JP Soundsystem Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Just bought some for Nottingham! Got a room at the travelodge for only £19 too! Can't wait for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thodrik Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 I heard about this a while ago, though originally I thought they were just playing Germany. Personally I would prefer Scott Reeder in there. No gigs in Scotland is a bit annoying. I would go if it was local, but its not something I would travel to. I'm generally against bands reuniting just for the sake of it, without actually releasing anything new. It really needs Homme to be Kyuss as he was such a big part of their sound. Should be some good gigs though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobbass4k Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I'm going to the london show but remaining healthily skeptical. What I keep coming back to is that this is 3 quarters of my 2'nd favourite line up. I know Oliveri is more popular and famous, but Reeder was by far the better bassist for their sound.

Lfalex v1.1 Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Reeder is the better bassist for Kyuss, but Olivieri suited the early QOTSA "robot rock" style perfectly. Who's drumming? Brant Bjork or Alfredo Hernandez? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without Bjork they'd have even more trouble calling it a Kyuss reunion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thodrik Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 So they are playing Glasgow it seems. I probably will see them after all. I saw Brant Bjork a few months ago in a tiny little venue. Somehow I feel these gigs will be a little less intimate, which I suppose is good news as it means they are making money. I wonder with it being Oliveri that it will mostly be stuff from Blues for the Red Sun and Wretch rather than anything written after he left?
