Why Geoff Tate Is Playing ‘Operation: Mindcrime’ in Full on Tour

Released in 1988, Operation: Mindcrime became one of Queensryche’s most successful and critically acclaimed albums, spawning the popular singles “Eyes of a Stranger” and “I Don’t Believe in Love” and eventually going platinum. It paved the way for the Top 10, triple-platinum Empire in 1990.

When Tate was fired from Queensryche in 2012, he sued his ex-bandmates for wrongful termination and both parties briefly toured under the Queensryche name. In 2014, both parties reached a settlement that granted Michael Wilton, Scott Rockenfield and Eddie Jackson the rights to tour as Queensryche, while Tate was allowed to perform Operation: Mindcrime and its 2006 sequel, Operation: Mindcrime II, in their entireties live.
