    Kicking the shit out of a little kid doesn't make you a man.

    then why talk all big about it? seems he put himself in a lose lose situation by opening his mouth. like i said he should have just told secruity to kick the kid out. instead of acting like some ape-brained high schooler

    the man is a douche, he called out a kid.

    sounds like he probably deserved to have things thrown at him too, cause i bet this isnt the first time he acted like this...

    To be fair to the guy, he was playing a fucking rock show with a 102 degree temperature. Getting shit thrown at him. And the kid had his back turned to him when he called him out at first, so it would have been hard to guess his age. Not a good combination for rational discourse with a 12 year old. :p I don't think he should have thrown the bottle at him, but I don't think Josh cares what we think.
    Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.
  • This confirms my view that Josh Homme is an arrogant twat. :D

    If that was me, I'd sue him for EVERY future EMEK QOTSA print...
    He was out of line, yelling faggot like that, even if the kid threw a bottle at him, no need to put down homosexuals!

    This dude looks and sounds like Kiefer Sutherland's psycho cousin or something.

    i'm not bothered what makes a man to be man like all of you here :D what i do know is that little cunt learnt his lesson, and this is exactly what teenage boys/guys understand.

    Agreed. I know the kid was wrong from throwing stuff, but having security guards hold him while he throws a bottle at close range kind of makes Josh look like the pussy.
    If it looks like one, walks like one and smells like one....

    Here's more fun with Josh vs. a douchebag:

    that song was great! I've been meaning to hear Songs for the Deaf a long time now because of Lanegan, kept forgetting though.

    If it was a glass bottle he threw then it's low, no matter how old the target.

    Wow, what an asshole. That rant was such a prejudiced, chicken-shit, dipshit thing to do. And throwing a bottle at someone after just going on a rant against bottle-throwing doesn't help, even if the kid did throw a bottle first.
  • At least they kept playing. I can think of a couple bands that have totally stopped shows because of dickwads like him.

    I've seen a few of these flipout clips on youtube by Josh Homme and he comes across as kind of a turd. Its easy to insult someone when you have a mic in front of you and a bunch of lemmings who would love to suck your cock are cheering you on.

    I'm sure in most cases the person being targeted might be in the wrong, but its kind of a classless way to handle it.

    Not sure what the guy is like but he comes across as a major prick.

    when i saw QOTSA here at the end of april, it was the first show of the small canadian tour the did and shit was getting thrown up at them the ENTIRE NIGHT. shoe to the basspalyers head, show to josh's hand. They literally didn't say ONE thing about it. weird. They must have caught josh and a bad day.

    he's badass though. everyone has seen the live dvd, of the kids throwing shit at him? he gets called out on that one too.

    I don't condone what the kid did, but Homme really comes accross as a classless A-hole in this. Real easy talking like that to a skinny little emo kid. It's too bad they can't do a festival with Slayer so we can see just how badass he is.

    Homme needs anger management therapy.

    A 30 something year rock star going on a tirade and then assaulting a skinny, defenseless teenage boy...Jesus.

    Yeah and it's easy to keep throwing shit at a band when you don't think you're going to get caught. Whilst his reaction is a bit OTT and in all reality he shouldn't have thrown the bottle at him (or called him a faggot), I can imagine the frustration when he's trying to battle through a gig with a 102 degree temperature, and some kid thinks it's funny to throw shit at him.

    I think his tirade and getting them to pull the kid out of the crowd, was more to shame the kid than anything. And rightly so, just becasue Josh is in a band deosn't mean people have the right to throw shit at them whilst they're playing. Bottom line, if you don't like the band, don't go and watch them. I remember a couple of years ago at the Reading festival, someone threw a full bottle of something at the lead singer of Panic at the disco, and it knocked him out cold. Now I'm not a fan of the band, but that's harsh - there were plenty of people there who did like the band, and they don't deserve to have the set ruined by some prick who doesn't like them.

    Well yeah, I do understand why people would find that funny because they are a pretty shitty band. But I can't think of too many jobs where you would have to put up with having shit thrown at you.
