Geoff Tate's voice is so strong, that it is actually keeping his coffee awake!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That comment needs 10k likes. 🤣
@@eldenjr Thank you friend! Stay Awake! Lol
Hahaha nice one!
LOL
Just amazing! Raw talent, no effects , no auto tune, no reverb . Just coffee
Spiro Lagousis LoL favorite comment of the day ! 😄
🤣
THE coffee
hooray for the coffee 😀
Spiro Lagousis perfect comment
There's a reason why no contestants on "The Voice" do Queensryche songs.
yeah vice grips on the testicles must surely hurt.....vocal genius
Geoff Tate is one of those vocalists that cannot be touched when covering their songs. One can only hope to not screw it up.
@@joshuaswanson1977 the Queensrÿche singer disagree
@@EricMacFadden I didn't say he wasn't good, just not Geoff Tate. It's like comparing apples to oranges. While he does a decent job with the Geoff Tate era Queensryche songs, he's not Geoff Tate.
@@joshuaswanson1977 it was a joke.
He now looks like a guy who'd be sitting at a coffee shop reading a philosophy book.
Lol ya ur right
True!
Hey Mike! Big fan of your channel!
Or Dostoevsky's The Possessed.
Sounds like when i first heard the song the first amazing and awesome thank you for the music and memories that go with them
When you're good, you're good...
When you're great, you're Geoff Tate! 🤘
voice like no other. have listened to this group since i was a teen and they are still at the top of my list
RIGHT ON! He sounds great!!
His voice was so powerful even as he's aged. Geoff took care of his voice and grateful for that.
Hell yeah, you said it best,
The man still has it one of the greatest voices ever
@FatalPies Hence the wording "one of." Why is there always some god damn jackass like you in every music conversation who says "no so and so was better?" Just stfu.
Had one of the best. Now he is subpar.
@@dsorichetti154 Babe Ruth was one of the best baseball players ever, now he's dead and he isn't the best. Everyone's Talent diminishes as they get older or die.
FatalPies -he cant sing his own songs anymore...
@@wordragon what the fuck are you talking about? He just sang one of his own songs.
By the way could you sing any of his songs? Post a video or audio of you singing them.
OPERATION: MINDCRIME WILL ALWAYS BE IN MY TOP 5 FAVORITE ALBUMS!!
Same here.
In my top 5 too.🤘🤘
Absolutely
Agreed.
What are the other 4?
Coffee cup in hand...he blows away 99% of vocalists half his age.......You are a maestro Mr Tate!!! Among the very best!!!!
Geoff Tate has one of the greatest voices I've ever hear period. I'm thankful to be alive during his lifetime
anyone still listening?? ;)
That coffee was probably 7$ I wouldn't put it down either.
dude mister ha ha ha ha
Best comment!
looking at the color of his teeth, he needs to put it down.
What's with the coffee?
😂
Tate casually belts this out with coffee in hand.... amazing voice
Douche Credits Paid!! :D Never took a sip... the Hat was almost fitting for his head! :D Geoff! Legend Vocals!!
Coffee ? We sure ? Not tea maybe ? lol
He's off key on his own song, but ok...
Geoff's voice was amazing back in the day, one of not if the best live voices ever in metal. Even for his age he's not all that impressive today, compare him with Bruce Dickenson who's about the same age and he's fallen off a lot less.
Plus as person he's fucking asshole. In someways I view him like Paul Di'Anno loved his voice but a complete tool only with Geoff it's not because of substance abuse it's because that's who he is.
GlassTopRX7 what?! Who cares- still sounds great
I don't think that is Geoff Tate, he doesn't look like that
I actually came here thinking this would suck!, I WAS SO WRONG!!
This is Dope 👍
Same!
I still think that if legal stuff hadnt happend tate would have left queenscryche anyway.. especially listening to his.solo stuff.. artistically different direction.
Me too
Same here
1 hand on his coffee, the other on his balls, and just casually belts out an incredible rendition of an all time classic.
😂😂😂🤘🤘
the one on the balls come first, the coffe late-r
Quick game of pocket billiards..
One of the greastest voices in music history. Always will listen and love Queensryche till I die
Yes....a definate Golden Voice!!!
Even after I die!
Hands down one of the greatest of all time.
Yes, I’ll take the “Eyes of a Stranger” with my latte!
🤘🏻
yes Latte Power
@Five Dogs Ranch
yes, but why does he look like he should be carrying a baguette in 1920s Paris?
me not you
“Because he’s Geoff Tate?” Final answer?
Yes, final answer!
That’s correct, you know have a free mochaccino ☕️.
👋🏻🤘🏻

I always thought Geoff Tate was one of the best lead singers in the business. It is so good to see him still belting out those lyrics and hitting those notes dead on!
I've always admired his voice talent, I can't understand how he has been so stifled over the years - maybe it was his choice, maybe he lives in his truth - I dunno, but his voice has rocked decades!!
I hope the bit about notes being dead on was meant ironically...🤔
He should re release that album with this acoustic arrangement. It would be badass. His voice is still amazing.
It'll B Badass If He Brings Bk Chris DeGarmo Along With It Too...😠👍
"Unplugged For Order"? Jesus, Just NO. One thing I always admired Ronnie James Dio for was to never pull some sappy Rainbow/Sabbath/Dio Unplugged Tour. "The Mob Relaxes: An Evening at Home With Ronald J. Padovana".
Dude , literally the most under-rated vocalist , and band. Operation Mindcrime is a masterpiece.
Having seen him perform live I'm pretty certain that microphone is 100% unnecessary!
If anything... they were more impressive live. Which doesn't happen often. Geoffs voice could give you full body chills.
It looks to me like he’s lip-synching in that little acoustic video!
Ive always thought that .. He has a huge voice that carries ...
Was it even on?
If you hear him on the Hearin Aid video you can hear him over the entire line up. He does not need a mic 😆
Personally I think this sounds pretty fucking good.
Chuck Novy I fucking agree 😄
Yeeessss.....!!!! 😆
I wish he had some reverb on his voice but it's still great
FPChris there is reverb on his voice.
@@iamagr8hunter I hear a touch of delay. If there's reverb it's still too dry IMO.
I remember the first time I heard his voice sitting in a friend's livingroom back in the early 80's. When he belted that high note at the beginning of take hold of the flame, shivers went down my spine. It happened again listening to this video!! Amazing talent and awesome voice. Many can sing but he brings the music to life.
John Doss yeah, take hold of the flame is just brilliant
For me....it was The Lady Wore Black
Same here, and at around the same time. We put the album on, trying to grasp what we were listening to as we listened to "Warning", not certain if we really liked it, but, by the time we got to "Take Hold Of The Flame", we were hooked!
He is fucking amazing tallent iv always dug Queensryche
So much emotion in his voice
nice job Geoff. screw the haters buddy youre the man.
Wow dude still has it fuken amazing!!
I don't hate him, I saw Q R in 2011 (just in time) Tate was so great just mesmerizing I've been obsessed every since.
Geoff, Bruce, and Halford, the mega power!!!💥💥🇱🇷💥💥
Agreed, but ya gotta throw Steve Perry in there too
Dio?
Mercury?
Meatloaf.....just kidding lol
I like the Tony Martin's tempre too.
Holy friggin crap is this amazing. His voice is still so strong. Gives me chills.
Wow that Uber driver can sing
James S 😂😂😂
LMAO
Yeah. I thought at first it was a really good impression of him. Oh well, can’t be metal all your life I guess
Lol!
That Uber driver made more money then you can ever make in your lifetime!!!
Geoff Tate should do a whole CD of Queensryche classics acoustically. I would buy it. RAWK!!!!
he can't because he only has the rights to operation mindcrime 1 and 2. he can't even use the queensryche name in any way.
This guy is a living legend that does not get enough respect in my opinion
Best overall singer, range, quality, screams, ever! Wow
Absolutely fantastic voice!
If you want to see him get respect, do a search for vocal coach reacts to Queensryche Take Hold of the Flame. That's a rabbit hole I"ve gone down over the past few months. Especially check out TheCharismaticVoice channel for that song.
@@the-dave-house-project I really enjoyed Mike Goodrich's reaction: VOICE TEACHER REACTS TO - QUEENSRYCHE - Take Hold Of The Flame - Live in Tokyo. When Geoff hits that high e note from 2 octaves below, Mike's face was priceless! When I see reactions to his voice, I always get a kick out of the reactor's faces. I'm like, yeah. He's THAT good live.
@@mermaid_at_heart213 Yep! That's a good one too. :)
Hey did you hear that nice clean and clear affects free voice?
Now F-off😁
uh there's clearly reverb on it lol, still nice voice
Ok here we go, lets hear this guy struggle to sound like he once di... wait....what? Whoa. WHOA!
He changed it so that he sings some of the particularly really high bits differently, but that's smart. It sounds infinitely better than him failing to hit notes.
He’s always been amazingly intelligent when it comes to that...saves it for what he knows he can do flawlessly and comes off totally pro! This guy was one of my biggest influences back in the day
@@DashCat9 saved it all for the end. Destroying the bridge and final refrain.
It's called getting old it will happen to you too.
I take it you didn't even listen to it. He actually killed it! So being so negative, dude. Geez
I'm impressed! I was a huge fan of Queensryche growing up. Geoff, you still have it! 👍
Nothing like making it look ridiculously easy, lol. What a talent.
It almost seems as if its so easy to glide thru those insane vocal ranges for him. Even after he has gotten older. A freak of nature almost. He should get more respect through out the music industry. One of the best I have ever heard
1st time I've heard an acoustic version of this tune. Fukn awesome job!!!! Love it!!!!
🤟😎🤙
Find the MTV Unplugged clips with Queensryche. All acoustic and this song was among the ones they performed. Done years ago and those unplugged session's were amazing.
I loved this performance but seriously go watch the Unplugged versions too.
@@KamaraNoir
I've got the MTV unplugged. They didn't do Eyes of a Stranger on it.
@@djjefferson311
Shit I could have sworn that was on there... weird.
Ck this out

I have great respect for all the members of Queensryche, but Tate is the heart of that band, and certainly what that band means to me. Operation Mindcrime is still way beyond its time. Timeless perhaps.
Along with Chris
Listen to the lyric from the original recording of this track.
"I've always known that the MIRROR never lies" He hasn't hit those notes in 20 years & won't sing anything off the first few albums because of it.
I don't blame him, Geoff had fantastic range back in the day, but has a mainly low register.Most singers lose their high end with age, but it was bound to happen to Geoff because he had a deep voice to begin with.
Todd is lucky to have a high register so he probably won't encounter this issue with age.
Aside from that, I saw the footage of the way Geoff behaved toward his bandmates on stage, spitting in Scott Rockenfield's face repeatedly & punching Wilton in the face before the same show.I lost all respect for him as a person at that point.
Citizen 337 degarmo was the heart. Tate was the soul
@@_BLACKSTAR_ Respect is what each human has to deliver to be respected otherwise the former strongest is lost to the next one.
Divides the boys from the men👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
with a crowbar......badump dump
@@poppyhimbo You beat me to it
"Want me to hold your coffee Geoff?”
"No, why do you ask”?
"But while we're at it: Take hold! Of the flaaaame" ;)
Sorry, could not resist an opportunity for a bad pun!
That dude from Myth Busters has an amazing voice!
Haha
He actually looks like a combination of both guys from Mythbusters.
It's "Peaky Blinded: A Roaring '20s Queensrÿche Retrospective".
You are the real reason Queensryche became anything at all Geoff. The Man!
Well, and Chris Degarmo's licks.
whoa. no love for degarmo?
Wrong. Degarmo's songwriting is what made QR. Their music fell off a cliff after he left, regardless of how good Tate's voice is.
I think Geoff was incredibly important to their success, but so was Chris. Often times it is the combination of elements that is what allows both to achieve more than they would have apart. I dont think either would have been as successful without the other.
Geoff was/is phenomenal... but PLEASE .... Scott played the shit out of those awesome chain link drums ... Queensryche had a lot going for it - including chemistry - but like all beautiful things, it came to an end .... a sad, sad end ....
Those lows and highs...OMG!!! Geoff that voice is a gift from the Divine.
This still makes me sick. With that voice, and Degarmos talent, QR should have lived well beyond now.
I agree a million percent! My all time favorite band for most of my life
@@ilaacosta2411yes
Depressing huh.
Uggh, so sad because... all that talent, they should have been huge, they were so amazing and so under appreciated.
I'll never forget the Mindcrime tour. 2nd row... ok gonna go cry now. Lol
They were pretty big.
@@Hellenicheavymetal Any long time QR fan will admit they never got the true recognition deserved. They were somewhat big. But with their talent they should have been much bigger. Not blaming the band at all but the industry. They were never given their due, at that time in their history.
Without a doubt one of the greatest vocalists of all time
Absolutely love his voice even after all these years, still strong as ever!
I almost didnt click in the video due to the club house cap guy holding a starbucks on the stage. Geoff still shines and the acoustic arrangement was a 10/10.
Talking about things you might miss beacuse of prejudice.
Yeah I thought for a second this was a stand up comedian lol
Whoa, Geoff sounds incredible! Hear that quick change between chest register and falsetto? Brilliant! I know I'm late here but was a huge Queensryche fan growing up in the 80's & 90's. The whole Operation Mindcrime albumn was (is) epic, never stops, flows like a single story. 🤘🎸🤘
I literally just bought Operation Mindcrime for $4.00 two days ago! And I agree..EPIC LP. I can't believe I still remember the lyrics. LOL!
Operation Mindcrime Tour ...Long Beach Sports Arena. Best concert I’ve ever been to !
@@kellicouch5883 hahah, I hear ya, I still lose my voice everytime I try to sing along with the album, lol! (Keyword "try")
That's not falsetto.
@justin evans LOL..I hear ya. I used to belt it out with the greats ie. Geoff, Bruce, Rob, etc. as a teenager. I've always had a great voice but sadly, the aging process has taken it's toll somewhat & the pipes are beginning to crack a bit. But at least our generation created the best music ever recorded. Unlike the "music" of today..CRAP!! I never thought I'd say Rock-n-Roll is dead but..it is.😢
Kudos to the sound folks. The setup sounds great.
rticle15 Hell yeah. They knew just how to dial it in for Geoff’s voice. Makes all the difference. Makes a great singer sound even greater
I seen Geoff last year do the whole Operation Mindcrime and he rocked it!!! Still has that great voice 🤘
I still love Geoff's voice. There is no Queensryche without it.
Absolutely.
There has been Queensrÿche without Tate since 2012 and it's going great.
Why in the *HELL* isn't *Queensryche, Grand Funk Railroad, & Uriah Heep* in the *Rock n Roll Hall of Fame?*
Really!
@Kip Winner Where are the right wing zealots? Guess they can't handle rock 'n' roll.
See how stupid it sounds?
@Kip Winner" fanatical and uncompromising about political beliefs"... even enough to bring it here and make it about music!
If the R&R HOF is stupid (and they are) then they must be libtards.
What if Geoff Tate is a "libtard"?
Would you lose all respect for him?
Does it sound stupid to you yet?
Kip Winner that may be the single stupidest comment I’ve read in a while. Yes because hard rock and metal always attracted the those conservative right wing groups!
Wow ! High notes are back ! Reminds me of his prime time
The song has been tuned down to his level he cant hack it electric anymore
The backing vocalists bail him out massively.
M.RileyJunior
Bullshit, bro. That sounded great!
He sounds like a guy who can't hack it anymore. He sounds like shit!!!
@@seanmeier8704 troll....
One of the greatest voices of our time. I'm in total awe every time I hear that amazing voice.
Still absolutely great. Seen Queensryche get booed at a Metallica show as they opened with Queen of the Ryche. Geoff hits the chorus refrain high note and turns 20,000 folks into shouts of applause. They smoked Metallica performance wise. I was shocked
Was that the AJFA tour?
Yep back in 89.
Metallica's a Garage Band
Um....no, they didn't smoke Metallica. I was there, at Long Beach Arena. I love Queensryche, but Metallica are the kings.
@@jimlundquist3600 Metallica's the worst GarageBand in the fucking universe
Random critic..."You can't take a Metal Classic, strip it down on acoustic instruments, and expect it to have the same impact...."
Geoff...."Hold my coffee..........actually, don't worry, I'll hold it myself....."
Spectacular!!
Amazing! Geoff Tate simply belts out an amazing vocal performance casualty dressed with coffee in hand.
Great backing band as well !
Wow! He sounds very good here.
Very good! But no where CLOSE to Vince Neil!!!! ...........BWAAA HAAA HAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!! I kill me!
I agree.. His voice is better than Vince's 😜Vince can no longer sing.
He’s been one of my favourite vocalists. What an amazing range, even unplugged!
Yep...im standing here with a cup of coffee looking like a professor...belting out one of the most awesome tracks from one of the greatest albums ever recorded
Just goes to prove your just as good live without all that electronic devices lol
Nice high note !!!! Thanks !
Queensryche is one of the best progressive rock bands of all time. Operation mind crime was a work of art. You just dont see bands like them right now. Rock needs a revival.
Im trying im trying!
See what putting DOWN cigs drugs and booze can do!
Try Dark Water a great band reminds of Dream Theater in the good years
100% agree.
My 8th grade English teacher can rock! Seriously, one of the best voices ever and an amazing band.
As one other stated. Simply “MAJESTIC”.
They don’t make them like that anymore
Saint G Tate
He hasn't sounded this good in years.
Since 2005, honestly
Thank you Tobias Sammet.
Wow...I actually thought he lost his voice...still sounds rough...but the...talent is still there
Someone tell tony martin
See the REAL Qeensryche with Todd LaTorre in 2019 to hear all the notes Geoff hasn't been able to hit in 20 years.
He was cool in the 80's ... Aaaawww that voice... He's aging gracefully...
This is perfection, by an incredible vocalist at the top of his game.
Wow! So much talent. His voice truly is an instrument. The band sounded fantastic. Love hearing a singer from my youth be able to sound just as good as he did 30 years ago. Always something special about Geoff.
Chillin' in my vest, Burberry hat, coffee and lettin' ya'll know I'm still BOSS! Casually lettin' ya'll know....Operarion Mindcrime was my introduction to the brilliance of Queensryche. Had it on cassette and completely wore the damn thing out. Then I discovered The Warning, Rage For Order and the Self Titled EP. One of my favorite bands. For sure
He will always have the gold of the past. One of the Best vocalist we've seen.
This Man, this Voice are incredible... fantastic...
Geoff is sounding so much better now compared to
How he was sounding in 2013. Good job 👏
After hearing this, an acoustic album Of QR stuff wouldn’t be a bad idea.
He's holding back the WHOLE TIME! What a voice. What range. Just fantastic all around. If you're having a shitty day, just watch Goeff navigate this song effortlessly 3+ decades later.
Well done! He sounded amazing...best I’d heard him in years. Happy he found that amazing voice again. Hope he tours and has success.
Fantastic voice.
Tate Is Master Vocal🎤
Geoff Tate is one of the greatest vocalists. Nonchalantly holding his coffee while belting out lyrics.
Really a masterclass in vocal phrasing in this performance.
He is now as he always was absolutely AMAZING!!!!! Man that voice .. incredible!!!! Thanks for sharing the video. Queensryche has always been a top dog.
See the REAL Qeensryche with Todd LaTorre in 2019 to hear all the notes Geoff hasn't been able to hit in 20 years.
@@_BLACKSTAR_ the REAL Queensryche ??? YOU MEAN Geoffrey Tate. He was Queensryche He made them and they are not the same without him. But I appreciate the comment though.
@@EpicWarDog I'd say they are BETTER without him.Listen to the lyric from the original recording of this track.

Amazing, wasn't expecting the acoustic version to work as well as that. Also, geoff holding back from the high chorus parts until the end really helped the song peak. Band was good too 👍
This is amazing! Geoff sounds majestic again :)
I was fortunate enough to see Queensryche in concert back in the early 2000s and they were amazing. Geoff Tate is absolutely amazing and they made some great music with mindcrime and empire albums
When the poetry reading breaks out into metal 🤟🏻
At 4.02 I was literally listening with my my mouth being wide open of surprise of what my ears were receiving... how on earth could you still sing the whole sentence of "mirror never lies ' with such an impeccable way?
You obviously can't hear ! It sucked !

he still hits the high tones and keeps a good balance with general melodic tones, great job Geoff! \m/
Great performance...mr.Tate...next world tour maybe full Rage for Order..??...would be great!!!!!!👍👍👍😜
Saw both London gigs of the Operation:Mindcrime 30th anniversary tour this year at Camden Underworld in May and December.Were both great but the second one was awesome.Geoff and the band were really on top form.
Love to see him do the Rage album in full as that's my favourite album of his.
I Don't Think He CAN as there is Settlement of Lawsuits between Him and the Band(Ryche). They have the Entire Catalog(including 'Mindcrime') and Geoff CAN preform Songs from Both 'Mindcrime' Albums in their Entirety. :-\
I know 'Eyes of a stranger wasn't from Rage for order but...Rage for order was an awakening for me...
Almost 40 something years on the road and he still has the voice. Awesome.
....Till I raise my head to Geoff Tate... With this cup... of Coffeeeeeeee... I'll always know that, There will be no one eeeeelse!
I raise my cup of coffee to that! ☕ :3
This is when you know you can write a great song. You can interpret it in any fashion and it still kicks ass.
Good to see an older rock star sounding great, looking serious and not trying to dress like a teenager!
Marc Atherton LoL .... take note Nikki sixx
He's aging gracefully. Still worth a concert ticket.
Hell yeah.
He sounds great. But Dress like a teenager? The Sean Connery at a coffee shop doeskin really fit IMHO. Many older musicians can still dress appropriately and not dress like 80's glam.. Seriously you think that look would look right n stage? His bandmates surely didnt shop at the same store. However yes he sounds great!!!
He looks like some yuppy hipster douche. Capitalism is stronger though.
OMG! Proof that Geoff is a rock God! One of the most talented voices ever!❤
I saw Geoff much more younger at Rock in Rio 2, 26 years ago. Now he loks like a sociology teatcher 😅. But his voice keeps great!
That moment when one of your childhhod metal heroes turns into your grandpa.... (still got that voice tho).
I’m going to see Queensryche in a few months.... but I realize that I should be going to see Geoff Tate.
Lucky bastard!!! 😜 i wish!!
I saw them this year. They're pretty much just a really good tribute band. Todd la Torre sounds a lot like Geoff Tate but the magic is gone. I saw Queensryche in 1990, I'll never forget that show!
Was it worth it? They're doing a show in my town in a few weeks.
@@bariswheel I had free tickets so yes. They played more of their new stuff than classics so if you are more a fan of the old stuff you may be a little disappointed.
Baris Wheel Show is coming up in a few weeks in St Louis. I’ll report back.
Holy shit, that was epic! That voice is still as amazing as ever. Plus, their best song!
Amazing voice
He was born in '58 ( like B. Dickinson)
The King is back
Born in 59'
sincerelly i think that bruce has keeped a better voice, live is still incredible, tate is not so strong enough
@@francescoballetta7945
I respect your opinion!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@francescoballetta7945 bruce never had the range or abilty goeff had....and thats saying alot because bruce is amazing. But, being a vocalist myself, i have to disagree with you. Bruce couldn't sing this stuff now.
Having SEEN Both Geoff(Rage for Order Tour) and Bruce(World Slavery Tour) I will Say that Geoff had Way More Range than Bruce BUT this is Also Due to What their Respective Roles in their Bands Were. Queensryche was Tate and DeGarmo(Writers) as Opposed to Maiden where Harris Wrote 95+% of the Music and was a Band with ALL Parts being Equal. Incidentally Bruce is WAY More of a Showman on Stage Then AND Now! ;-) RUclips Recent Maiden Shows!!
Surely one of the best voices in rock history. Quite underrated.
🤣🤣🤣
@@AlexSosaBolivia Laughs? Perhaps you don't think so... Perhaps you think he is not one of the best voices in rock history or perhaps you think he does have all the recognition he deserves...
@@christianperla7126 What’s funny is your use of the term “underrated” to describe a singer who is in fact very highly rated. His skills as a vocalist have never been in question by anyone with any knowledge of this music. Either you’re unaware of the meaning of the word “underrated,” or you’re deliberately putting forth an idea that is patently false.

Nothing is more random and ridiculous than this hysterical need to label just about everyone on RUclips “underrated” in some sorry and misguided attempt to project that you are in possession of knowledge that the rest of the world is ignorant of.

I know it’s asking a lot to expect people today to understand the meaning of the language they choose to use, but you might give it a try just once, OK Sparky?
A true legend . The best voice in world ,long life to Geoff.
I get chills every time he sings…he has what most singers dream they had! He makes it look so easy and that shows just how much better he is than most ! 💕
Wow, I don't usually double comment but...
What's with all the haters. He's older, and by proxy so are his vocal cords. He adapted his style to fit his age and if any of you trolls that are complaining about it are like me and grew up with QR, I challenge you to get up on stage and do better.
Yes! Very well spoken , I couldn't have said better myself! They sound incredible!!!
