A Promised Land QR Jam

Kevin Scurlock — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 02:01:16 +0000

Directly from the lips of Geoff Tate: “This video clip is from 1994, Promised Land Tour. We were in England appearing on a TV show promoting our current single – Disconnected. We had just finished filming the video with Kevin Godly, of 10CC fame. Any way, we were sound checking and the sound techs needed a little more time. I can’t remember who suggested playing Waiting on a Friend, but one of us played the riff and everyone joined in and we played until the producer was ready for us to play our song. It actually sounds really good considering none us had ever played the song before. I love little improv moments like these, I wish we had collected more over the years. I love that guitar Whip is playing.”

Two big new rumors to pass along today. The first is that the band has already begun work on their new album, and get this, it’s nearly done being written. No word on a direction, theme or possible release date.. but nonetheless, all those details are being worked on as we speak.

But as we wait for more information on the new album, rumors of a Spring/Summer tour are starting to heat up. What we can tell you is that due to the success of the two cabaret shows in Seattle, the band has decided to take it on the road. No dates to announce just yet, look for those soon. In the meantime… this might help get y’all excited.

From Whatever Comes

Kevin Scurlock — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 00:13:22 +0000

Episode 0020 – “From Whatever Comes” – Geoff Tate explains the meaning behind Track #12 on American Soldier.

So, before getting into this a few things that need clearing up….

First, “From Whatever Comes” was the original name of the song “The Voice”. When this was recorded the band had not changed the name yet.

Second, I apologize for the shortness of this video. It’s what the band submitted and we wanted to round out the complete American Solider track-by-track.

“I don’t know how to explain From Whatever Comes… I don’t know how….”

Episode 0019 – “Home Again” – Geoff Tate explains the meaning behind Track #11 on American Soldier.

“So the song Home Again is about those feelings of separation that people feel when they’re away from their families; and they’re in a situation that’s dangerous, with that question, “will I make it back home again.” I can kinda relate a lot to this being on the road, being away from my family….”

Episode 0018 – “Remember Me” – Geoff Tate explains the meaning behind Track #10 on American Soldier.

“There’s a track on the record called Remember Me, which is a ballad style song. It’s about the conflict a soldier experience, not just on the battle field, but also in their own relationships; being gone from their families, their loved ones… sometimes up to 6 months at a time. It’s a very stressful experience for some people ….”

Episode 0017 – “Man Down!” – Geoff Tate explains the meaning behind Track #9 on American Soldier.

“There’s a story I was told, a solider came back from the Vietname era / conflict. He described being really unconfortable with staying in one place. So he packed up everything he had in a car, and spent several years just driving… drove, 12 hours a day, until he ran out of gas ….”
