DOWNLOAD FESTIVAL 2024 – JOSH HOMME On Being Headliner With QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE
DOWNLOAD FESTIVAL
Donington Park, Leicestershire, England
June 14-16, 2024 – 21st edition
Queens Of The Stone Age mastermind Josh Homme
talked to NME about being one of the headliners.
“Is it just going to be same-old-same-old?. You always have to give it your all and changing it every night is what we’re about, so it’s always going to be something different. I don’t think there’s any reason to trip out.”
“And if you see someone with a sign that says, ‘Do this god damn tune’ then it feels nice to just be able to react in the moment. We come bearing gifts, and we want to give everything away. It’s nice to play Donington, but it’s just as nice to play Bournemouth too. That’s not to cheapen either – they’re both as good as it can get. These aren’t real problems.”
Another feel good summer coming up with QOTSA.
