Yeah, but Rockenfield it seems like Rockenfield isn't playing anymore. LaTorre did all the drums on Queensryche's newest album.

It seemed like there were tracks for background vocals since only one guy had a mic, but you could tell he was singing live and sounded pretty darned good.

@@MichaelHolmgaard agreed. What he needs now is a good producer. Sascha Paeth knows how to produce metal voices. Dump Jason Slater and Kelly Gray, they did nothing but drag Tate and Queensryche down, then again that could be at Tate's behest. Degarmo is doing that acoustic project with his daughter and flying planes, but we could hope he gets bored and contacts Tate. I think an original band reunion would be good too. LaTorre is pretty good too though, I prefer the albums with him over anything else since Hear in the Now Frontier, but if we could get a reunion of Tate and Degarmo or even the whole band it would be cool to see a final round
