Queens of the Stone Age - Like Clockwork full concert at The Wiltern - NPR Music

[@diogocanelas5927]

I Appear Missing is one goddamn ode to music. All hail QOTSA.

[@hackfraud7842]

i would compared to symphaty for the devil or starway to heaven

[@megadeuce2350]

+Tobias Gerdin word

[@maxmama99]

I've prepared a tattoo to pay homage to that song.

[@peteradams136]

QOTSA are my favorite band i do not get the crazed love for "i appear missing" .... it would lose to "the fun machine took a shit and died" in round one

[@vladimirkrupenko5400]

100%

[@alyinn_78]

I'm glad that I'm not the only one that realizes how special "I Appear Missing" is. This song has truly done some major stuff to my soul. It's heartwrenching and beautiful at the same time, which I think equals out to it being fucking EPIC. FUCKING. EPIC.

[@bpknows1]

that ending is crazy 🔥🔥🔥

[@TabethaAurochs]

Yeah, what you said. When I hear "Carnavoyeur" off the new album "... In Times New Roman," I sometimes get the feeling that song is having a conversation with "I Appear Missing" -as if to say: Having been on both sides, whatever that means... I'm here and not here, so now what?

[@damienstanton]

I do not think I have ever heard such a sad, beautiful, powerful rock song about dying as "I Appear Missing". Amazing

[@dalekay9ine]

This bassist is incredible. Him and Jon are a killer rhythm section. Best line up Josh has ever had.

[@OlinKreutzRules]

Ha. I don’t care if he was only drumming for 60 seconds but Dave Grohl is a marginally better drummer than Jon…..or anyone else for that matter pertaining to QOTSA.

[@TabethaAurochs]

​​@@OlinKreutzRulesDave Grohl disagrees with you 100%. He admits he "hits real hard," but lacks the technical genius of guys like Taylor Hawkins (may he RIP) and Jon Theodore. And this show's 11 yrs old... Mikey Shoes was 26, maybe? This most recent album and tour-holy sh*t what he and Jon Theodore are doing? Nobody else does it. They would if they could. 🖤🖤🖤 Edit: Remember that time Kurt sang and played solo rather than risk Dave screwing up because he had never once played with brushes before?

[@TabethaAurochs]

Best line up anyone is gonna find out here in these streets... Mikey Shoes has no limits, and he's a kid, and by kid I mean

[@nickparton5663]

The most professional, but not the best, and I'm saying that as a huge fan of Jon Theodore

[@tweek763]

"I never loved a thing until I loved you" is such a badass line

[@FatMaro]

Josh Homme. Great guitar player and consistently sings on key. That's a rarity now a days.

[@patricktheexpat]

No surprise, the guy is a rock-god.

[@XtremeKillah101]

He’s got some gnarly riffs

✨⚡️THANK YOU ⚡️✨

[@tjm8128]

Thank you. I never came Is now my favourite song

[@viridianarodriguez76]

The MVP of Christmas 2023 😅

[@TabethaAurochs]

I can still love you for doing this and you cannot stop me! 🖤🖤🖤

[@joebob3719]

If you mean that you have never heard of the queens of the stone age before then you're in for a treat.

[@RobinLinn]

Where Josh and QOTSA have taken their sound and their live show is fucking amazing. This show is a total rush. What I wouldn't give to see the sold out show at The Forum in LA this Halloween. Brilliant songwriting and the finest execution imaginable! Not since I was a kid listening to Led Zeppelin have I felt so outside myself while listening to a band. Damn did the desert breed greatness. From the rawest most outside to the most finely tuned refined musicianship.....I love where I live!

[@hazard_us132]

I was at this show. Which was the album release party. And i went to the Halloween final concert of the tour at the forum. My favorite band ever.

[@Rockstar66333]

might be the best version of "i never came" ever recorded. I like it better than the album. Not sure why that song isn't a staple in their live set. It's def one of their best.

[@alitolley7126]

check out belfort 05. you wont be disappointed

[@heikkikukke9665]

and Berlin 2005 live acoustic

[@chrispatton6448]

This whole concert is incredible, but I agree this is my favorite version of I never came. Flawless.

[@ryanbosch4557]

Jon Theodore is a BEAST. I really hope he's in it for the long haul.

[@RealMNeutral31]

Yes he is.

[@anttherubbishdrummer.8513]

Thankfully yes.

[@rando998]

u beast

[@ggthewhale]

He's good but the third best drummer in qotsa history

[@rubenaguilar666]

@@ggthewhale I know everyone is all over Dave and Joey, but I personally think Jon is the most technically skilled, versatile and tasteful. QOTSA still plays fast and loud, but it’s pretty noticeable that they’re focusing a bit more on precision and complexity which makes sense since they’re older and much more mature. Jon fits that shoe perfectly, I’m positive he would’ve done an incredible job with them in their earlier days as well, just like he did with The Mars Volta back in the day.

[@StudioScarecrow]

"I Appear Missing" will be thought of years from now as being classic QOTSA. What a powerful song.

[@10guitars]

Like all QOTSA albums , they take a while to grow on me , but the more I listen to the new songs , the more I am in awe of how Josh Homme creates music , he is without doubt one of the best songwriters on the planet at the moment .

[@FloydofOz]

What a raw talent. Josh consistently impresses me as he produces such interesting and unique music with each new record. He is able to retain his style and sound without making the same record over and over again. I've seen them in concert four times and will go again the first chance I get.

[@Dobblecheese]

The last 3 or so minutes of 'I Appear Missing' is one of my favourite musical moments for at least a few years

[@bpknows1]

💯

[@KubaG122]

I Appear Missing - stunning performance

[@LiliV0nSchtupp]

Thanks for posting, Simone! I was there, and the whole time I was thinking, "Everyone NEEDS to see this band." They get better with every album, and with every show. One of the perks of seeing a show in LA is that you never know who's going to show up. I about lost my shit when Alain Johannes walked out to open.

[@SimoneMessaggi]

Lucky you!

[@dagrohl1979]

It's so cool seeing Josh behind a piano. He's a talented boy.

[@Iokeful]

Jon Theodore is one of my all-time favorite drummers. A complete animal technically and has some real taste with his playing. Just go listen to the first 3 The Mars Volta albums, that's some serious skill. Glad QotSA picked this guy up. Great band, great performance here.

[@bpknows1]

ima rank my fav qotsa songs 1.like clockwork 2. my God is the sun 3. i appear missing 4.the sky is falling 6.hanging tree 7.kalopsia 8.go with the flow Honorable mentions : If i had a tail , 3s & 7s, I sat by the ocean, first it giveth

[@Maniac_7_7_7]

One of the best concert I've ever been to. I'm still amazed at how great they sounded. I feel lucky to have been there. So inspiring.

[@Maniac_7_7_7]

I was there. I had goosebumps the whole show because of how crazy good they sounded. One of the best concerts I've ever been to in my life.

[@sususegar]

Did anyone hear what I heard? Skip over at 53:38 Right after the line "You ain't a has-been if you never was", Josh says "ain't that right, Brant?"

[@oblivious0rebellion]

Yup 😂

[@FG-tt7wg]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@olledoom]

I Appear Missing is such an monster live! I wish it had that solo-outro part on the album! God, I loved that!

[@bpknows1]

💯

[@boobyg43062]

I love this new album, I just wish the vinyl was not so expensive.

[@pgoindi]

We retro-guys do have to pay a premium, don't we. I rarely buy new vinyl anymore because it is so pricey. I do get it as gifts though for my birthday and stuff...idea perhaps? Makes it even more special.

[@boobyg43062]

Your assuming I have people around me that like me enough to buy me present's, lol. Good idea though. I got this from Amazon for $27 bcuk's. A little steep but just had to have it. Rock on..

[@lbivxx]

the audio doesn't do the audience justice. we were all losing our shit throughout the entire show.

[@richardclarke9966]

No-one cares about your noise

[@IMSigson]

Thanks to QOTSA for allowing this to continue! It's always reassuring when a band (regardless of participants) makes it more about the music than the money! Always thankful!

[@vincenzoa2929]

QOTSA is always consistent as one of the best live rock bands of the last 20 years.

[@InTheKM]

Love the swagger in "Smooth Sailing". Reminds me of "I'm Designer".

[@JoyDrummer2]

The new drummers name is Jon Theodore. He is one of the greatest drummers I have ever seen and I study them all. His work with the Mars Volta is beyond amazing. Its an honor for any band to play with him

[@luzdaviola]

Man their new songs are awesome! I got my bromance back for Josh and QOTSA. Fantastic new drummer! The end part of "I Appear Missing" gives me the same ecstatic feeling as the end of Jimi's "Axis : Bold As Love" . Kind of just takes you and lifts you up. Anyone else?

[@Happily_celibate]

Just got into it recently. It's been on repeat ever since - such an underrated gem. ❤️‍🩹

[@luzdaviola]

@@Happily_celibate it's an awesome song.

[@PTiago07]

i appear missing is definitely a masterpiece, i say that to all my friends that like qotsa they didnt realized it yet. im just glad qotsa will come to portugal this summer, it will be fantastic watching them performing this new album live

[@jspanos500]

Jon Theodore is a monster. Cannot wait to hear what the next QOSA studio album will sound like with him behind the kit.

[@SimoneMessaggi]

Me too!

[@Zappappappappa]

jspanos500 what do you think???

[@InsolentMusicalPeasant]

The three part harmony from Josh, Mikey and Troy on Kalopsia is so amazing. And Mikey's screams are brutal as always.

[@XeMpTatude]

There's phenomenal songs on this album but Kalopsia is just a cut above. It's just a masterpiece.

[@jamiestonks]

i agree

[@216Remix]

I have died and gone to heaven! Thanks QOTSA!

[@anoukaranha2526]

Amazing musicians!

[@SimoneMessaggi]

They are!!!!

[@robo3007]

If I ever hear anyone say nobody makes good music anymore, I'll lock them in a room with this on repeat.

[@tinapuleo5279]

I’m just so thankful that josh is well and blessed and here to share his thoughts and kindness with us so amazing stay healthy and fucking talented ❤️‍🩹❤️

[@AmplifiedNetherlands]

Have watched from beginning to end, what a great show! They have crushed their own epicness with even more epicness!

[@dinojr8760]

The extended solo to appear missing should've been on the album... but I understand why its not. Can always listen to it here.

[@puccini4]

dinojr 87 so fuckin' right

[@doiknowmyenemy]

They need a live album

[@joetyler5816]

Will Whitworth so true

[@ksavoy82]

This is how it's done! This is a fantastic show of musicianship, and a testament to how Josh has grown as a composer, song writer. Well done sir, you won't.ever see some of these over produced younger "artists" actually put on a stage show of this caliber. Amazing 3

[@Dcomiskey90]

Absolutely love this album!! Best album by any band in a number of years! Cannot wait for Sunday in Dublin!!

[@gandalfshakur8235]

definitely their best album, and i love them all. a real band. qotsa IS rock n' roll!

[@Darak88]

saw them lastnight in dublin , fucking brilliant , amazing !

[@xariasvgm]

Seeing them tonight in Belfast myself. Fucking amped.

[@dbarraza31]

Every time I see them live, they seem better and better. I feel privileged to have been there in person.

[@troyeygabroad7694]

Wow!! I stumbled upon this on a late night treadmill session. Bored with whatever late late late night had to offer on the latest NBA "star" who signed an 80 million dollar contract...I flipped past public television. Wait a minute! Was that...? No. It couldn't have been, could it?? I didn't realize my mind was about to be blown by Iowa Public Television! This show is one for the ages. The set list? Oh my. Yes, there are some tunes missing, but who cares??? Maybe they didn't play your "favorite." I say find another. There are so many to choose from. My favorite changes from day to day with this band. There are no words for this show...all you need to do is sit back and enjoy the ride. Kudos to Josh and the rest of the boys. They never let me down.

[@bluespower28]

My girlfriend did the same thing for my birthday, We're seeing them in Brooklyn this December, can't wait! I love her so much.

[@Ammerlandpalmen]

great Music...

josh is always wonderfully in tune live

[@roxyc8034]

so effing awesome!

[@SummersPep]

did you see them here in Houston?? Epic night!!

[@roxyc8034]

Yes I did and then I flew to LA on Halloween night for the last concert of the tour.. BADASS!! Not only that but the next night I caught Marilyn Manson at The Roxy..so freaking awesome!

[@SummersPep]

Roxy C wow baby girl... all of that rocks tremendously!! So excited for you!! I tell you what... if you please help keep me up to date on concerts that you find, I will try to do the same!! H-Town can have some badass concerts and comedians. Maybe we can even meet up sometime!! #Peacelovemusic always sweet Roxy~ Summer)) #QOTSA

[@maxice8567]

I was at the Halloween concert as well! It was fucking awesome!

[@screaminglotus]

I went to see the show and it was ABSOLUTELY mind blowing - these guys are ridiculously fantastic at what they do and it shows. Queens never dissapoints! AND yes this volume situation is not doing it justice BUT the upload is very much appreciated :)

124 people ain't worth a dollar....

[@break.the.default_4328]

These guys are one of the best live bands around now who make rock seem very much still alive, and why have I still not gone to see them?

[@mistamuthafuka]

Queens of the Stone Age should do a Tiny Desk appearance.

[@npruett435]

Jon Theodore is a great addition to the band. I can't wait to hear his contribution going forward. His technique is amazing. He played with feeling and great tempo with drumming gymnastics thrown in there too.

[@samloveeee]

Who the fuck dislikes this? I don't understand, I really don't. I suddenly feel very very pissed off.

[@johnhavlicek726]

wtf is so great about it

[@lansier100]

I appear missing....best solo i heard in years!!!!!! makes me want to come and cry

[@Screech891]

Hahaha that look from mikey at 1:23:12 was like 'daaad you're embarassing meeee'

[@deathfromabove77]

I can't leave without saying that no other rock band of the last 25 years has delivered so much brilliant music, or have grown or have continued to develop in all areas of their music so that each new album is always fresh and always rewarding for their fans..I've said this before but ...Like Clockwork should and will put them in the" Foo Fighters , playing football stadiums league" this year..this is the year that the rest of the world catch up with all the QOTSA fans who've had it so good..

[@FunNy-mh4rw]

anyone else get a bowie-esq feel from like clockwork the whole album?

[@janmeyjayshukla3276]

Yupp. From the villains too

[@SweetPawsMcGenty]

They've never sounded tighter or more honed in than now. I'm amazed at how good they sound.

[@furionn]

They don't really play "I never came" live anymore, lucky those who were there that night...

[@burgues92]

Amazing!! the more i listen to the album the more i fall madly in love with it. the end of 'I appear missing' in this show is just phenomenal!!!

[@purplestrat]

53:39 aint that right brant

I've been through the entire thing about 40 times since its release. Balls blown off, still.

The transition between Smooth Sailing and Little Sister was fantastic

[@PerfectlyCromulentHandle]

I can't believe I get this today and Arrested Development tomorrow. Best weekend ever.

[@txbarker78]

holy crap....best show ever. i've seen these guys play 5 times live, never gets old. this by far was the best, wish i was there. fuck what an awesome band.

[@dariosaavedra1774]

i been listening LC since day 1, and i just can say that, I Appear Missing has become from a "good song" to an essencial part of my life. the version of this concert still makes me cry.

[@MazterChief1992]

So glad I got to go to this show! My head and voice are still blown!

[@XeMpTatude]

I know. I think that made it even better in my mind. I mean just the calm, graceful verses combined with the kick-ass chorus. Just awesome

[@discwrangler]

Ive had this playing in my house since it was posted. Killer band (the best at the moment) with great players. New album material has really grown on me....like anything great does.

[@DT24K]

I can’t get over how there’s (at least as of today so many yrs later here since performed..) that there’s 191 people that’s got on here and have this a ‘thumbs down’?! I mean, what exactly is it that makes some of these people want to do that?!! If you’re a avid fan of true rock music, how can you go wrong with these guys?! My God, they’ve only put out 1 after another after another after another etc etc etc. for yrs now of just f’kn pure awesome ass sounding music! Unless this total of 191 people on here voting a thumbs down were mixed up of ones who just don’t like rock music at all, don’t like QOTSA for whatever reason(s), just trying to piss whoever off by giving the thumbs down or....? Idk, w/the way people are in this world today, who the F knows what goes thru diff ones minds and/or makes em do the stupid sh*t they do?!! IMO though...?! This band ever so just f’kn rocks like a m’fkr, PERIOD!!!!

[@darkgladiator27]

Like Clockwork touched me even more. That solo is fantastic.

[@rodtaylor5476]

This tour was absolutely phenomenal. Killer set list and fantastic energy by the band

How can someone say that songs for the death is better than this master piece, the best thins aren’t all ways the older ones omg

I went to a QOTSA show yesterday and he rocked my ass off... I'm convinced... He is maybe a littlebit too perfect :D

Just saw them an hour ago in Cincinnati and they were great. Absolute great concert to go to.

[@jeffdunn837]

Seriously. A couple days ago I swear I just listened to those 3 minutes on repeat for about 45 minutes. Beautiful
