Just watched some live vids of him and if it is really live he sounds pretty good...

Did he spit on his drummer?

He's been off and on through the years. It would have probably been fun to see his angry-guy-drinking-wine-on-stage shows.

Just watched this from last month, looks pretty live to me:

He does sound great. The way he strains to hit what sounds like the top of his range at 2:56ish is almost certainly live.

Todd does it better.

To be fair, Todd is 15 years younger than Geoff.

Todd is good but it’s karaoke, Geoff had the original pipes and wrote Mindcrime.

Nah. Todd sounds like Todd. He can sing like Tate. Sometimes he sounds reminiscent of Bruce Dickinson.

Geoff hasn't had original pipes or original ideas in decades.

Todd is appreciative of his job. Tate lost his job due to being a fucking asshole.

I originally thought he was lip syncing the QotR scream...but I pulled up several vids from the last year...they seem to be slightly different and some better than others...so it appears he's pulling it off live...

I concur.

From the YouTube clips, he appears to have gotten some of his mojo back.

Fuck Todd. He uses chorus effects live and Tate doesn't.
