Queens of the Stone Age Cancels 2024 Shows

Queens of the Stone Age have canceled or postponed all remaining 2024 tour dates due to frontman Josh Homme prioritizing his health following emergency surgery. The band made the announcement on social media, expressing regret over the cancellations and thanking fans for their support. Homme's health has been a concern since he underwent surgery to remove cancer last year, and he is currently focused on essential medical care. The band was scheduled to perform eight shows in North America this fall, but those have been moved to 2025, including notable gigs in Boston and Cincinnati, along with festival appearances that have also been canceled. Fans have responded with an outpouring of support, wishing Homme a speedy recovery. Despite the setbacks, the band remains hopeful for a return to the stage in 2025.
