Geoff Tate Accused of Threatening To Kill Queensryche Bandmate

The frontman assaulted Rockenfield and guitarist Michael Wilton before warning bassist Eddie Jackson "You're next," then later regretted he hadn't hit Wilton hard enough, says Lundgren in a court submission.

The drama took place after the band's performance in Sao Paulo, Brazil, in April � an event which led to "Operation Knifecrime" rumours circulating online, alleging Tate had pulled a blade on the other members of Queensryche.
