You need 2 and 2 to put them together, and you don't have that. Again, it's pure speculation.
Speculating is someone one does on a message board, right? I don't see how you can say that if there was a legitimate offer from a promoter, that they would ONLY call Geoff. They'd have to contact the band as well and there is reason to believe that they did and the band said No. End of story. Geoff can't reunite with Queensryche if they don't call the band and say "would you reunite for X amount of money?" It's wheeling and dealing.
There's a great story from Glenn at Progpower about how he put together the PPIII lineup - the US debuts of Blind Guardian, Gamma Ray and Edguy. He lied his ass off to all of the bands. He had offers out to all three, with no response. He told one band that he had Blind Guardian (or Gamma Ray) even though they weren't booked. They said "holy shit, you booked them?" and they then felt like it was a legit festival, despite being in its third year. All of the bands fell in line and accepted the gig, simply because he was wheeling and dealing with their agents. What did he have to lose? After that year, the festival's reputation started growing.
Any promoter could do the same with QR. Call the band and say "Hey, Geoff's in. Are you?" All it takes is getting them to the table to hammer something out, and money and fan interest can do it. Hell, Iced Earth fired Ripper Owens in part due to the fans saying "we want Matt Barlow back," combined with some other elements. If the fans want it and promoters can sense it, there's traction there to make a buck.
Even if Geoff is full of shit in this instance, and no legitimate offer was made, he's getting the idea out there. As we all saw with Dokken, once a promoter puts enough zeroes behind a number, it becomes very hard to resist. Those guys did their gigs, took the money and Don went back to his prior band lineup for future Dokken shows.
QR could do the same. Then it's up to Todd to take one on the chin and let the band have their fun and then rejoin them after the reunion, or pull a John Bush and walk away because the band didn't stand behind him.
