That first album is kickass

I would say start w/ the self titled and go chronologically.

They don't have a bad album IMO.

Agreed!

Sucks, nothing even close to me. That's a strange tour. Looks like just US festivals and a few in Europe. We need a proper tour.

I’m seeing them at Boston Calling. Last time I saw them was years and years ago at Webster Hall. I would love to see them at a venue that small now.

That New York show is the first headliner to pop up so I'm hoping like hell it means more to come

Josh has had a crazy time with his wife and the child custody issues, plus the fallout from the face kick... maybe he's just not up for a proper tour?? Especially now that he's been granted sole custody of his children.

Oh I didn't know that. I'm sure that has some impact on him.

Back on the Clockwork tour, they were hitting big venues. One night they were at the Barclays Center, and then the next night, inexplicably, they played the Richmond National, which is my local club. It holds less than 1500 people but they brought in their arena speakers anyway. Holy crap, what a show. I'll never forget that night. The whole place was a pit when they played Sick, Song for the Dead, etc. It was so awesome. I still have no idea how the National landed that gig.

2017 for the Villains tour, they played a 7k+ capacity arena in Boston, and a 1700 or so capacity theater the next night in Portland.

That Portland show was one of the greatest I've ever seen any band perform.

If I Had a Tail
Monsters in the Parasol
My God Is the Sun
Feet Don't Fail Me
The Way You Used to Do
You Think I Ain't Worth a Dollar, but I Feel Like a Millionaire
No One Knows
First It Giveth
The Evil Has Landed
I Sat by the Ocean
Smooth Sailing
Domesticated Animals
Make It Wit Chu
I Appear Missing
Villains of Circumstance
Little Sister
Sick, Sick, Sick
Go With the Flow

Great set, but look at this sucker. Lost Art and Better Living through Chemistry, Song for the Dead, Feel Good Hit... so cool.

mfc2006 · April 2023

Those setlists are fucking awesome. Here's the setlist of one of my all time favorite shows...by any band. They flat our brought it to a small outdoor venue (2500) here in KC. Royal Blood opened and killed it as well.

More or less what I saw on the ...LC tour as well.

Such a great f'ing show. https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/queens-of-the-stone-age/2013/agganis-arena-boston-ma-33c47425.html

I'm pissed they're playing Boston Calling... it's too much $ and too much of a hassle for me to get in there for one band, but I'm hoping they swing back through in August around Forest Hills. If not, I'll have to catch them when they support the new album, which is in the works AFAIK.

Seen them 8 times going back to 2002, and can't wait to make it double digits.

Nice! I've never seen them play Headache, that I can remember. I saw that tour, with Royal Blood opening. They were great too and fit the style of the show perfectly. It was at the Anthem in DC.

I've always wondered why they hardly ever play 3&7's anymore. I looked and it's been played only 12 times in the last decade.
