Just saw this on Facebook...it's gonna get ugly.

We are being denied access to our own facebook page and website (meaning Queensryche) so please spread the word for us about Rising West. We will be on KISW 99.9 this Thursday around 4:30 Thank you for your support and we hope to see you at our shows!
Is the son in law in this new band?
Former son-in-law, and yes, apparently....
And that ass douche Tate is sending me emails about his solo dates and wine tasting events that do not have any kind of "unsubscribe" link on them, so he has stolen Queensryche's email list as well.
Looking at this thread it occurred to me that that in my mind QR has always been the abbreviation for Quiet Riot, not Queensryche.
"Don't want 'em to get you goat, don't show 'em where it's hid." - David Lee Roth
Be interesting to see if Tate and his wife try and get a new Queensryche together.
That's what usually seems to happen these days.
i heard chris degarmo is a pilot now...probably just as well...what a circus
Who has control of the name? I'm leaning towards Tate if he is controlling the bands websites. This is just gonna suck for both sides. You can't have a singer as powerful & unique sounding as Tate and then change & be the same band. As for Tate, he went from mildly-cool rock star guy to full flaming weirdo so he won't keep the fan base either.
Maybe for the best?
Perhaps they aren't doing that well right now. But in 5 years they can reunite and tour and it will be some big deal everyone just HAS to see?
Yes.
This fucking sucks though.
Tater can take a fucking bottle of his fucking "whine" and cram it up his ass sideways.
That's telling him...
Who?
Oh that Tater guy.....
Nahhh....he's yesterday's news, lol.
You going to the West Rising show?
So is it official? Seems like a big clusterfuck with nothing really known at the moment. Update?
Drove by this today. Had to turn back to snap a photo.
then I searched & found this. (place holds maybe 550 people if sold out)

I have never really given Queensryche a try.Where is a good place to start?
I really love you baby, I love what you've got
Let's get together we can, Get hot
That's pretty cool man. I'd be curious to know what the pay is for a gig like this. How much band members actually get a check for. How much Tate will get a check for. I assume it isn't much but similar to how big contractors take jobs even if they know they will lose money.......because they lose less money taking the small job than not working at all. Keep the machine rolling type thing.
So has this "break up" been in the works for a while? (prior to the fight that started this thread) How much time does a backing band need to gel together & learn all the songs he will play?
If your friend is bored before the show lemme know. I know the best coffee shop here. I'll hook him up - on me of course. Roth Army hospitality is world wide!
Operation Mindcrime is absolutely sensational. From start to end. It's similar to The Wall in that the whole album tells a story. Maybe a bit deep for a 1st Queensryche listen but stellar.
I would suggest Rage For Order. But also check out these songs on youtube....
Take Hold of the Flame
The Lady Wore Black
Queen of the Reich

The latest. It seems as though every word of this is carefully phrased.

It almost sounds like there may be some wrangling over the future use of the name going on.
I have more sympathy with them than say Van Halen or Guns N Roses.
These people are not going to be independently wealthy, they won't be more than a little beer money from royalties and they are in their 50s probably with no pension.
The only decent money to be made is by playing live as Queensryche.
I think in a year or two when Tate finds himself playing to 300 people in a bar in upstate NY he'll maybe wake the fuck up.
But I think with an ego the size of his that it will take some time to sink in. In his mind he probably was being held back by those other losers who aren't bright enough to grasp his vision and now he's free to begin conquering the world............................................. ...................like Chickenfoot.
I can understand the Queensryche infighting though. I mean they are fighting over hundreds of dollars here.
you guys suck.....meh, kinda blown out of proportion. not that big a deal.
