GEOFF TATE Brings 'Operation: Mindcrime — The Final Chapter' Tour To Madrid

23 June 2026  ·  Tour News  · By Scorpio

Fan-filmed video has surfaced of GEOFF TATE's entire June 16 concert at Sala ReviLive in Vicálvaro, Madrid, captured during the European leg of his "Operation: Mindcrime 2026: The Final Chapter" tour.

The former QUEENSRŸCHE frontman is using the run to bid a definitive farewell to the material that made his name — above all 1988's landmark concept album "Operation: Mindcrime," widely regarded as one of the greatest metal records ever made. The Madrid setlist leaned heavily on that era, opening with "I Remember Now" and "Anarchy-X" before tearing into "Revolution Calling," the title track, "Speak," "Spreading The Disease," "The Mission," "Suite Sister Mary," "The Needle Lies" and "Eyes Of A Stranger."

Tate balanced the "Mindcrime" material with other QUEENSRŸCHE classics including "Breaking The Silence," "Empire," "Jet City Woman" and "Take Hold Of The Flame," before closing the 23-song set with an encore of "Do You Still Believe?," the ballad "Silent Lucidity" and the early anthem "Queen Of The Reich." The full-show footage has since been circulating among fans unable to catch the European dates in person.

The tour arrives hot on the heels of "Operation: Mindcrime III," which Tate released on May 3, 2026; its lead single "Power" featured DISTURBED bassist John Moyer. Billed as "The Final Chapter," the trek is positioned as the last time Tate will perform the "Mindcrime" saga in full — a closing statement on the work that has defined nearly four decades of his career.

In a recent interview, Tate reflected on first discovering his enormous vocal range at 18, recalling that he found he could "sing really high, like Geddy Lee" and "very low, like Joe Cocker" — the instrument that would soon make "Operation: Mindcrime" a genre touchstone.
