Them Crooked Vultures

This band is a fucking dream come true for me. I am a very big fan.

I mean, wouldn’t you like to see thatwasthen open for THESE cats? How do we do that?

Scumbag Blues by Them Crooked Vultures.

A collaboration between Josh Homme, John Paul Jones and Grohl was first publicly mentioned by Grohl in a 2005 interview with MOJO in which he declared “The next project that I’m trying to initiate involves me on drums, Josh Homme on guitar, and John Paul Jones playing bass. That’s the next album. That wouldn’t suck.”

Them Crooked Vultures performed its first show at the METRO in Chicago on August 9, 2009. The band played all original material during its 80-minute set, debuting such songs as opener “Elephants” (MY PERSONAL FAVORITE), “Scumbag Blues”, “Caligulove” and closing song “Nobody Loves Me and Neither Do I”. TCV made its European debut on August 19 with a performance at Melkweg in the Netherlands. With subsequent festival performances in Europe, the band first performed in the United Kingdom at London‘s Brixton Academy supporting English band Arctic Monkeys on August 26.

On November 3, the band gave a free copy of “Mind Eraser (No Chaser)” to fans that had bought tickets to a live performance and offered it on iTunes as a free download. On November 9, they started streaming their full album on their website, and also through a link to their mailing list with the title “Fuck Patience, Let’s Dance.”

On September 1, the band announced two 2009 tours of North America and the United Kingdom, in October and December respectively. The 2009 US Tour and the UK leg sold out in just under 12 minutes, making it one of the quickest sold tours in the UK — without the band even officially releasing a song to date. On September 21, the band also announced three Germany dates for December 2009. [Source: Wikipedia]
