How to Handle a Rope / The Queens of the Stone Age Thread

Pretty sure he was high as fuck, but it doesn't justify.
What an asshole, I hope he gets sued.

[Birds in Hell]

Good lord, why the fuck did he do that?!

FOR ROCK AND ROLL MAN.

This is among the worst reasons to have done anything.

And yeah, fuck Josh Homme.

[Jammer XCI]

Dude has been a wasted mess most of the new tour, being a drugged out violent lunatic isn’t a good look when you’re pushing 50, see recent footage of Marilyn Manson live for another example.

But yeah that was a huge dick move and he deserves to be taken to court for it.

When I saw them a couple months ago they were great live, but I get the feeling it was compensation for the night before when he drunkenly trashed the other members’ gear and cut the show short.

[CopperTom]

WTF. What a dick. He stopped an altercation between fans at the MSG show I was at, but assaults a female. Doesn't make sense.

[Strat]

he just issued a huge half assed bullshit apology on facebook too.

Fuck.

Last night, while in a state of being lost in performance, I kicked over various lighting and equipment on our stage. Today it was brought to my attention that this included a camera held by photographer Chelsea Lauren. I did not mean for that to happen and I am very sorry. I would never intentionally cause harm to anyone working at or attending one of our shows and I hope Chelsea will accept my sincere apology.—Joshua Homme

Why did I read the comments, I should never read the comments.

Why did I read the comments, I should never read the comments.

I made a comment But yea.....

The internet sucks.

[LetMeSleep]

I read a few comments and now I want to turn all devices off.

[Strat]

Fuck the comments. The comments are exactly what we all expect from comment sections.

THe real problem is the "apology" .

Blaming it on lighting and equipment? C'mon.

[LetMeSleep]

"Hey I'm still the kind of tool who kicks over equipment and acts like a spoilt brat but I never would kick a person."

he's a tool.

[LoathedVermin72]

I have no problem with equipment destruction, but I have no idea how he could have thought a person holding a camera was equipment? That doesn't make any sense.

[LetMeSleep]

I have no problem with equipment destruction, but I have no idea how he could have thought a person holding a camera was equipment? That doesn't make any sense.

His own equipment, sure. But not random stage equipment.

[LoathedVermin72]

Sometimes casualties are unavoidable.

[LetMeSleep]

I'm sure it was a blistering, transcendental moment of rock anarchy.

Burn your walking stick.

[KurtLeon]

Picture before the kick.
Defenitely on purpouse.

[LoathedVermin72]

Good shot tho

[LetMeSleep]

He seems happy.

[VinylGuy]

Maybe this is what Feet Dont Fail Me Now is about?

[verb_to_trust]

This is terrible but this would be easier to shrug off if the new music wasn't so forgettable.
