Show Notes by Tony Tarantula
o Last date with Rye Coalition as opener (thank God)
o "Spiders & Vinegaroons" provides the backdrop as QOTSA moseys onstage
o Nick introduced the band
o Nick stands on the speakers adjacent to the front row for parts of
"Millionaire" and "No One Knows"
o Josh visibly sick. the evidence:
o asked roadie for a cup of hot tea; had throat vapor spray situated in
front of drum kit
o coughed, sniffed a lot
o didn't stand on monitor, as he was doing a lot at the beginning of the
tour
o Lanegan onstage for six straight songs (sung backup on "Another Love
Song"), including "God Is on the Radio," which hasn't been played much this
tour
o Only one song from the first album. even if they did throw in "Ode to
Clarissa," they knew they weren't catering to many hardcore fans here - people barely
recognized the Rated R tunes, even
o As he's been doing a lot on this tour, between songs Josh says "Take
drugs," audience howls, he gives them an awkward look
o Josh bites on guitar strings Hendrix-style during one of the earlier songs
o Not one of their better gigs. Josh and Nick looked at each other a lot
during the very out-of-tune "Monsters in the Parasol," some other songs a
bit off
o Alternate "Leg of Lamb" closing lyric: "I tell you what / I'd get fucked /
If I knew I fucked."
o "Gonna Leave You" - Nick did all but the last verse in Spanish
o "Song for the Deaf" - Josh takes one guitar, sets it on a ringing effect
and puts it in front of one of the speakers near the drum set, plays with
another guitar
o Alternate "No One Knows" lyrics: "We get these pills to follow / . / I
journeyed through the Ozarks."
o Josh lights a lighter mid-way through "No One Knows," cracks a grin; many
in the audience imitate him
6.5 out of 10 for QOTSA (but 11 out of 10 for any normal gig, DOOOODE!)
