@@rentedtux1883 Rage is excellent, but a little too glam by comparison for me. I prefer the theme and bite of Mindcrime, and even over that, Livecrime.
I love Mindcrime, but think The Warning is, the best, Queensryche Cd. Mindcrime/ep/The Warning are definitely the best. ...By far.......!! I think Rage For Order is just...good, but doesn't come close to any of the first three.
Enjoy your trip. We were there with them in Ireland this past month. Geoff is very quiet. Don't be shy about engaging with him to chat. The band members are AWESOME. Talking with them was one of the highlights of the trip!
Wait a minute hold on here who pays for this there’s more to the story so you pay like big money for a package trip deal with these people how does this work, I was getting the notion Geoff and his wife was paying for all this
@@sambell385 … the package we bought was for a couple (single king size bed) and tour, ran about $5500 for both my wife and myself… but we have to buy our round trip flight. Totally something like $8500 with two round trip tickets
The interviewer was really good at making him feel confortable. It sounds like he's in a good place. Saw him in Arizona a couple of years ago he did all of Rage which has always been my favorite. QR's first 4 albums are among the best in Prog-metal of all time 🎸❤️👍🏼
@@CassiusMorrisOfficial good job. Never heard of you. I’m like how does this guy get to sit down with legends like this. But you’re doing it. You asked a lot of great questions. And let the artist break it all down In detail. I enjoy interviewers who don’t dig for dirt and get into their actual craft , skill , talent , etc. kudos to you.
I'm 57 and been a Queensryche fan for years. from the queen of the Reich EP until he left Queensryche. he is the only lead singer that has ever brought me to tears with his singing.the way he can convey emotions through the tones of his voice is absolutely incredible. and the first time I saw Queensryche they opened up for Twisted Sister in Boston 84or 85
Im a similar age to you, they were a part of my growing up and the journey into adult hood. I managed to get to see them live in London 1997 after following them for so long from a 3rd world country. What a time to grow up, Judas Priest, DIO, Manowar, Savatage, Queensryche, Helloween, Accept. The golden age of metal.
Great interview thank you. Geoff signed all my Queensryche albums in November 1990 in Nottingham on the “Building Empires” tour. A really nice guy who seemed humble and was great with the fans. 34 years ago and I still remember it. Being kind to people leaves a lasting impression. Awesome singer too. 👍🏻
This guy Cassius is by far the best interviewer i have ever seen. He is artist centric and also asks questions fans and fellow artists really want to hear answered. Not your usual redundant questions. He knows the artist and gets right to the humanity of it. Well Done. Subscribed.
Agreed. He doesn't ask the cookie cutter questions (how did the band get together? Who were you're influences?). We could see Geoff pause to to contemplate on his answer.
I can't stress enough how underestimated he is. he is an absolute genius of a singer and a songwriter. Roads to Madness- still gives me chills to this day after 20 some years.
Excellent interview with Geoff. My first Queensryche show was 1985 Warning tour when they opened for Kiss in Sacramento. My friends and I were already fans since the EP and were blown away hearing The Warning for the first time. Rage for Order brought it to another level for a lot of us. I was fortunate to see all of those tours and into the 2000s. Good to hear Geoff is doing well and found that heart problem before it became something irreparable.
The Ep, Rage For Order, The Warnimg, Operation:MindCrime, Empire and. Promised Land are all 1 million percent perfect albums from beginning to end. Also, I was at QUEENSRYCHES’s 1st show in Portland Oregon at age 12 and saw every tour up to Promised Land. QUEENSRYCHE made those years of my life so much better. No one on this planet was a bigger fan than I was.
I’m a huge fan of Geoff. I saw them in Greensboro N.C. a long time ago. His voice is phenomenal,especially live. I don’t think he stopped moving around the stage the entire time concert. Great memories
Even though I am a guitarist by trade, this dude has always been one of my primary influences since 1984, which was when I was lucky enough to happen upon Queensryche's first EP. Awesome interview.
Wow! What a fantastic interview. Asked great questions and really helped Geoff feel comfortable enough to share a lot. Best interview I've ever seen with him. Nice job!
I remember hearing Queensrÿche the first time they were ever played on KISW in seattle when i was a teen and soon as the voice sounded off, the first thing i said to my buddy was these guys are going to be legendary, they are and im feeling old lol
Great interview. First time seeing a Geoff Tate interview and I'm a longtime fan. The part where Geoff spoke about talking to the president from their record company and how Empire sold so well,...speaking for myself, Operation Mindcrime was so great that I had to hear what was coming next. Operation Mindcrime, to this day, is my favourite album. Back then I was buying cassettes and I had to buy 3 because I listened to it so much it wore out the tapes. I also advertised it like crazy and got a lot of people I went to high school to buy the album. I also remember the first time I heard it. I had been seeing their name in Columbia House advertisements and I wanted to check them out. My brother just happened to be travelling to Boston to see a Red Sox-Blue Jays baseball game and I asked him to get me all the Queensryche cassettes he could find. He got home at 5 in the morning and had gotten The Warning and Operation Mindcrime. I slipped Mindcrime into my walkman right away and was blown away by what I was hearing. It still gives me goosebumps to think about it. Such a great album and I'm a big fan of Geoff Tate.
Myself and two of my friends bought one of the original vinyl EP's of their demo. Still have it in fact. I knew instantly they would be great - and they certainly were
Great interview brother. Geoff's voice talking is as awesome as his singing! So powerfull and soothing. Thanks Geoff for all the incredible music! Cheers.😊
I thoroughly enjoyed this interview and agree with everything he said. He’s correct about the healthcare system in the U.S., and about pesticides, fertilizers and growth hormones in food. Eat organic guys. It really makes a difference. Glad he’s doing well. I listened to Queensryche from the very beginning. Saw the Warning tour in a club! Met them as well. Got a chance to be in a radio station with Chris DeGarmo. I still have the interview and a radio ID that was done for me and my ex. Wish nothing but the best for Geoff. He influenced so many singers.
What a great interview. I'm glad to see Geoff is doing well and enjoying life like he should. He was very thoughtful and insightful with his comments. What a great guy. I'm even more impressed beyond his obvious impressive musical talents! With age comes wisdom and Geoff showcased that in the best way a good man can.
I got to meet Geoff once at the Englewood PAC in New Jersey. I asked how he was feeling in terms of his throat. He is a pleasure! I hope he comes to my area soon. I’m 60 + still love him!
Great interview, really good to see geoff in this kind of light. Been a huge queensryche fan my entire adult life, geoff was an absolute monster of a singer back in the 80's. Queensryche created some of the best music I still to this day deeply adore and am in awe of.
A rock LEGEND! I saw him live with Queensryche (The Warning tour) way back in '84 (or was it '85... i'm older and my memory is shot now) at L' Amour rock club in Brooklyn, NY! My jaw is still on the ground there somewhere...
It's funny how that works. I also noticed this watching an old interview with Brad Delp of Boston. His voice isn't as deep as Jeff's, but still much deeper than you would think it would be.
Always been an inspiration, as well as QR.. then after the split ... hard .. Like choosing your one kid over another LOL. Geoff will always have a time and place that is so massive. Adelaide South Australia cant wait to see you back !! 👍👍
Great interview. Geoff is not only an incredible singer, he's an incredible human. Been a Queensryche fan since early on. I had a copy of that original EP prior to them getting signed. Saw them open for KISS at Nassau Coliseum when The Warning came out then at a small club in Queens, NY during the Rage For Order tour and various times after Mindcrime came out.
How do you know he's an incredible human? My best friend just asked for his autograph at Tower Records in Mountain View, CA... Geoff said to my friend Chris..."Give me a blowjob and I'll sign what you want" Geoff was his hero...Chris was shocked and not gay so he walked away without an autograph.
Great interview. First time on the channel. Nice to see thoughtful questions and the subject given ample time to answer, without interruptions. Excellent job!
Great questions Sir. Great answers from Geoff. Cool trips he does as well. We will check those out. My personal opinion is that Empire is their most epic record.
He’s seems like he’s in a good place in his life and at peace at where his world resides. Considering his life has been a roller coaster if you will, he is very calm and has found his zen!!!!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great interview. It’s always interesting to listen to Geoff, he’s obviously more than just a Rock n’ Roll singer/musician, he’s a thinker, and his answers on other topics are obviously based on a solid foundation of logic and humility. As for those celebrities who fear revealing the human side of themselves, perhaps due to a lack of substance, Geoff clearly gains additional kudos for being the admirable man he is. Glad his heart surgery went well and that he’s collating a bunch of music to break out to the public. Truly great news.
Queensryche has been my go-to band since I was 14 years old in my residency of Burien Washington. I was born and raised in Seattle Washington and absolutely love Bellevue W.A. and Queensryche Geoff Tate....Chris DeGarmo, Eddie Jackson, Michael Wilton, Scott Rockinfield 🎉One amazing band🎉❤❤❤❤❤🎉 GREAT INTERVIEW 🎉😊WOW I have been through Montana multiple times and it is beautiful..yet...believe it or not..!? The eastside was wild ..Bikers party's 🎉and more in Billings 🎉😂🎉❤I am assuming Geoff and the gang in the western part of the big sky country ? Beautiful scenery 👌 for certain 🎉❤
Saw them in Green Bay WI on the Operation Mindcrime tour. They were openers for Metallica And Justice For All tour. Still the best show I have EVER seen. Man I miss the 80s
So Cassius I was finally able to finish watching this interview. It was nice to see someone asking interesting questions, AND following them up and getting clarification when needed. The one consistent thing about Tate that really bothers me however, is that he NEVER admits any culpability in what happened with the band members, and more importantly WHY it happened the way it did. Additionally, I am in possession of all of the sworn affidavits from the band members as a result of the 2012 legal proceedings, and can say Tate either has selective recall, or is a borderline narcissist. That said, excellent interview dude!!!
Mr.tate wish i can meet u someday.u r my huge inspiration as singer.i always afraid to sing high because i am baritone.but u always prove that u can sing amazingly high even though u r baritone if we put work on it.god bless u and thank u for interview.
Seine Stimme klingt schon beim Sprechen wie Musik in meinen Ohren. Ich bin sehr dankbar, dass es ihm wieder gut geht und kann es kaum erwarten, ihn im September in Essen live zu sehen. Geoff ist einfach ein Meisterwerk!
I would shit my pants if I could go hang out with Geoff on his outings...Wow that's so cool he does that... I am at awwww for many many years, truly big part of my soul and heart his music for 40 yrs?...I've seen him twice than goodness, he is the best vocalist of this time. Thank you Geoff for all the music you've gave your loved , Neacha in Alaska
I had open heart surgery in 2020 right at beginning of covid. Mitral valve repair with parts. Same at first I thought I was just getting older. Woke up in middle of night twice and it was like drowning. I bolted up and everything went to normal. One morning got up and let dog out and next thing I knew I was in back of ambulance. Passed out in kitchen. Scary stuff. Glad he is feeling better.
When it comes to reuniting with old members, the real answer he responded with was "We gave that a great run, it was successful, we did great things, it's time to do other things now.
He spit on them because he was mad they no longer wanted his wife and daughter in charge of the band's business affairs (eg. merchandise and mgt, respectively.)

His voice was amazing 🤩
I can listen to Geoff talk about Operation Mindcrime every day for the rest of my life and never get tired of it. Best album of all time.
It was good, but Rage was better
@@rentedtux1883 Rage is excellent, but a little too glam by comparison for me. I prefer the theme and bite of Mindcrime, and even over that, Livecrime.
Agreed! Such a creative masterpiece! Saw them perform the entire album live in ‘91.
I love Mindcrime, but think The Warning is, the best, Queensryche Cd. Mindcrime/ep/The Warning are definitely the best. ...By far.......!! I think Rage For Order is just...good, but doesn't come close to any of the first three.
Geoff
Again never does interviews
Hearing him speak.
He is very deep and introspective.
I totally appreciate hearing him speak from the heart.
🙌
Many interviews available on RUclips...
He does some
On the deep, introspective and appreciation part, yes.
Geoff seems so happy and at peace now. It's really great to see...and his voice shows the results because he's been singing great live.
My wife and myself are going to Ireland with Geoff in September.. to say I’m excited would be an understatement.
Nice!
Enjoy your trip. We were there with them in Ireland this past month. Geoff is very quiet. Don't be shy about engaging with him to chat. The band members are AWESOME. Talking with them was one of the highlights of the trip!

I saw Queensryche in concert on their debut self titled four song album. They were awesome. I’m glad Geoff is living a great life.

A really nice guy who seemed humble and was great with the fans. 34 years ago and I still remember it. Being kind to people leaves a lasting impression. Awesome singer too. 👍🏻
Still haven't ever found a single singer that can touch his voice
This guy should be doing voice-overs for audio books
😂🙌
and ASMR voice so soothing and relaxing lol
I could listen to him speak, and sing, all day
He would kick ass at this

Love ya Geoff , operation mind crime is one of the greatest albums ever recorded.
Nice job interviewing, asking good questions and letting Geoff answer
This guy is one of the most important voices in music.
Tate is a very articulated interviewee. Good questions. Thans for posting this!
I’m a huge fan of Geoff. I saw them in Greensboro N.C. a long time ago. His voice is phenomenal,especially live. I don’t think he stopped moving around the stage the entire time concert. Great memories
Wow!! Geoff is so fantastic!
Operation Live Crime and his first solo record are my absolute favorites!!! Great interview, Thanks!! ❤
Ashleyryche

Great interview Cassius !
Geoff is awesome I hope he's doing well. Operation mindcrime was incredible and I was born in the 90s! Super talented guy.
🙌
Myself and two of my friends bought one of the original vinyl EP's of their demo. Still have it in fact. I knew instantly they would be great - and they certainly were
Geoff Tate and QUEENSRYCHE had 6 perfect records from beginning to end. From the EP to Promise Land.
Great to listen to him talk,
all the best to him.
😎
Great interview….and as always Geoff is so open with his comments…..thank you for sharing
🙌
Great interview brother. Geoff's voice talking is as awesome as his singing! So powerfull and soothing. Thanks Geoff for all the incredible music! Cheers.😊

I absolutely love this low key interview because Jeff seems so comfortable and I always appreciate his intellect and honesty.
One of the best interviews I have heard in a long time, thank you!
A rock LEGEND! I saw him live with Queensryche (The Warning tour) way back in '84 (or was it '85... i'm older and my memory is shot now) at L' Amour rock club in Brooklyn, NY! My jaw is still on the ground there somewhere...
Amazing how a very deep talking voice could hit such high notes
It's funny how that works. I also noticed this watching an old interview with Brad Delp of Boston. His voice isn't as deep as Jeff's, but still much deeper than you would think it would be.
Agree, but go watch an interview with him from say, 1990 vs. Now. His voice has really deepened a lot over the last 20 years
Great to see and hear Geoff doing well. God bles him.
Always been an inspiration, as well as QR.. then after the split ... hard .. Like choosing your one kid over another LOL. Geoff will always have a time and place that is so massive. Adelaide South Australia cant wait to see you back !! 👍👍

How do you know he's an incredible human?
My best friend just asked for his autograph at Tower Records in Mountain View, CA...
Geoff said to my friend Chris..."Give me a blowjob and I'll sign what you want"
Geoff was his hero...Chris was shocked and not gay so he walked away without an autograph.
Saw them on their Rage For Order Tour opening for Iron Maiden Powerslave Tour as my first concert when I was 17 in NYC ❤
A very calm talented young man asking decent questions. Love it. And Geoff Tate comes across as a very smart guy.
Great interview Cassius!!
Thank you brother!
This is an incredible interview. So many questions answered! Thank you so much Cassius Morris!
great interview...he's been a huge inspiration on my voice for years!
Great interview. First time on the channel. Nice to see thoughtful questions and the subject given ample time to answer, without interruptions. Excellent job!
Solid interview - you've got some talent at this. A good question always precedes the time to hear the answer fully. Great stuff.
Geoff sounds great these days, he is hitting higher notes again..
Great questions Sir. Great answers from Geoff. Cool trips he does as well. We will check those out. My personal opinion is that Empire is their most epic record.
He’s seems like he’s in a good place in his life and at peace at where his world resides. Considering his life has been a roller coaster if you will, he is very calm and has found his zen!!!!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Geoff is always a good interview. I know he’s known for his incredible singing, but his speaking voice is awesome too 😎
🤘
I was at their original tour. It was like nothing one had ever seen. The power and uniqueness. The skill, intensity and precision.
Great interview. It’s always interesting to listen to Geoff, he’s obviously more than just a Rock n’ Roll singer/musician, he’s a thinker, and his answers on other topics are obviously based on a solid foundation of logic and humility.
As for those celebrities who fear revealing the human side of themselves, perhaps due to a lack of substance, Geoff clearly gains additional kudos for being the admirable man he is. Glad his heart surgery went well and that he’s collating a bunch of music to break out to the public. Truly great news.
Good interview. Love Geoff and his music. Awesome interview for a young guy
Wow, incredible interview. And tate is a very tasteful guest as i always figured he was .well done
You sang beautiful songs that made us all believe in something bigger. Thank you

What a wonderful interview!! You asked great questions!

The one consistent thing about Tate that really bothers me however, is that he NEVER admits any culpability in what happened with the band members, and more importantly WHY it happened the way it did. Additionally, I am in possession of all of the sworn affidavits from the band members as a result of the 2012 legal proceedings, and can say Tate either has selective recall, or is a borderline narcissist. That said, excellent interview dude!!!
Thanks for watching!
Wow man Geoff is really born for sing and talk. 🙌
The GOAT!!
Geoff is an amazing singer and also a great human being with a lot of intelligence. Great artist and great interview. I'm a big fan 👍🏻
Great interview. 😎👍 Geoff Tate is incredible and I can't wait for some new music. 🤘😎🤘

Love Queensryche.....his voice was always one of the very best in that genre. Great band
Fantastic interview, u let him speak , Geoff local puget sounder here thank you brother love ya keep it going and be happy.
Seine Stimme klingt schon beim Sprechen wie Musik in meinen Ohren. Ich bin sehr dankbar, dass es ihm wieder gut geht und kann es kaum erwarten, ihn im September in Essen live zu sehen. Geoff ist einfach ein Meisterwerk!
This interview was super fun and very informative 👍
The first Queensryche show was Wednesday, June 29, 1983 opening for Zebra in Portland, OR at the Paramount.
First there was Rush 2112, and then came Queensrÿche Operation Mindcrime. 2 Iconic albums! Concept albums at it's finest!
I would shit my pants if I could go hang out with Geoff on his outings...Wow that's so cool he does that... I am at awwww for many many years, truly big part of my soul and heart his music for 40 yrs?...I've seen him twice than goodness, he is the best vocalist of this time. Thank you Geoff for all the music you've gave your loved , Neacha in Alaska
I had open heart surgery in 2020 right at beginning of covid. Mitral valve repair with parts. Same at first I thought I was just getting older. Woke up in middle of night twice and it was like drowning. I bolted up and everything went to normal. One morning got up and let dog out and next thing I knew I was in back of ambulance. Passed out in kitchen. Scary stuff. Glad he is feeling better.
😳
know how that is~~~~ lot of folks out with these ticking time bomb issues not even remotely aware what's happening to them.
Hoping to catch one of his shows. His music inspired me to take up music myself.
Geoff Tate is way ahead of the world
Very enjoyable. I love Geoff Tate
Love Geoff Tate! Saw him play acoustically with Bumblefoot one time Absolutely mind blowing.
Your a legend Cass \m/
Great Interview keep up the good work 🙂
