In their prime, Queensryche was the best of the hard rock bands and Geoff Tate was the absolute pinnacle of rock vocalists. They blew me away the first time I ever saw them live in a small club in Queens, NY called L'AMours East. That was the early 1980's....Best show I've ever seen!

One of the top 5 concerts in my lifetime. It was the Empire Tour, but they performed the entire Mindcrime album in it's entirety. Geoff is amazing to this day, but back in the day he was a fcking God! Still a God. I also saw them on the Rage for Order tour. One of the best live bands EVER!

I saw this tour in Greensboro, NC in 1991. Great show. I'm 61 years old now and I can't tell you how fast 33 years has flown by. Wish we could all do it over again. Great shows and bands back then and 15 dollar concert tickets lol.

I was so fortunate to see this awesome line up in WV during the Empire Tour. They did many songs from several albums, including this one. The greatest thing about the concert was that they did Operation Mindcrime in its entirety. The best concert of my life!

Sad in some ways but at least I got to experience all of this live back in the day!! I was about 16 or 17 when the QR EP first came out & this band blew me away, followed up by thr MASTERPIECE CALLED THE WARNING! Thanks for the memories, thanks for all the recordings done years back & thanks for You Tube (You Tube is the candy store that guys my age did not have during our youth!!!). Also remember, Geoff just got done performing most of Operation Mindcrime before this killer performance of Roads to Madness. How did he still have his voice left? But he did & it was at its best. Such a hard song to sing even with lots of rest

Chills my friends Chills!! Such perfection

Just checked in to say hearing them play this twice live in 17 QR shows was immense.

It's actually easy for me, the first tune they ever wrote together - Lady Wore Black. To be so young and write an epic about such a group is chilling and beyond amazing. I always search for covers but they are so rare, I think I've seen one. Tells you a lot about how talented Geoff was at that time, no one dare tries because they'll probably fail and embarrass themselves.

STILL one of the best songs ever! I can’t remember the guy’s name who sat behind me in class in the 10th grade but I will always be grateful to him for handing me his Rage For Order cassette tape and telling me to listen to it. I’ve been a QR fan since.

Scott, Chris and Geoff are gone. Queensryche is touring still but it doesn't sound or feel like this. Beautiful.

This guy's where unstoppable in this era.

I had this album on a cassette tape in 1985., and Roads to Madness was interrupted at the end of 45'. I did not hear it in its entirety in years (I'd say probably until 1990). Still, one of the best songs ever.

For those who never had the pleasure of seeing this song, done in QR's prime; this song live was an incredible sight to see. This video while amazing, does not do this song or performance justice.

Great blast from the past. I saw this tour 5 times including a 3 night stint at the Long Beach Arena. What a great tour and great performance. I've been a fan since the E.P. Seen them over 60 times. Geoff sang the best on this tour and this song shows it. Too bad his voice isn't as great anymore as it was. Would love the see this quintet get back for one last tour and put their past behind them and kick ass like the old days.

One of the greatest metal songs of all time, period. This live performance of it was epic. Queenryche was this... Epic. The group that is now named queenryche is an empty shell.

1984 brought us The Warning. Best QR album by far. Iconic.

Most of this is memory now I've gone too far to turn back now I'm not quite what I thought I was but Then again I'm maybe more The blood-words promised, I've spoken Releasing the names from the circle Maybe I can leave here now and, o Transcend the boundaries For now I'm standing here I'm awaiting this grand transition The future is but past forgotten On the road to madness Times measure rusts as it crawls I see its face in the looking glass - stop This screaming laughter hides, the pain of its reality Black, the door was locked I opened And now I've paid that price ten-fold over Knowledge - was it worth such torment, oh To see the far side of shadow And still I'm standing here I'm awaiting this grand transition I'm a fool in search of wisdom And I'm on the road to madness Yes, I'm on the road to madness I'm awaiting endlessly Pounding rhythms echo me Won't you take me somewhere far beyond the void And still I'm standing here I'm awaiting this grand transition Maybe one day, oh I'll meet you, and we'll Walk the roads to madness Yes, we're on the road to madness Oh, I think they've come to take me I hear the voice, but there's no-one to see I can't scream, too late it's time Stay on the course to pass You'll never find the answer To a place where darkened angels Seemed lost and never found Scream to see the light of Forming figures fast behind you Lay the past in the wind to spin And your fate will sail beyond the open plains Sail with angels onward Live or die for the chosen one said Saber sights cast a spell behind you And they lock in all around Free the scene insider Never looking back to find why Ride a course till the end of time And you'll stand atop the gate Laying waste in a path recited Fighting force won't avenge the guided black wing Oh, electric might poses fright inside me Seeing light at the end of sight reminds me I've passed away
