    It was really surreal to meet him, he was super nice to all the fans! You guys got an amazing setlist in London wish I could have gone to that show as well, I saw the videos of Straight Jacket Fitting would have been crazy to see that live, lot of Era Vulgaris mixed in as well

    I was super happy to hear some songs from Self-Titled. Someone was also shouting for If Only as well and Josh acknowledged it but chose Sick,Sick,Sick over it which was still great. There were a ton of people with signs and luckily Josh noticed the one for Mexicola which was probably the best song of the night in my opinion was really wanting to hear that or I Appear Missing.

    Speaking of signs, Josh acknowledged the signs in London and basically said "Fuck the signs, I don't wanna read" lol. Straight Jacket Fitting was amazing as was Josh's walk through the crowd. He was in a super good mood

    I hate to ask this, but it’s been a few years since I’ve seen them

    Is QOTSA the kind of band to cancel a show last minute due to low ticket sales?

    The Portsmouth VA show has very poor sales, and I have been burned at this venue more than once before with bands cancelling due to low turnout (Smashing pumpkins cough cough)

    Definitely trying to go but a little hesitant to buy a ticket at the moment

    IDK how much of an indicator it is, I think Portland, ME last August had regular (non-resale) GA tickets available right up until the show.

    seems they like a smaller crowd hence the smaller venue run....

    I saw them in Bangor, Maine in 2014 and there were tonnes of seats left and alot of space left on the floor.  I know they discounted tickets for the Halifax and Moncton shows a week before the shows.  Both venues were very full.  I'd say you're good!  Enjoy the shit out of them...they are soooo good...

    I think he duets with Trent Reznor on Era Vulgaris. Great tune. Fun Machine too. Era Vulgaris is super underrated. I like it more than Lullabies, but I always felt like I was in the minority on that one.

    I agree with EV > LTP, and I also agree, we seem to be in the minority, at least from what I've seen in the QOTSA subreddit.
