Queens of the Stone Age to perform reworked hits in S.F.
Queens of the Stone Age is bringing newly reimagined versions of its hit songs to San Francisco this fall.
The rock band is scheduled to take over Davies Symphony Hall on Nov. 10, as part of its limited-run Catacombs Tour. The trek draws on the band's recent concert film, 'Alive in the Catacombs,' which was shot in the Catacombs of Paris and released earlier this month.
The Josh Homme-fronted group known for tracks like 'No One Knows' and 'Go With The Flow,' plans to 'draw upon the spirit of those sublime subterranean renditions' and enhance them with 'assembled ensembles,' according to the band's tour announcement released Monday, June 23.
Ticket presales begin at 10 a.m. Tuesday, June 24, with general sales starting at 10 a.m. Friday, June 27.
Fellow alt-rockers the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, which rose to prominence around the same time as Queens of the Stone Age in the aughts, is also scheduled to perform at Davies on July 14-15 as part of its Hidden in Pieces 25th anniversary tour.
Queens of the Stone Age's series of intimate shows, all of which are set in historic theaters, kicks off on Oct. 2 in Chicago and wraps up in New Orleans on Nov. 21.
European dates are expected to be announced soon.
'You'll want to look as good as the music is going to sound on this very special evening at the theater,' the tour announcement states, encouraging fans to dress up for the occasion.
Queens of the Stone Age have only recently returned to live performances, following a string of cancellations last year prompted by Homme's health issues, including an undisclosed emergency surgery. While the band did not share details, Homme revealed in 2023 that he had undergone successful cancer treatment.
The group's most recent album, 'In Time New Roman…,' was released in July 2024.

Queens of the Stone Age announce ‘Catacombs Tour,' NYC show. Get tickets

Featured pricing is subject to change. There's no place like with Homme. Queens of the Stone Age announced they're striking out on their 2025 'The Catacombs Tour' in support of their recently-released five-song EP 'Alive In The Catacombs.' While out and about, the 'No One Knows' rockers will hit 'intimate' theaters and symphony halls all over North America from October through November. They're currently slated to close the first leg of the two-month U.S. and Canada fall run at New York City's Beacon Theatre on Friday, Oct. 10. The band shared on Instagram that these concerts will be 'a limited series of very special one-night-only evenings at a curated selection of North America's most historic theaters…comprised of all-new arrangements crafted specifically for the occasion and enhanced by assembled ensembles, the end result will be a precious few unique and intimate performances unlike any previous QOTSA tour.' At the moment, the Seattle natives are currently wrapping their ongoing 2023 'The End Is Nero Tour' — which was extended in February — after taking a brief respite in 2024 when the band cancelled (and subsequently rescheduled) a number of shows due to lead singer and frontman Josh Homme needing emergency surgery. Fans Cavepeople can purchase tickets for all upcoming Queens of the Stone Age shows on sites like Vivid Seats; the official on-sale for 'The Catacombs Tour' is Friday, June 27.

Queens of the Stone Age tour schedule 2025 A complete calendar including all North American (and a few European) dates, venues and links to buy tickets can be found below. Queens of the Stone Age set list Most recently, Homme and the band rocked Chicago's Huntington Bank Pavilion on June 21. According to Set List FM, here's what they took to the stage that night. 01.) 'A Song for the Deaf' 02.) 'No One Knows' 03.) '3's & 7's' 04.) 'Paper Machete' 05.) 'Smooth Sailing' 06.) 'My God Is the Sun' 07.) 'Emotion Sickness' 08.) 'If I Had a Tail' 09.) 'Time & Place' 10.) 'Carnavoyeur' 11.) 'Kalopsia' 12.) 'Misfit Love' 13.) 'Make It Wit Chu' 14.) 'I Sat by the Ocean' 15.) 'Little Sister' 16.) 'Go With the Flow' 17.) 'A Song for the Dead' Queens of the Stone Age new music On June 13, QotSA dropped the five-song EP 'Alive In The Catacombs.' The mini-album is a stripped-down, string-heavy vulnerable affair that starts slow before building to a softer climax than the group is typically known for. Think 2004 'Funeral' era Arcade Fire but led by Homme and you're not a million miles away from what the band is bringing to the table here. Standouts include the powerful, sea shanty-esque album opener 'Running Joke/Paper Machete,' gentle, lilting 'Kalopsia' and the pitter-patter-y 'I Never Came' closer. Each is unexpectedly beautiful in its own unique way. To hear for yourself, you can find 'Alive In The Catacombs' here. Huge rockers on tour in 2025 Prepare to jam out like never before. Many of the biggest and heaviest acts around are playing venues all over North America these next few months.
