Queensryche to rock Nokia Theatre tonight

QUAEF0_x007E_1.jpgProgressive rockers Queensryche, fronted by master showman Geoff Tate, always put on a bigger-than-life show. These guys understand that the line separating heavy metal from arty theatrics is mighty blurry. So they up the ante every time, pretty much since unleashing 1988's ambitiously conceptual Operation: Mindcrime. And let's not forget the pop radio breakthrough, 1990's masterful power ballad "Silent Lucidity." While the group's commercial heyday is behind it, Mr. Tate and company haven't remained idle. No sir. In 2006 they released Operation: Mindcrime II (a sequel) and last year came Take Cover, a collection of fave songs from other artists such as Pink Floyd's "Welcome to the Machine," the O'Jays' "For the Love of Money" and the Police's "Synchronicity II." Also, in 2007 the DVD Mindcrime at the Moore, chronicling the tour where the band performed both Mindcrime discs, was released.

Catch Queensryche tonight at 8:30 p.m. at Nokia Theatre, 1001 Performance Place, Grand Prairie. Ticket are $29.50-$49.50 through Ticketmaster.
