1. Neue Regel [Queensrÿche - Live in Montreal 1986/09/24]

This show sees Queensrÿche opening for Ozzy Osbourne. Fortunately for us, it was caught on video in its entirety, and the quality is pretty good considering the age. The audio however had a lot of noise, and is somewhat distant, as the camera was filming from the balcony.
The show itself is great. The band's performance is strong and tight, and Geoff's voice is still in great shape, although he does sound a little tired in a few minor spots. The audience seems to be into Queensrÿche's set as well, which always adds to the atmosphere of the show.
Overall it's a great show that every fan should give a spin. Enjoy!

*Re-uploaded after 4 years:* I've adjusted the video levels, de-noised the video and EQ'd the audio as well to remove noise. Enjoy!

Awesome job as Always!! Thank You!!

I hope people recognize he was brilliant in concert as he was in the studio

[@johnmcmann7385]

I saw this tour in Portland Maine and was already a huge Queensryche fan but was taken to a different place when they did this song. Absolutely blown away…

[@laddeveritt8933]

One of the greatest singers in metal history at the absolute height of his powers.

[@daronolenus3911]

If you can hear it!!!!!! I'm being a smartass. Why can't people HEAR IT😟😟🤔🤔 I think most people are truly tone deaf. Just my opinion

[@Bigtime1998]

Geoff hits the notes exactly how they are on the album - or even better. Freaking amazing.

[@brokl26]

The 80s spoiled us. Proof.

[@joeschmoe233]

Being a teenager in the 80's was fun as hell. A big part of that enjoyment was the music.

[@alspencer3826]

Except for all the damn ballads rock bands put out in the 80's, I agree with you. Mtv actually played music, pretty cool tv shows, I thought miami vice had it's moment, and in general just a lot more fun. There was a lot less stress being a kid, you weren't forced to have a sex change, use the opposite bathroom, and you didn't have to worry about offending someone with every other word that came out of your mouth. As a young guy, you could go to the mall and chase girls, you didn't have to do it online!

[@joeschmoe233]

@@alspencer3826 LOL true

Scott's drumming on this album was on another level.

That final note he hits in this song sends chills down my spine! One of the best singers of all time!

@@garybusy6102Father Time is a bad motor scooter, and he gets us all, but in his day Tate was a monster.🤘🏻

[@toddajohnson82]

I saw this when they opened for AC/DC on the Who Made Who tour. They were the most technically proficient band of the era. They were the epitome of what a tight band was. I would love to go back in time to see this show again.

[@AJeziorski1967]

Damn, this gives me chills ... First time I ever saw the band was on this tour, in London, as support for Bon Jovi of all things. I became completely obsessed with Queensryche and with Geoff's voice in particular ... Now, almost 40 years later, I'll be seeing Geoff with his current band in Nuremberg this coming Sunday night :)

[@brandonholmes8655]

Rage For Order is such a great album and they're KILLING this live!!!!

[@travitoburrito10]

[@pmac972]

The greatest song ever written.

[@karlv7000]

Yes, my friend, well said!! The Pinnacle of Progressive Metal!!!

[@mrbungledisco]

Probably my favorite QR song. I know Geoff had the pipes back then, but it is still amazing to see him pull this off live.

[@MIlesTeg1000]

My GF watches "The Voice" I typically can't stand it...but my dream is to see someone on there sing this song, nail it, and blow peoples' minds.

[@seanl67]

I saw them on this tour in NYC. When I first heard this song on the record, I never thought they could pull it off live. I was dead wrong.

[@davec3901]

Not only that, it seems like a very unusual choice to open the show with but it works perfectly.

[@raymondgirardtan4978]

Damn godlike voice... "...now it's not a dream ANYMORE..."

[@shelleyluiting1002]

Its a good job then you aren't going to get old, isn't it? That way you will still be able to do all the things you do now and still do them well. Geoff might not be able to hit all the notes he did when he was 20, and he even admits he has trouble sometimes but he has always done a bloody good job every time I have heard him. As an older singer, myself, you have your off & on days. His voice is still the dream if you choose to sit and really listen to it........

[@darrenweis113]

I have seen GT in various forms live dozens of times for over 30 years, never saw him put on a guitar until here.

[@benitokamelo252]

He played some chords during the solos of "Neue Regel" and "Walk In The Shadows" in most of the shows during this era.

[@jeffallen3382]

I turned 16 that day... What a great year to be a teenager!

[@vickikellis2086]

Wilton and DeGarmo... chills! Thank you for this video! Great memories

[@skassebasse7944]

Masterpiece, great backing vocals, and Geoff on guitar 😊👍

[@MachineHeadDissent]

That voice!!!🤙😎🤘

[@scottphillips9287]

Just came across this - awesome! Kind of amusing to see them with those guitars though . . . much more 'image' guitars to convey the heavy meatal look than the ESP guitars they used, endorsed, loved and kept for the next 4-5 albums because they worked well for them. I guess part of everyone is all about the image when younger, but I'm glad they had the substance of great musicianship and song writing as well. One of my favorite bands.

[@MVboys2]

Excellent version of the song. Geoff nails it. I think the first two months of the Rage Tour might be Geoff's best stretch of shows.

[@Crackhitler68]

And I had the privilege of seeing them twice during that span :-)! It was freaking incredible ..

[@kingdiamondfan4032]

Just absolutely brilliant .

[@shannonpeters889]

saw these guys in Sioux Falls, SD on this tour opening for AC/DC in '86. I didn't appreciate their contribution to the music world then, but looking back.. what a time for this band to shine!

[@Davidepia_70]

Masterpiece!

[@romanoviedo1976]

This is incredible, many many thanks from the other corner of the world, Argentina! Been a fan of QR since the beginning, and this is the holy grail for me... Tate and the whole QR at his peek! Gracias amigo!

Cyberpunk was starting to become a thing in the Pacific Northwest and Queensryche seemed to capture the feel of it in Rage for Order. Miss the '80s so much!

[@dibber43]

Wishing Tate could still sing like this. Sucks gettin' old!

[@Barbarian646]

I wish they used the intro at the start on the album.....

[@laddeveritt8933]

Every opening act Ozzy ever had blew him off stage. It's strange and sad.

[@alanndrake2619]

Nah because I saw Motley and Waysted open for him in Feb.84 and Accept open for him in May of that same year. As where all of those bands kicked ass none of them blew him off stage..

[@laddeveritt8933]

Odd you say that because I saw Crue blow him off the stage on 1984. Shout at the Devil/Bark at the Moon.

[@kingdiamondfan4032]

I would not go that far Motley Crue didnt put on a better show then Ozzy on Bark at the moon but Queensryche yeah you got me there .

[@louman2342]

Absolutely I saw Ozzy in 86 and Metallica was insane the only time I saw Cliff no contest

[@QuikdethDeviantart]

Ozzy is not about vocal virtuosity. He kicks ass for the way he interacts with his fans and he always has first class talent behind him… but Geoff has a special place in my heart… long story but I met him and he’s a great guy!

[@heathbarker3004]

When Ozzy realized I have to top that.

[@swatson28]

@@trondsi lol best comment ever

[@billrhodes5603]

When I see this comment my response is: "Hear in the Now Frontier", totally composed by DeGarmo, and a total failure as a QR album. I am not knocking Chris, people's taste as goals change after all, but I think the band's career as actual METAL musicians was over after Empire. Quite a shame, I still listen to EP, The Warning, RFO, OM, but rarely listen to anything produced after that.

He played keyboards live for Best I Can, and he played sax in Promised Land live too. That was an amazingly cool production.
