    Hurricane is a Kyuss song, the band Josh was in before Queens. 
    Great, thanks. Think I need to delve into Kyuss. Any suggestions on where to start? 
    Yes you do need to hear Kyuss. Blues for the Red Sun is a classic album

    Super-bummer of a show tonight up in Madison, WI.

    Outdoor show, great weather, amazing opening set by Royal Blood, a stellar long setlist on paper. Then Josh went off the rails, they cut 7 songs and 40 minutes off the show and walked off after 80 minutes. 

    Heartbreaker. Drove 6 hours after a shitty day for that.

    That's interesting, seemed weird for them to end like they did.

    Someone on Reddit said that they saw Josh being carried to the tour bus after the show. And apparently he told the Edmonton crowd a few nights earlier that he was playing against Dr's orders.  He's been hurt for awhile, it seems (shit, he was limping like crazy in Portland, ME back in October).  Which isn't really an excuse.  Sure, you'd upset people having to reschedule dates, but at least give them a full show.  Sucks, man

    Edit to add......some people asked the guy who saw him carried whether it was injury related, or was Josh just fucked up.  He never answered.  Some others said the band sounded fine (although you could clearly tell he was favoring his leg) and didn't think it was alcohol/drug related.

    He seemed a little messed up during the show, and I think he may have mentioned he was already drunk.  If he's on meds and drinking, that kinda makes sense.  Not that it's ok or anything.

    After 3 or 4 songs, he said "I'm so shit-faced already" but they were ON that whole time.

    Right when Domesticated Animals started, his mood seemed to sour and he just started substituting "fuck" for lyrics.  A few songs later I looked over at my brother and he made the downhill/crash & burn motion, though I just thought it was usual QOTSA sloppy drunken good time playing.

    Man, I hope he's OK, but it was a real downer.  At least I get a structured, stable (hopefully) U2 show tonight.

    Josh has been on a shitty run this year. I think he hurt his back earlier in the year, so I wonder if this is related to his already apparent alcohol problem coupled in with scripts now too. They need to get off the road and he needs to get his shit together. I love their music, but definitely would not want to be someone holding tickets right now based on how unpredictable they have been.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Saw them in Portland in January and he limped off after the main set, but came back for the encore and finished no problem.  I think you're right, if he's been mixing painkillers and alcohol (and whatever else) for years now, he is doing serious damage to himself.

    As to your last sentence, I have tickets to see them in Barcelona this summer.  Not a good position.

    This was the other really weird moment, the whole "You think I don't try? you think I don't take this seriously?" thing.  I've seen them 7-8 times on this tour and his stories/comments have been the same every time, but this was weird (not my video):
