I tried twice to make it through that clip; I guess I find video interviews to almost always be awkward affairs...
(I know he quit though, mayhaps to preserve friendships w/ all concerned, such as they may be?)

Maybe look at something else while you're listening? There's some good stuff in there and the interviewer interrupts less as the interview goes on.

I'm sure he quit to get on Josh's food side. He wants to be on the new qotsa record

Gotta take it all with a grain of salt, but definitely changes perspectives a tad for me.

cocaine's a hell of a drug.

Nick has a really good perspective about things. You can't take the honesty away from that guy. I kind of think that honesty and the servitude he exhibits in that clip are big parts of what got him into the initial QotSA band.

I'd sure love to see Josh and Scott play together in some sort of capacity again. That would be the best thing to happen out of this in my opinion.

he joined. then when the lawsuit gets filed, he bails because it really wasn't his thing?

but *sniff* yeah, his *sniff* yeah perspective *sniff* was yeah awesome
new album recorded at josh's studio, though.

Did you notice he wasn't named in the lawsuit? And that he said he heard about it before the legal hammer went down?

I'm not saying the guy isn't a complete coat-tail-rider or a coke-head; just that he is an honest dude, who will lay all his cards out on the table. And in this present-day society, that counts for something.

Totally.

What if the whole lawsuit thing is a ruse to drum up publicity for all parties involved, and they're all in cahoots?

Then I applaud their creativity.

So, does anybody know who's playing bass on this current European tour?

fixed.

I'm actually interested. I totally thought that the lawsuit and Nick quitting would spell the end of the band for good, but I guess not. John and Brant have got some balls, I'll give 'em that!

It's a money-making machine right now. No way they're going to let it die.

I was really psyched to see them this summer. But now, if neither Oliveri or Reeder is in, I'm not so sure, Yeah, it would be nice to see all those classics live and all, but if it's just Garcia and Bjork, it feels like somethings missing.

All these dates are booked. They dig out the Garcia Play Kyuss-guy if necessary.

Aww man.... I sure hope not. I was so psyched to see Garcia, Bjork and Reeder (I understand that we was to play the european dates) or Oliveri.
This really sucks. Well, I just hope they work it out one way or another. I must say thougt that I don't think they should've ever called it Kyuss and in that respect I think this lawsuit is justified. This was Kyuss Lives, a tribute to the classic stuff played by the guys that did it and a chance for the fans to see the next best thing.
So if they were planning on changing the name to just Kyuss, the lawsuit up I say.

I am, it's under control

wait, what?

Nick quitting is terrible news. Seeing them last fall was one of the best I've ever seen!

I couldn't even make it through that train wreck of an interview.

Try smoking some meth first.

Meth might help Oliveri's run-on meththoughts make (more) sense...
