I must've been about 14 years old when I was stuck in Mindcrime. I occasionally visit the album but I don't know where my CD went. I never really got into QR before or after Mindcrime.

Concept albums . . . who does 'em anymore?

I think Grimes and I saw QR live at the Long Beach Arena opening for Metallica in '89. I recall QR's drum set with the chains.

Operation: Mindcrime & Empire are my favorites. Rage For Order is really good also. I didn't like Promised Land and pretty much dropped them after that record.

I like Queensryche up to Empire. After that, I lost interest. Not a big fan of Promise Land or anything after it. Although the record with the new singer is decent so hopefully they will go in a good direction from now on.
Guitars:
'78 Les Paul Pro / '89 SG Special/ '04 Gibson Les Paul Classic 3 pickup / Jackson Star/ Endres Tele / Fernandes Rhoads/ ''74 Hohner MIJ strat/ 2 Partscasters

Amps:
Depends on when you ask. I got tired of constantly updating this section lol

Cabs
Marshall 1960A w V30s/ Seismic 2x12 w Redback and V30.

I haven't seen them live since back when Tate was still with them (deGarmo was already gone, though... :mad: ), but I do like LaTorre (sp?) or whatever New Guy's name is. As you said, hopefully that's a good redirect for the band. :thu:
