antimonitor]

is there a live dvd of this tour at all. cuz id love to see it, escpecially with the set you can see here

[xylonst]

A killer song, i still believe the riff is one of the heaviest i have heard in a long time

[RPRpsych]

EXCELLENT performance. Queensryche at their very best. Muchas gracias for posting!

[rtuhlik]

The Best thing about this clip...Looks like kareoke! my god, Its not! seen the same show in INDY. The BEST, and most underated show I have ever seen! PISSED ME OFF that most fans did not get to see one of the best concerts a person could ever see in a lifetime. KISS has Fireworks! The Promise Land Tour had everything else. I may be wrong, But I do think gene would agree.....and never tell anyone! Dr.Bob

[Queensryche2806]

wow..tate the mastervoice!!

[Djasper321]

Queensryche at their peak. A true masterpiece!

[Renegadrian]

4.10 I had shivers everywhere... Wow How I love this song...I'd surely cry as I did with Silent Lucidity and Eyes of a Stranger...

[Djasper321]

4.10 it is!

[PabloQ2K]

Mataría por un dvd de esta gira...

[Rad600]

check out the bartender at 5:27

[jem777lng]

very good observation

[neuromancer13]

This song is so deep in emotions...

I wish they were still around making songs like the old days.

[s0ckii]

Thanks so much for this video...I still remember that tour vividly from seeing it in the Philly area. Just amazing stuff, still powerful today.

[hisie80]

WOW! How can he act, sing and play sax at the same time? That's amazing

[donivendetta]

he has a way of speaking my thoughts, oh how i wish i could express my self the way he does

[ferdinardos]

piece of art!i dint knew that geoff plays also the saxophone solo in this song.

[ajrock123]

Saw this tour out doors at the Mann Music Center in Philly... it was a sweet summer night and an awesome show! Got autographs @ meet n greet! What memories!

[hawkhandsaw]

Also, I gotta say, Geoff playing sax live is really cool!

[hawkhandsaw]

Geoff showing off his intrinsic acting ability. Great stage concept! Wish i had seen this show.

[Judezki]

Omg, it could be nice to have some DVD's from this tour!

[AngryAgain]

@Judezki yea I wish they would put out a dvd from this tour too.

[wolfgange63]

@Judezki I agree! I seen this show in Orlando. Although this album didnt get alot of good reviews, I thought it was pretty good. Kind of a psychological overtone to this conceptual album. To me it was the last of the best of QR...sorry to say.

[quazzie11]

@wolfgange63 "this album didnt get alot of good reviews,....."

Just goes to show these "experts" are anything but.

[Moonietoons]

@Judezki .. I agree 200%... this was the most visually interesting tour of theirs, it would've been perfect for a DVD release. We can always hope, right?

[DuaneGib]

They ever put out a dvd of a show from this tour?

[Chrissym80]

saw them live too. it was a great performance

[Jerca5]

Good Lord, this is sooo awesome!

One of the greatest bands ever.

This is one of my all time fave QR songs..

It looks like Geoff was into acting in 1995 as well..Nice Job!!

[tomek30gda]

Queensryche is the best, music nr 1

[genecottone]

i saw this tour in 95 at the forum in la cali.good show.chris was around for this tour.but with all the wannabe film makers out there what do you expect.all they care about is keeping the camera on the lead singer only.this was a good album as well.

[gaae2000]

nice, i missed this 1995 tour completly.

[khantatat]

masterpiece. priceless video. this is gg.

[strangecat33]

I also love to see the old stuff with Chris. Too bad we don't get to see very much of him in this video!

Still a great vid, thanks!

[agisilaos]

[Chezzy77]

Thanks ! I love to see the old stuff from the good old days with Chris.
