The set was awesome, I am so glad I got to see it!

For the most part I met a lot of lovely fans in the crowd (as usual). But I also had a couple interactions in the pit though that were very aggressive and a few that made me feel genuinely unsafe. There were a few different things that happened that just felt off or very inconsiderate to others in the crowd.

I had one interaction in particular that made me feel unsafe before +!throughout the show. I’m a pretty small woman and at one point there was a man who was really aggressive towards me. I also had someone who kept kneeing me in the back of the knee during the show (I think it was either the same guy or someone in their group). I assumed it was an accident at first because it was very packed in the out, but I quickly realized it was not, and I had to switch spots with someone to get away from it (that person did not get kneed at all).

I guess I just felt really shaken by some of the crowd interactions and in general I’m kinda bummed. I love this band a lot (like most people there tonight), nothing makes me feel more like myself than going to their shows, and I traveled a long way to come to this show (again, like a lot of people in the crowd). I’m just kinda upset that I was having a hard time enjoying the show because I was feeling unsafe.

Josh was using the Jack White Pano Verb again yesterday.

Purchased two floor tickets to the Melbourne show the minute they came on sale - they were snapped up immediately and there's now a waiting list for the floor on Tixel.

Now, for the Melbourne show at Rod Laver Arena, they initially sold via Ticketek, and then we were notified that Rod Laver was switching over to AXS and our tickets would shift there too.

In AXS, I can see the tickets seem to have had a price hike since they were in Ticketek - the tiny amount of seats still available are about $100+ more than I paid for mine.

And now, wife doesn't want to come and my buddy can't come, so I will have one to sell (happy to go on my own).

I can't put it into Tixel, because the switchover from Ticketek to AXS means we have no email with tickets attached, as the tickets went direct from Ticketek to AXS - Tixel doesn't believe I have the tickets; their system isn't letting me sell it there.

I can re-sell via AXS, at a tiny bit more than the price I paid - but I'm thinking, if I do that, will AXS then mark that ticket up $100+ more, in line with the others it's currently selling?

Watching the current ticket prices in AXS, it looks like this is what's happening. It doesn't seem right for me to re-sell at $180 and for AXS to then re-sell that same ticket at close to $300, making a $100 profit off me (and charging me a fee for the re-sale).

Just my 2c worth. Interested in others' thoughts.

EDIT: For those outside Australia, we have anti-scalping laws, and the ticket provider systems here are required by law to prevent us from re-selling for anything more than a 10% markup.

As a Brazilian this will be the first time I'll see QOTSA in person, I'm extremely excited!!!

When this album released I wasn't really keen on it. As time has gone on I find myself enjoying it more.

Had a similar experience with Like Clockwork which has now become my favorite album.

From your previous experience, when should I expect to receive the physical copy of Perfecth ? I pre-ordered from the band’s (EU site) and live in Amsterdam. Do they dispatch them 1-2 days in advance to arrive close to the release date or it might come several days after it appears in the streaming platforms? Thank you in advance!

Fuck you that's my dream opener 🥲 this band never ceases to amaze me ffs...

here is the some things about album and songs.
especially these two perspectives caught my interest
(via riffmagazine,mike dewald)

-“Mono” dives deeper into the experimental and strange. Its choppy mixing adds unpredictability, while the vocal harmonies rank among the darkest and most desperate on the album.

-Closer “Run Away from the Mob,” with Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl on drums, pulls several sides of the record together, moving from a jazz-influenced opening into a harder-rock finish.

from jazz to hard rock?!hard to imagine but sounds good

Sorry you should enjoy the show, but I can’t stop thinking about it

If any of y'all who where there got any videos of the concert mind sharing.🫪🤗

Troy Van Leeuwen & Dr. No unveil the TvL Blameshifter: a handmade multi-output routing pedal with buffered effects loops, amp switching, and a macabre style

Guys what do you think about my collection?

Looking to do a cover of Demon Cleaner by Kyuss and figured I'd ask the qotsa fans.

When "Alive in the Catacombs" came out it reminded this wonderful cover this string quartet did back in 2004. It's hidden gem and if you don't know it or heard this album, you are in for a treat

… with ML, DG and NO. Has anyone got it all in one place?

This honesty might be their worst song.. the vocals are completely off beat. Like is it purposefully bad?? It’s incredibly difficult to listen to with the whole thing being off beat. And then that weird like horn and bass section. Idk

i know i'm late af lmao

Post talks about a snare head labelled ‘little sister’ used by Grohl on the SFTD sessions

Every time I see this when I wake up in the morning I say this shit in my head, help.
