Geoff Tate

Geoff Tate has yet to play his first gig with his newly created Queensryche lineup and already he's down one member. Tate revealed earlier this year that former Megadeth and King Diamond guitarist Glen Drover would be part of his version of the band, but Drover has just announced his exit.

There will continue to be two Queensryches, at least for the time being, as a Washington state judge ruled Friday (Oct. 19) in favor of Geoff Tate, allowing the singer to perform with his own version of the group after being ousted from his former band earlier this year.

Geoff Tate has been battling with his former Queensryche bandmates and putting together a competing band lineup. He’s also releasing a solo album, and has revealed the cover art and track listing for ‘Kings & Thieves,’ which is set to be released Nov. 6 through Inside Out Music.

Geoff Tate is putting aside his Queensryche legal issues long enough to continue his career with the new solo collection, ‘Kings & Thieves,’ arriving on Nov. 6.

The battle for Queensryche rages on. After being booted from the band earlier this year and then engaging in legal battles with the former members over the rights to the name, former Queensryche singer Geoff Tate has posted the lineup for his version of the band. This situation is turning into a soap opera.

Queensryche and former singer Geoff Tate continue to work out the specifics of their parting in court. The latest issue to come up centers on the band’s websites and social networking hubs.

The mudslinging in the Geoff Tate vs. the rest of the members of Queensryche lawsuit continues. Remaining ‘Rychers Michael Wilton, Eddie Jackson and Scott Rockenfield want to continue on as Queensryche with a new singer, while Tate is trying to stop them from using the name. The remaining members filed a response to Tate’s motion to deny their plans, and now, Tate filed another reply declaration l

Queensryche have been subject to one of the most venomous splits in recent history. We’ve all heard rumors about former vocalist Geoff Tate feuding with the other Queensryche members, but a new statement from guitarist Michael Wilton details a violent and chaotic scenario, which seems to have led to Tate’s exit from the band.

It’s hard to imagine Queensryche without singer Geoff Tate.

Less than a week after being replaced by Todd La Torre, longtime Queensryche singer Geoff Tate has signed a worldwide record deal with InsideOut Music. Even before parting ways with Queensryche, Tate had a summer acoustic solo tour planned as he continued to work on a solo effort.

After recent rumblings of tension and rumored incidents, veteran rockers Queensryche have parted ways with singer Geoff Tate. They’ve announced that Crimson Glory’s Todd La Torre is their new singer and have put their current tour dates on hold while they work on revised routing.

Though the members of Queensryche have stated that they are still a band and plan to continue even though the new project Rising West recently launched, it’s clear there’s still some tensions left between the members and singer Geoff Tate.
