Queensrÿche - Live in Hoffman Estates, IL, September, 2007 Review by Greg Olma Queensryche stepped out of the studio to be special guest on the second leg of the Heaven and Hell North American Tour. Being in the studio must have given them the itch to go out and play live in front of an audience because the original boys from Seattle looked and sounded great.

Queensrÿche - Live in Chicago, IL, September, 2006 Review by Greg Olma I was lucky enough to catch one of Queensryche’s 3 shows in Chicago. Billed as the complete Operation Mindcrime saga (Parts I and II) with actors, this was going to be a night of Broadway, Queensryche style.

Queensrÿche - Live in Merrillville, IN, October, 2005 Review by Greg Olma Queensryche was continuing their "Back with One Foot in Hell" with a stop at Star Plaza in Merrillville, Indiana. The best thing about this tour was that it was a complete evening of Queensryche music.

Queensrÿche - Live in Chicago, IL, June, 2005 Review by Gary Hill One certainly can't complain about Queensryche doing the same set year after year. In fact, if you see The Ryche on more than one tour, the odds are you will see very different sets.

Queensrÿche - Live in Chicago, July 19, 2003 Review by Gary Hill Queensryche made their way into Chicago touring their new "Tribe" album, arguably their finest disc in years, and the quality of that album seems to have brought a renewed vitality to the band. Indeed, they were in great form as they worked their way through material both old and new.

Queensrÿche - Live in Chicago, November 17th, 2001 Review by Gary Hill During my interview with Geoff Tate he said that they were going to try to do the live album set on this tour. They did not completely fulfill that promise, but indeed served up quite a healthy set from all phases of their career.
Queensrÿche - Live In Milwaukee August 26th, 2000 Review by Gary Hill Many old school Queensryche fans have not been overly pleased with their recent recordings and have been hoping for a return to the older harder sound. If this concert was any indication, the band is listening.

Queensrÿche - Live in Chicago, May 2009 Review by Greg Olma I have seen Queensryche many times on many tours. The one thing that you can always count on is a show that will be different from any of their other tours.

Although I have been a fan of Queensrÿche since the week the 1983 debut was released, I have only purchased about half of the albums released in the past two-thirds of their 30-year history.
I have been a long time Queensryche fan, and while I still enjoyed their later releases with former vocalist Geoff Tate, the new material from their self-titled record (and the material I have heard from Condition Human) has really revived my interest in the band.
Queensryche has been making good on their promise of rebuilding their brand these last few years. They started by releasing two great albums and then they proceeded to tour the hell out of them.
