Queens of the Stone Age has canceled the remainder of their 2024 shows while founder and frontman Josh Homme seeks medical care.
Rockers Queens of the Stone Age are canceling the rest of their 2024 concerts. The band shared a statement on social media explaining, 'QOTSA regret to announce the cancelation and/or postponement of all remaining 2024 shows.' It continued, noting founding member and lead singer and guitarist Josh Homme 'has been given no choice but to prioritize his health and to receive essential medical care through the remainder of the year.
The cancelation comes over a month after the band had to call off several European tour dates so Homme could 'return to the United States immediately for emergency surgery.' 'Every effort was made to push through and play for you, but it is no longer an option to continue,' their statement said. 'Josh and the QOTSA family are so thankful for your support and the time we were able to spend together over the last year. Hope to see you all again in 2025.
The band is not alone in having to cancel shows for health reasons. Earlier this year, Aerosmith announced they are officially retiring from touring, due to lead singer Steven Tyler's vocal issues. As you know, Steven’s voice is an instrument like no other. He has spent months tirelessly working on getting his voice to where it was before his injury,' a statement from the band read read. 'We’ve seen him struggling despite having the best medical team by his side. Sadly, it is clear, that a full recovery from his vocal injury is not possible. We have made a heartbreaking and difficult, but necessary, decision — as a band of brothers — to retire from the touring stage.
