QUEENSRŸCHE: New Audio Interview With GEOFF TATE
July 24, 2010On July 20, Rustyn Rose of Metalholic.com conducted an interview with QUEENSRŸCHE frontman Geoff Tate. You can now listen to the chat in two parts below.
QUEENSRŸCHE's current Queensrÿche Cabaret tour is being filmed for future DVD release. The trek, which kicked off this past Thursday, was previously described by the group as "Teatro ZinZanni meets Cirque du Soleil, with the band performing their hits and never-heard-before selections accompanied by go-go dancers, burlesque dancers, drag queens, a juggler, ballet dancer, trapeze artist, a contortionist and others. Definitely a fun-filled evening like no other full of freaks and shrieks!"
QUEENSRŸCHE's twelfth studio LP, the epic concept album "American Soldier", was made available from Atco/Rhino in March 2009 for a suggested list price of $18.98 (CD) and $9.99 (digital). The ambitious album encompasses a dozen songs inspired by numerous interviews with veterans conducted by Geoff Tate, the group's singer and chief songwriter, who was intent on telling their story using their words. After speaking with soldiers who served in various conflicts — from World War II to Iraq — Tate turned their firsthand experiences from the frontlines into an unflinching musical examination of the life of a solider and the consequences of war.
