Geoff Tate - Take Hold of the Flame-Gagarin, Athens 17.11.24

[@MrVelocity111]

He still has my vote as one of the best vocalist ever old age takes our best days but he has set a super high bar

[@LiveMetalRoar]

Well said

[@getnmyn]

He's still a boss. I loved them in the 80s and realized later in life that they were ahead of their time. Degarmo and Tate wrote some timeless songs

[@joejawson5264]

Great crowd. It would be fun to see Geoff perform in a different country.

[@LiveMetalRoar]

Check out the channel. There are more videos showing how crazy the Greeks are about metal.

[@bufo_regulares]

his voice still great!

[@LiveMetalRoar]

He can still nail the high notes

[@MrVelocity111]

@@LiveMetalRoar agreed he is my local homie Here hope he comes home soon

This song is forty years old. It is one of the most difficult songs to sing in the history of rock. Geoff is still out there doing it and doing it well. To those saying anything negative, please post your video of you singing this song so we can see where your judgement comes from and if it’s warranted. This song was written by/for a twenty five year old so at 65 adjustments have to be made.

Well said my friend

Es extraordinario, la voz de este hombre 😮....a su edad

[@insurancedaddy]

He's but a shell of his former self. To his credit, like Halford, he's creative enough to keep the spirit of the song alive, albeit a completely different melody and tuned down a whole step.

[@getnmyn]

Geoff is in rare company with Rob and Bruce with guys that still bring it with their voices. We all lose a little when we hit the 50s, but he still does better than 99% of the singers from our era (80s). I would love to meet the guy one day, though I doubt it'll ever happen.

[@perfektspace]

Hope that guy standing 1 inch from that wall of subs has ear plugs in.

[@Stocktonlad774]

Backing tracks being used for the 2 guitarists vocals I'm afraid

[@rickylex2735]

wrong

[@LiveMetalRoar]

Nope

[@imeddiewilson1572]

Wow. That age and still hit the notes. Difficult to tell if one doesn't know how to "hear" it correctly. Though true it seemed a struggle for most of the track c'mon folks, he's mid 50's now I think.

[@LiveMetalRoar]

He is 65

[@imeddiewilson1572]

@LiveMetalRoar nothing time doesn't touch. He's still fantastic.

[@careful...Icarus]

Take Hold of The Oxygen Tank brah.

[@riplead]

🤣

[@CC_Marauder]

Will always admire GT but this band has ZERO edge compared to the original. Zero.

[@LiveMetalRoar]

There is no point in comparing this band with Queensrÿche. Geoff has put together a great band. You should see them live.

[@rickylex2735]

this destroys TURDREAK
