Queens of the Stone Age

[RatBastard]

I have two tickets and there is at least a small possibility that I won't be able to go.  If not they will be in the ticket exchange at face (plus the tickets.com crap).  All depends when I go bak in the hospital for surgery #4 on my broken arm!

 MARK LANEGAN made a surprise appearance with the QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE last night (February 14) in MILAN.
 
 Despite the band announcing almost a year ago that Lanegan would �??officially no longer be playing�?� with them, the former Screaming Trees man sang co-vocals on eight songs at the Transilvania Club.
 
 The show also marked Queens Of The Stone Age�??s official return to live duties. They had performed earlier this month at a secret gig in Los Angeles as The Clocks, but the Italian date was their first in a year under their own name.
 
 The band continue their tour throughout the month, and play two shows in a night in London on March 3.

A letter to ya'll from Joshua Homme
 
 Dear everybody,      
 
 First I'd like to say thank you to all well wishers. Your words & thoughts were printed out for me to read & you know what, it meant alot to me. It was just cool to see sweet things instead of bottles of meds that were not meant for recreation. You guys are alright. I'm trying to think of something cool for all who still got the tix for the shows missed. I'm thinkin a free vinyl "45. I just wanted to say thanks for understanding. I feel better already    
 
 second, I am sorry to confirm recents rumors about the E of DM cancelling from our tour. The reasons for this tragic cancellation are financial, family oriented & depending on your view, sexual. This discouragingly shitty news wasn't brought to my attention until wed night & remained uncorrected, even after evasive action, as late as fri morning. I wanted nothing more than to watch the Eagles of Death Metal dip the boogie in the woogie on every night of this tour, so please don't blame me for their cancellation. If you accuse me of daring to stop the E of DM, then the terrorists win. So if you think I did something eaglenegative, you love terrorism & support terrorists. So, I blame you back. let's see you get off your couch & do something to help, you know it all. There are only two positives in this whole eagle free rock tour:
 
 1) We can tour w/ the Eagles on a later, LONGER, US tour. I think that's damn good news!
 2) The crazy desert Other white meat, Sean Wheeler, will be leading his band Throw Rag into a headfirst leap into your musical hearts & minds instead. You will not be bored with Throw Rag up your ass. They are classic & rip'roarin', hell yeah!
 
 Either way, Let's make the best of the rest...                             or you can cry, but not here.From all of Us here at Queens & Eagles, we say, "drink wine & screw"

Lullabies to Paralyze is finally sinking in. I was impressed with the first few songs initially, then disappointed with the rest, but now I've got to say it's a really good record. Not great, but solid. Kind of like all 3 of their previous records rolled into one.

Agree w/ that
 
 I'm looking forward to hearing "Someones in the Wolf" live... <img src="http://www.dimpleandasmirk.com/_images/avatar.jpg" alt=" - " />

 as far as without nick.. to me, with a more casual interest in the band, it was less noticable than i thought it'd be.  compared to last time i saw them, there were more songs with mark singing... i suppose someone that was a bigger fan might have more of an issue with no nick, but the band sounded fine and played well and the show overall sounded a whole lot better then last time they played there. way too much bass in the mix last time..

Saw the Queens at the Norva LAst night, they Kicked Ass! Can't wait til Sunday to see them here at the 9:30 club. I've never been inside, can anyone tell me what it looks like, since this sight doesn't have photos or any shit like that. What's the standing room like? Give me details

[Monchie01]

yea so its two levels.
 over all the club holds around 800ish people.
 
 Main Floor is by the double doors on your right - Right after you pass the Ticket/ID
 
 (yea, if ur over 21 get your ID ready, u'll need it after they take your ticket. lol)
 
 They are two bars in the Main floor. and they are across from each other.
 
 They also have a balcony. To get there after the
 ticket/id area turn left and climb up the staircase. that leads up to the balcony and usually the VIP section in the balcony area.
 
 Upstairs theres two bars.. Coffee Bar and a regular bar. Also where the regular bar is at there is Coat Check. =P
 
 --- okay across the double doors (entrance to the main room) its called the "back bar"  its basically a place where u can chill and sit down, get drinks while waiting for the Talent to come on.
 
 I think i pretty much got everything covered.. lol.. let me know if u got anymore questions =P
