On tour to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the iconic and revolutionary release of 1988's Operation: Mindcrime Geoff Tate and his version of Queensryche delivered a top notch performance true to the spirit of the record. With an all star band line up featuring guitarist Kelly Gray, keyboardist Randy Gane, dummer Brian Tichy, guitarist Robert Sarzo and bassist Rudy Sarzo, all with multiple big name rock band legends in their resumes, the band delivered an amazing rendition of each song that had the crowd in the almost packed house singing along word for word. Sass Jordan filled in on stage for the role of Sister Mary in the epic track Suite Sister Mary, the tragic yet magnificent opus which marks the end of act one of the album, as well as sitting in on a few other songs to close out act two. There are many fans who are divided amongst the two different Queensryche lineups but you owe it to yourself to catch this epic performance if you can and enjoy the beauty of one of the greatest metal concept albums ever produced. It truly defines the very meaning of a rock opera.
