HAHAHA!!!!!

Damn, like I said at M3 a few weeks ago, G.T. needs to grow some hair back! He can be one of the coolest dudes around, but this Mr. Clean look isn't helping him out... combined with his onstage moves, he totally comes off like he's batting for the other team now.

(corrected spelling of 'Rocklahoma' in thread title)

My old guitarist is actually touring with him for his acoustic shows. He's a monster guitarist.

Tell him to toss a bottle of baby oil out to G.T. while he's performing next time, and see what he does with it.

Rumors are beginning to fly that QR have broken up (MetalTalk.net).

No official confirmation yet, of course, but I'd say it's just a matter of time, given the abysmal performances by GT at M3 and Rocklahoma. I saw QR when they toured with Don Dokken about 4 years ago and their show (and GT's performance) was stunning!

What hair? I don't think he'd look good onstage with a horseshoe.

QR used to be an amazing band....but that ended in the 90s. They've been running on fumes ever since.

The other four guys have formed Rising West with the singer from Crimson Glory.

Get this: they're only going to play Rychesongs up through Empire. Smart move! And they'll write originals.

The band's publicist is denying breakup rumors, but who knows?

Wonder if G.T. really pulled a knife on another bandmaster in Brazil?!?

Unless it's total B.S., here's a pretty detailed account of the knife pulling...

Now THAT is cool...Though I do like "Promised Land". The songs on that album just don't fit with anything else they've done, though.

Apparently the stories about pulling a knife in Brazil are true, I have a friend who was telling me about all the reports in the Sao Paulo newspapers, cops were called to the hotel and everything.

Maybe Geoff watched The Warriors one too many times and figured acting like a Turnbull A.C. was the way to go.

He tells the crowd they suck yet he hasn't released a good album with the band since Empire in 1990 (Mindcrime 2 was OK, but not great).

'Ryche hasn't been GOOD, or relevant in 20 years....move along people.

I'd rather listen to members of Snakeryder, w/ Kevin Cronin....errr....Michael Eden on vocals than Geoff Taint.

That's not very smart. He's lucky he didn't get a beer bottle up side his head.
