[ColleenCurlyFry]

omg....there are no words to adequately describe what exactly their music...their sound...does to me...it goes right to the core of my soul & grabs me & never lets go...I never get tired of hearing them & never get tired of watching their live performances.......they are the most amazing live...everyone should see them if ever they get a chance.

[Alazog83]

0 people must have pressed the.......oh, wait, that lame joke doesn't work here I guess :)

[Shalabeizer]

this should be much louder :/

[ExclaimedMusic]

1:23 - Josh has two Maestro Parametric Filters on top of his amps. Quit hogging them, I want that sound!

[kyussurday]

Yeah.........., enough said

[mynamebackwardsisbob]

my forearm hurts just watching the drummer

[louisalive]

@mynamebackwardsisbob techniqueeeee... look at his arms though... eat your vegetables and play qotsa kids

[GAMOSHOOTER]

Lol why does he say aeroplane?

[jeryr80]

[acidmillionaires]

[Mrfoxxer]

Babe Baby Baby : D

[pyurmassacur]

"Alright, let's give it a hwirl!"

[epsohapshiro]

aeroplaane! xD genius

[chivoexpiatorio]

como flasheo con el rock de esta terrible banda no se puede creerrr, volas

[m4714s]

@chivoexpiatorio

queens es lo mejor para flashear y colgar un raato era vulgaris debe haber sido grabado para eso....

es el cd ideal

[harrywedel95]

AEROPLANE!

[shtpuppets]

am i stoned as fuck or does it pixilate when they move

[Coolconman1Alt]

@shtpuppets im stoned as fuck and they're pixelating!!!

[hailmasch]

@Coolconman1Alt I can't figure out if it is on purpose or just crappy quality, but it looks fucking cool!

[thierryman]

@shtpuppets It's pixelating

[91slowhand]

Troy always keeps it classy. And a damn good player, way underrated.

[markkalady]

i don't know why people keep ignoring that solo it's magic sex

[iPurpleProductions]

Just listening to this in my head im thinking "these guys are just too fkn good" Queens is one of the few bands that sound better live, thats when you know a band is talented

[CB836]

joey confuses gravity

[valeriogchannel]

Love the bass line!

[5sagen5]

does he say aeroplane at the begining?!? lol love qotsa

[TehSeig3]

Homme's guitar... what is it?

[Haiddsalami]

@TehSeig3

scientists have yet to find out unfortunately..

[michiemouse2]

@TehSeig3 its a teisco, an old japanese guitar make. not sure what model though :/

[ncawadias]

"White boy dressed up like a ...figure.

[247randomshit]

@ncawadias nigure

[ncawadias]

@247randomshit LOL finally.

[JamesLeNoble]

I cant listen to the album version of this song any more because this live version is so much better! DAT LEAD GUITAR!

[millionsofyou]

I think they're the tightest they have ever been with this line up, can't wait for the new album :)

[rztronic]

this song is so fuckin cooool. OMFG!

[guitargeek90]

@JohnEddy123 Looks like a burns.

[TheUchoob]

Queens are the f***in BOMB!!!



[AmuseMe543]

Is it just me, or is Queens one of the most fucking tightest bands ever? I mean they're songs are perfectly executed to the point that even live they produce studio quality performances.

[DillingerEscapeMan]

@AmuseMe543 So fuckin' true

[louisalive]

@AmuseMe543 nah, that's what you're sposed to do, it's just modern recording allows bands to be shit. Their sound on the other hand... probably one of the best ever

[Halfdacrackrock]

@AmuseMe543 Amazing pauses in the song 90% of bands couldn't pull off this well. 

[equap]

@xxxLabs1078xxx jessa i think its a nice effekt too but do u know how its called "in the bizz":-)

u know what i mean

i think this is not the "aha" effekt everyone is talking about right :-)

[dvt1393]

"Aeroplane!"  God dammit, I love Josh!

[hashkat]

does it get pixalated on purpose?

[hashkat]

one of the best drummers out there

[bigjohnny12345678]

ahh yes, 0 dislikes, as deserved i would say

[coyel]

i can play about a minute of this song on drums before my right hand goes completely dead

[lufc550]

Josh Homme is hilarious in these Basement sessions

[thierryman]

This would so be a song to make love to

[Diabeticuss]

I saw them play this song last night at the beaumont in KC. fucking totally different experience live, it was amazing

[Migas128]

"bigger is better, bigger is bigger"

hell yeah! girls approve this right? lol

[ferrarif40]

@Migas128 The line is "You say bigger's better, but bigger's bigger" which seems to suggest he's saying the opposite of what you were thinking (ie size and quality not being linked) The very next line in the song is the best by a mile though, and don't lie people you say nigger when you sing along

[timbo177]

@ferrarif40 The whole album has clever lyrics. More "fuck you"-ish.

[Migas128]

@ferrarif40 "quality" that's what guys with small cocks say LOL you got busted

[timbo177]

@Migas128 He was correcting you on what the line meant lol

[Migas128]

@timbo177 whatever... :/

[ferrarif40]

@Migas128 I'm actually a woman so....

[Migas128]

@ferrarif40 lol oups! then i got busted lol

[TaffyRaphie]

@ferrarif40 lol, white boy dressed up like a nigger? I always thought thats what he says, but I thought he'd never say that, especially in a song.

Same sorta deal for blue blood blues (a dead weather song) the album version, if you know that song

[Guitarshock]

@TaffyRaphie He actually says neighbors, but I thought this EXACT SAME THING the first time I heard it. I listened to that spot like 10 times just thinking "what the fuck?"

[408punk]

this is the sickest fuckin song by far. much better than the cd version!!! love that whining guitar in background

[JAMIEGRANTHAM32]

3:23 <3

[PrestonDowMusic]

these guys sound INCREDIBLE live

I'd say qotsa is the only best sounding live band (tied w/ the flaming lips)

seriously, no band sounds so good (not just plays as good, but actually *sounds* as good) live. phenomenal

[LovinRock1985]

@PrestonDowMusic: Maybe there´s only one band which is LIVE as good as QOTSA and this is Them Crooked Vultures. Make sure and visit a concert. I´ve seen them both.

[PrestonDowMusic]

@LovinRock1985 really? from what I've seen they kick ass. are they mixed as ludicrously well as this? if so, I might cream everywhere

[SuperMario16bit]

@PrestonDowMusic I'd say Fugazi are the best live sounding band. QOTSA are defiantly the best going now, though Josh does have a lot of shit to make their sound massive. Fugazi have barely any of that and they still rock as hard. Check out the live version of Epic Problem, mind-blowing stuff. Then again so is this, that last verse always gets me.

[PrestonDowMusic]

@SuperMario16bit

You're so right about Fugazi dude. I'd never listened to their live stuff before. Now I'm so glad you've "enlightened" me.

[okcomputeA]

@SuperMario16bit is everyone forgetting about radiohead???? watch their live from the basement or any oother concert at that such as 2003 Glastonbury. O and i know its old but the eagles are very good still, if you have seen their fair well tour footage you would agree.

[Shawarman]

You can see Joey's entire drum setup on DW's website.

[mci181]

Castillo must have bionic arms

[GhOsTbOy01010101]

@mci181 my right arm would catch fire and fall off after trying to play that!!

[pathfinder771]

@mci181 He´s just one of the kings of the stone age - that means: Neandertal

[MrTimMertens]

It's a DW Bronze Collector Series.

@ thejambo93: it's actually the opposite: he can't stand wood. He always use a metal snare live, so it would be a little weird to say he hates them!

And the info on wikipedia isn't right about the stave shell.

The one he uses currently is a DW Vintage Steel Collectors Metal, with a Brass finish, very nice one!

[05olieat]

how i wish to jam with a drummer like that!!

[sparkydeltorro]

I think the song has some of the best lyrics of any song.

[gangige]

I wish I was Josh's mole.

[riotsword]

3:24-4:28 just might be the most transcendent fucking thing I've heard in my life.

[peachmelba1000]

5bpm faster

[bigjohnny12345678]

i would have sex with the opening drum part and then also with the lead guitar line

[GrooveInYourOwnTime]

baby baby baabeee

[yorisii]

Josh must have two separate brains in order to play the verse and sing that line :O

[fender7682]

joey must hate playing this song... i can feel his forearm burning

[pepe7drum]

@fender7682 hahahaha i know!

[TaffyRaphie]

@fender7682 i know, when i try to play this, the arm for the tambourine burns like hell.

[BJBorchert93]

@fender7682 He actually says it's his favorite song to play live. But I'm a guitarist and my forarm's burning too just listening to it.

[TractorTheBassist]

today: qotsa & linkin park at swu! n i wont be there... =[

[TheDimebagg]

@jjthemadgenius dude im totally agree with you, just loving grhol's style its kinda hard and soft, you know something makes me miss zepellin'sdrummer ( cant write the name lol )

[21YEAH21]

he says "give it a whirl" like stewie griffin would say "cool whip".

[CB836]

@jjthemadgenius totally agree ! 

[Ibanezymandias]

Aeroplane!

[mattcau06]

@Ibanezymandias That look on his face when he says that cracks me up every time.

[riotsword]

"Let's give a 'h-wirl'." lol.

[saaalut]

Best live version because great sound and Josh is singing well, but too calm

[Drzmvp21]

you know a song is good when you feel like your being engulfed by it! Every queens of the stone age song does that, its an epic trip!!

[offdutyjie]

BEAST DRUMMER!

[DFSrlz]

3:24 The start of an ear orgy

[StrokesDrummer]

Joey is the reason why i began drumming years ago.

Heres another prime example, like how can you not like him?

[chupacabra20]

The only band i have ever loved

[TheDimebagg]

i'm agree he's a great drummer but you can't avoid the comparation w dave grhol whos totally kick ass, songs for a deaft its the greates album from a long time

[TelePaulCaster]

Joey doesn't get enough credit as a drummer

[louisalive]

@TelePaulCaster nah, he's very highly regarded as a drummer, and so he should be, he's got such a cool style, slightly reminiscent of a certain Cadburys advert

[readingfcdec]

whats the guitar josh has?

[thefistoflight1]

@readingfcdec think it's a burns model not sure

[foogrrrl]

how do you know when a instrument is good?

I can´t seperate it form their abilities

[fdge]

this line-up is awesome! no matter what others think..

[chriszichrisz]

@fdge yeah! best line up ever!

[jondice]

@fdge And super amazing live. I've seen them six times and the only line-up I think is better involves Dr. G.

[cjml21]

Amazing version, but anyone know what's with the random high piched 'Aeroplane' at the start? Love the song though.

[miekjemeis]

You just wish you where there in the studio. Just behind the door, enjoying this performance.

[hashkat]

any one know what kinda guitar josh is using?

[anthoniozippo]

@hashkat probably some vintage/rare teisco

[anthoniozippo]

@hashkat probably some weird/rare teisco

[matt9992005]

tighttt

[BoothJudas]

that snare drum is beautiful

[CB836]

i think joey has to wrists on his right arm...such a cool drummer !!!

[acridus]

great version, hate troy's guitar over main riff though

[sway304]

To freaking much!....Awesome

[gus5985]

fucking huge sound

[GODCORRUPTED]

this drum kit is totally amazing, the snare is fucking gold

[Cmoneyblingin]

@GODCORRUPTED Looks like a metal DW snare with wood hoops. Bronze maybe? Sounds excellent.

[thejambo93]

@Cmoneyblingin Joey uses a DW stave shell snare with a wood hoop. He has mentioned in a few interviews that he can't stand metal snares, neither can I personally.

[nathan102485]

@GODCORRUPTED

Agreed, but dont forget this is all going through a mixing board and computer.

[Nessi311]

@GODCORRUPTED Thats cause it's freakin Joey Castillo!

[equap]

@GODCORRUPTED yes he got some big ass tombs dude:-)

[Asciipanda]

@GODCORRUPTED I wanna stick my dick in that set, have an illegitimate human/drumset child, wait till that child matures. And then play it and hope to be half as good as Castillo is.

[actioncock]

oooooooooow baby...

[HeavensRat1986]

Just Fucking Awsome!!!!

[BlandUserName]

Flawless.
