When a friend calls, Dave Grohl answers. And when that particular friend is Josh Homme, calling to ask him to make an appearance at the Josh Homme & Friends benefit concert, the Foo Fighters frontman jumped straight into rehearsal mode. Grohl’s process started with pulling up the lyrics to Doja Cat’s rebellious single “Paint the Town Red” and concluded with him penning a completely new song specifically for Homme.
“I spent a couple of days trying to figure out like, ‘What the fuck am I gonna play?’” Grohl told...

Josh Homme hosted an all-star benefit concert in support of his Sweet Stuff Foundation at the Belasco in Los Angeles on Wednesday. Over the course of the evening, he welcomed friends and collaborators to the stage, including Dave Grohl, Beck, St. Vincent, The Kills, Chad Smith of Red Hot Chili Peppers, Matt Helders of Arctic Monkeys, Jesse Hughes of Eagles of Death Metal, Bill Burr, and more.
Not surprisingly, Grohl provided several highlights. He went head to head against Smith in a drum off, and briefly attempted to sing a duet of Simon & Garfunkel’s “Sound of Silence” with Homme. Later, after joking that he attempted to learn how to play Doja Cat’s “Paint the Town Read” to no avail, he instead debuted an entirely new song he wrote about Homme.
Other notable moments included tennis legend John McEnroe briefly trying his hand at covering Beck’s “Fume,” before...

Josh Homme addressed the possibility of a Them Crooked Vultures comeback during a fan Ama on reddit, saying he would love to get the band back together — but ultimately it’s not his call.
In a response to a fan who asked whether Vultures would ever record a new album, Homme explained, “It’s sort of not my job to put Vultures back together, that’s Dave [Grohl]’s job. My job is to dance around, write words, and try to write some music.”
That said, Homme continued, “I really want to — Dave knows this. I really want Vultures to get back together and do one more round.”
Them Crooked Vultures, which featured Homme, Grohl, Led Zeppelin’s John Paul Jones, and Alain Johannes, released their first and only album to date in November 2009. They toured extensively behind the release, but then went their separate ways in 2010. In 2022, the group briefly...

Foreigner’s overdue Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nomination arrived on this year’s ballot for the first time in the band’s history.

Queens of the Stone Age stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Thursday night to deliver a rocking rendition of “Emotion Sickness.” Watch the performance below.
The ninth track on the band’s latest album, In Times New Roman…, “Emotion Sickness” first arrived as a single this past May, and displays the band’s knack for swaggering, guitar-driven rock.
The performance on Kimmel comes as Queens of the Stone Age are at the tail-end of a year full of touring.

Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme revealed earlier this year that he was diagnosed with cancer in 2022, and subsequently underwent surgery as a method of treatment. In a new interview, the singer-guitarist reports that he’s gotten the “all clear” as far as his battle with cancer is concerned.
“I’m good. I’m all clear,” said Homme when asked by ITV about his current health status, adding that he’s feeling “the best I’ve felt all year.”
Homme also opened up the recent losses of several people who were close to him. “A lot of people have passed away near [me], nine people in the last … year and a half now.” While he didn’t name any specific people, among his close friends who have passed away in that time were his former Queens of the Stone Age bandmate Mark Lanegan and Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins.
