Queensrÿche

Why do people go to concerts expecting to hear the band play the exact Greatest Hits album they were listening to in their car on the way to the show to "remind" themselves of the songs they like? On January 13th I went to see the Progressive Metal band Queensrÿche play in Wendover. The two men sitting behind me and my friends apparently didn't know the band continued making albums after 1990's Empire. They kept yelling, "Play the old shit!" In the first hour, of the 90 minute show, the band only played 3 songs recorded before 1994's Hear In The Now Frontier album. I loved that they did that, when I saw them last year they played most of their old hits and little new songs, this time it was reversed. If you ever have a chance of seeing Geoff Tate sing live, do not miss it! He sounds EXACTLY like he does on recording, it is amazing.
