Wow, there's more people in the photo than I would've expected.

Thought the same thing.

It was mentioned earlier that they're giving away stacks of tickets.......maybe that's got a lot to do with it.

Definitely. I also saw a lot of Tix for Vets which was kinda cool.

I don't know if I'd even go when given free tickets to be honest.

Just found out that Tate is playing in a relatively small, relatively new venue in my city's downtown area, tickets are only $20 and the show is on the 27th this month. Kind of blew me away as I never thought I'd see someone I (kind of) know play at that venue, though they did have TRAPT a few weeks ago.

Unfortunately, even if I wanted to go, I'm working that night til 10, and the doors open at 8, show at 9, so I'd be late anyway. If I was a bigger fan of his/QR's music, I'd probably ask if I could get off work early to go see him, but I'm not really their biggest fan. Just curious, though, how are his shows? Are they worth a $20 ticket to go see?

What has been seen can not be unseen...

But even more unfortunate is the fact that what has been heard cannot be unheard.

He really needs to just go balls deep into porn. That's where his passion is, he's a freak and he can't sing any longer so why not
take the cabaret thing one step further.

Whoa, I just remembered Geoff is playing a few minutes from my house tonight.  I can witness the tightness in person if I so choose.  Lucky me!

I bet Simon Wright has Todd LaTorre in his headphones.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

The Mr. T look is quite unbecoming.  A cucumber might help.

Saw Qryche twice in the 90s.  Went to see them in '03 with some band I had never heard of called Dream Theater.

Totally gave up on them after the 'Tribe' album.  And him.  Didn't even bother to see them open for DT in 2011.  What a train wreck.

I had the sound turned down low for my own protection. I knew that it was gonna suck before I decided to play the video, but I can't resist viewing the train wreck.

I thought he sounded alright in that clip, but then again my expectations were so damn low he would have had to really try to meet them.

He really did pack on a few pounds though. Those tight clothes aren't helping either. The real question is were they that tight when he bought them

As he gets older he puts on some weight, so far no problem because almost everyone has to fight that come a certain age. But why does he have to dress like that?
