Queens of the Stone Age add 8 dates to winter tour, including Austin
Calling all Teenage Hand Models, Little Sisters, and Carnavoyeurs. Queens of the Stone Age are coming to town.
Joshua Homme and his bandmates have added eight new stops to their “The End is Nero” tour, and that includes Austin's Moody Center on Friday, December 8.
They'll also stop at Houston’s 713 Music Hall on Saturday, December 9, and Irving's Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory on December 10. British rock band Spiritualized will open.
QOTSA is touring behind its latest album, In Times New Roman. Released in June, the album went to number one in four countries, including six charts in the U.S. — Vinyl, Independent, Alternative, Digital, Rock, and Hard Music album sales charts. Hailed as a return to the band’s hard rocking roots, it deals with such light-hearted subjects as Homme’s divorce from Distillers founder Brody Dale.
The tour launched on August 3 in Michigan and has the band criss-crossing the U.S. before heading to Europe for the month of November.
Judging by intel from the band’s recent stops, fans should expect a setlist that pulls from QOTSA’s entire, 20-plus year history, including fan favorites such as "No One Knows," "Little Sister," and "A Song for the Dead."
Tickets go on sale Friday, September 22 via livenation.com. Various pre-sales are also available.
