I'm watching this concert on a Saturday night almost 2023 WOW!!!!!! I remember watching this concert when it was first released. It still gives me goosebumps
I saw them on this tour. They opened for Iron Maiden at Radio City Music Hall in New York City. To this day, it was one of the best shows I've ever seen. I was something like 10th row, center. I was 14 years old at the time. A memory of a lifetime.

I believe Maiden played all 7 scheduled shows, but Queensrÿche only played 5 of them (for some reason). I've uploaded 2 of those shows. Which one did you attend?
Queensrÿche Bootlegs I don't remember which night we went to, and I lost my ticket stub over the years. It was one of the greatest nights of my life though. I'd give anything to be able to go back to that night, and start over again from there. Just to do it all one more time. lol Do you have the Maiden performances,or just the Queensryche??

Ahh bummer. Anything special from the show that stands out in particular? :) I have the Iron Maiden performances from the 18th, 19th, and 21st - so far I only have the Queensrÿche shows from the 18th, and 19th.
Queensrÿche Bootlegs It's a pretty blurry memory after all these years, but I do remember that both bands played exceptionally well. The Maiden performance was just unbelievable, and indescribable. I remember we went to the show armed with plenty of weed. We smoked out the whole section. LOL!! I remember being disappointed that Maiden didn't perform the song "The Duelists" from the new LP. Maiden released a video from that tour. Have you ever seen it?? How's the quality of the Maiden recordings?? Are any of them any good, or just rough audience recordings?? In those days, all bootlegs sounded like they were recorded with two tin cans and a string. Grateful Dead was one of the few bands that actually had high quality bootlegs in circulation, which was something of a novelty before the internet became popular.

I've heard plenty of bootlegs from the 70s and 80s with good/great/excellent audio quality - and not just Japanese recordings. Those three Maiden recordings I mentioned earlier I would rank like this: The 18th sounds similar to the Queensrÿche recording, slightly better - recorded by the same guy - I'd rank it good/great depending on the song. The 19th I have two sources for, one of them being recorded by the same guy which again sounds the same as the Queensrÿche recording, I'd rank it good overall, although it's incomplete - the other source sounds worse, it's free of any level instability and distortion, but it's really distant. The 21th sounds a bit distant as well, but otherwise is a good/great recording as well depending on the song - the audience can drown out the vocals from time to time, that's how enthusiastic the crowd was!
Crazy to think they played this show before Warning was released. They were so tight, and energized. I saw them open for Kiss in Seattle on the Warning tour, and headline for the Rage tour in San Diego.
How the hell did Kiss ever follow this act? That’s like Sabbath trying to follow young Van Halen in 78 or Ozzy trying to follow young Metallica in 86. Sure Kiss are veteran hard rockers who know how to whip up a crowd just short of a frenzy but if Queensryche sounded this good I just can’t see Kiss even coming close.
Saw them open for Ratt on the Rage Tour in Baton Rouge, twice when they played new years eve shows at the colosseum in Seattle, with Heart at the Gorge on the Columbia River, and every single show they were like this; as good if not better than the recordings. Being a drummer, I was always blown away by Scott. Like Neil, the drum parts he wrote for the albums were exactly what he played live. They were a phenomenal band.
Gotta love the pompadour. ,,, and yes, I saw this tour for Warning, and we actually met Tate after the show. I didn’t realize he was that short until then, even though I had just watched them on stage.
Geoff Tate was CLEARLY better than the 3 greats Dickinson, Halford and Dio... Just underlines how good he really was in his prime, hands down out of this world, incomparable...
@@kaylu4984 I've been revisiting my own CD collection and jamming to the classic 80s stuff I will not deny his vocal power in his prime I actually got the opportunity to see them open for Maiden (yeah shows my age lol) Suite Sister Mary will always be my all time fave track!
Digan lo que digan ..este recital es una obra maestra que todo rockero debiera tener..grande queensryche...geoff tate se roba la palicula grande cris de garmo..de lo que me habia perdido lo pado escuchando ahora geoff tate un grande ...
The Warning along with Queensryche EP is one of my favourite albums ever, and while I consider both DeGarmo and Wilton guitar geniuses, on their first record I prefer Wilton's stuff like this masterpiece
For a moment I thought it was playback. This kind of pictch very rare singers can reach. Even today I`m still suspicious. But if he really has this great voice is a blessing by God, before whom he should kneel down and be thankful every day of his life!
Deliverance Queensrÿche Produced by James Guthrie Album: The Warning Ride swift across the plain Don't you turn back, keep heed in your flame Kings with no mercy, this planet at war Torn from enchantment, this land forevermore Born from obsession, you cried death for light You saw things before and after you died Back from beyond to rule again But this life denies you its fight to the end Back from the dawn Deliver us right from wrong Kings forge the way For your last day You search the eyes of those Who fear the law Dark and light we all must keep the balance strong One day a king will rise with the sun The moon, and the stars And you are he and you must die, to be Born again, come again, once more be again the king Back from the dawn Deliver us right from wrong Kings forge the way For your last day Written by: Michael Wilton ℗ Capitol Records, LLC Release Date:September 7, 1984
Had this on VHS but it somehow got left behind when I left the UK. Thanks for the share. I did see them on this tour, in Liverpool when they supported DIO. Queensryche were the very FIRST rock/metal band I saw live. As a spotty, snotty nosed 13 year old, I was in awe. They remained my favourite band right up to when they released Tribe, and the conflict within the band killed it for me. Still, everything up to that album is immense!

That's cool! And I actually uploaded the show you saw - ruclips.net/p/PLxDcWR6wjL0cKZd3Oj9tTbiZwe-egkU_8
Wilton wrote this by himself, he along with Rockenfield and Jackson were the "metal" guys in the band. Once Geoff and Chris tried to turn it into the next Def Leppard it was over. Thankfully years later Todd came to the rescue and the band has some respect again.
Queensryche never was a straight metal band. Creatively way ahead of any of the other bands around in that time. You could see there was going to be a natural progression into new ground, and thanks to that we had awesome albums like Empire and Promised Land too.
@@Butchy1 Queensryche evolved from a metal cover band named Joker which included all the musicians in the band, their first 2 releases were pure metal. they weren't way ahead of bands like Crimson Glory, Fates Warning and Dream Theater, are you new to music? Empire was way too simplified and Pop sounding, didn't hold a candle to the first 4 releases. Promised Land was better, but unfortunately after that it got bad, really bad until Todd came on board.
@@keyguy4752 Not new to music at all, just wouldn’t want to be stuck in 1981 and listen to the same “style” of metal for a bands whole career. But with songs like “En Force” and “Child of Fire” you could see they weren’t conventional metal. Queensryche was always going to change because they were so progressive and had SO MUCH to say. They are observational, not fantasy based like Dream Theater for example, so Queensryche moved with the times. Some really deep ideas in Promised Land, and is purely a continuation from the ideas in Empire. Lots of thought provoking lyrics and atmospheric sounds that “fans” just couldn’t get there heads around. All depends how open minded you are really and what you want from a metal band. I personally love change, and am glad DeGarmo and Tate did what they wanted, and not just for fan appeasement.
@@Butchy1 Huh? Dream Theater Fantasy? The drummer wrote an entire 10 song suite based on his struggles with alcoholism, as well as compositions regarding the death of his father.. All members of the band are song writers and have focused on various subjects. Please identify these "fantasy" songs I need a good laugh. En Force and Child of Fire are pure metal songs written by Wilton and DeGarmo thanks for proving my point. I appreciate change too, which is why I like Maiden's first album with DiAnno and , Stratton others many years later with Dickinson and Smith. The changes that you love so much led to some very bad embarrassing albums like American Soldier and Dedicated oi Chaos, if you like that stuff I can't help you.
@@keyguy4752 We are two different beasts mate with differing opinions, I personally think it went downhill after Tribe, DeGarmos last contribution which gave it class quality in all departments. A great album with superb writing. But you’d probably disagree since it doesn’t have that “metal” sound anymore. They went a big grunge, used different gear, introduced slide and really stripped it back to basics. Like with HITNF. It just all depends how much you embrace change. For example, I loved Maidens X-Factor because it went darker and a bit more progressive and kind of sounded like the band starting fresh. Again, lots would disagree. I like to see bands evolve, as I said before, and not just for fan appeasement. The changes from OM to Empire to Promised Land was epic, but only if you like to see a band mature and take that natural progression.

Degarmo’s background vocals are like Michael Anthony’s background vocals with original Van Halen so underrated and key to the classic sound
Geoff has the best vocal, no one will ever compare
There is almost no difference between the studio and this live version.Freakin' great.
This was their greatest concert imo
@@mythsqueuemusic That was recorded . I agree.
Is amazing how good was Geoff Tate and what a band!
Lord Almighty, I love me some Queensryche y'all! Especially Geoff Tate! What a sexy man with a talented powerhouse of a voice!
Totally over the top POWER!

From Queen of the Reich mini album until Promised Land they give to the Metal Music Superb Gemms !!! Salud y Vida Pa'lante !!! Cheers and Life On !!!

Wow I wish I was there
I saw this same tour, probably a gig ahead or behind you in Biloxi. Lillian Axe was also on the bill.
Next level drummer.
Doesn't get much better than this
one of my favorite bands ever!!!! thanks for let me see the magic
You're welcome :)
Awesome
Just fucking amazing!

Geoff so wonderful🙏him voice, WOUAH ‼️incredibly 💕🎼
Nobody, but NOBODY, had the raw vocal power of Tate in the 80s. Maybe Rob Halford is a close second.
@Jacques Malan Tate and Halford were 1A and 1B, interchangeably.
And Ronnie...the 3 kings

Thank you so much for these amazing performances. So grateful to have them.

Deliverance
Queensrÿche
Produced by James Guthrie
Album: The Warning
Ride swift across the plain
Don't you turn back, keep heed in your flame
Kings with no mercy, this planet at war
Torn from enchantment, this land forevermore
Born from obsession, you cried death for light
You saw things before and after you died
Back from beyond to rule again
But this life denies you its fight to the end
Back from the dawn
Deliver us right from wrong
Kings forge the way
For your last day
You search the eyes of those
Who fear the law
Dark and light we all must keep the balance strong
One day a king will rise with the sun
The moon, and the stars
And you are he and you must die, to be
Born again, come again, once more be again the king
Back from the dawn
Deliver us right from wrong
Kings forge the way
For your last day

Queensryche viejo me encanta, lástima que se disolvieron
Somehow better than studio version
Geoff had a Simon LeBon meets Rob Halford thing going on back then

Nice. I managed to find an old torrent still seeding that bootleg about 18 months ago. I was amazed to hear the show I was at.
Wow! Saw them on the same tour in Northern Ireland.
his vocals sounded completely different by 1990 on the Empire Album and the other ones after that
Want an idea of Geoff Tate's vocal range? The man is considered a baritone.
THAT was Queensryche
In thier prime
Seems Tokyo brought out the best music lol
I think his style of singing was imitated by a lot of Japanese bands. Like maybe L'arc En Ciel.
Where can I get this full DVD video recording?
to think that Nirvana killed this stuff is mindblowing...
I hate nirvana and whole grunge scene
