I think I am officially a psycho Queensryche fan. Yes, I have all of their CDs. All their DVDs. I go see them whenever they come to Chicago, but have also driven to Milwaukee, Merrillville, and Fort Wayne to see them. But I just did something that takes the cake.
I just bought wine futures of Geoff Tate's Insania Wine.
"Created by Geoff Tate of Queensryche and Three Rivers Winemaker Holly Turner, Insania is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Petit Verdot, 15% Merlot and 5% Malbec. This wine will not be bottled and shipped until February 2009 so Insania is only available by advance purchase at this time. Production is around 200 cases." (Further reading at http://neufutur.com/?p=3216)
I read this and don't think twice. I gotta get me some. I like wine a lot (and really dig a lot that come from the Pacific Northwest) and I like Queensryche and Geoff Tate a lot. This is a perfect marriage of two awesome things, bottled for me to savor.
So four bottles will be coming my way next year. I'll report back. I wonder what Geoff Tate wine will taste like? I'll open one to drink for sure, but will likely end up with one that I never uncork.
Yes, I'm a psycho fan.

I'm sure this wine will be better than Vince Neil's. Maybe on par with Maynard James Keenan's?
Truthfully, I liked Vince Neil's quite a bit. I gave a blind tasting of it to people that know a lot more about wine than me, and they thought it was good as well. I haven't tried Maynard's, but I should do that.
While we're being honest...I was just taking an opportunity to compliment Maynard and crack on Vince. I've tried neither.
The whole thing is kind of silly. I really wonder how much Geoff and Vince had to do with the wine. My guess is nothing. But Maynard I hear is pretty into it...
Yep. he's very hands on with his wine. His vineyard is in Arizona where he lives.
Is this the most comments we've ever had on a post?
i think so, yes.
Just to make sure, this one should put it over the top...
If that one didn't, this one will.
People are going to think that there is so much going on in this post and will just have to check it out - only to curse us once they are forced to read this blabber. Double digits, baby...
Unless Vince Neil is reading this...I think we've got no reason to worry.
I think everythng you have talked about is delightful
