KYUSS 'Reunion': Audio, Video Footage Posted Online
January 17, 2006Audio and video footage taken at the Dec. 21, 2005 QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE gig at the Wiltern LG in Los Angeles, where John Garcia, singer of QOTSA frontman Josh Homme's previous troupe KYUSS, joined QUEENS on stage for three songs from their influential hard-rock band's catalog, has been posted online at this location.
"Now I want to play you something really old," Homme announced after returning to the stage following the main-set closer, "A Song for the Dead", according to MTV.com.
With guitarist Troy Van Leeuwen, bassist Alain Johannes, keyboardist Natasha Shneider and drummer Joey Castillo doing their best to keep up, Homme and Garcia ripped into "Thumb", off their 1992 desert-rock masterpiece "Blues for the Red Sun"; "Hurricane", from their '95 swan song "And the Circus Leaves Town"; and the slow-jam fan favorite "Supa Scoopa and Mighty Scoop". Homme was all smiles as he dug into the forgotten low-end riffs — most of which he wrote in his teens — and the acerbic Garcia was on his best behavior, turning his back to the crowd at junctures where he'd usually give them the finger.
