there's at least three videos of him doing virtually the same thing on youtube. That was probably the worst of them though. There's a classic one where someone gets on teh stage and he just launches them back into the crowd.
Wasn't that Akon?
Describe
for those at work with filters, please
Some kid throws something at him
And he goes on a rant about how he's had a 102 temperature for three days, but he'd still kick the fuck out of anyone who throws shit at him, gets the kid brought over the barrier, Homme throws something back at him, the bouncers carry him away whilst Homme calls him a '12 year old dickless faggot' repeatedly.
Sounds a bit OTT
but also quite funny, ta.
^ ^
Beat me to it! :-)
Young kid throws something at stage
Homme launches into a 1.30 minute foul mouthed tyrade at said kid, calling him various names: 'dickless Cunt' 'Pussy fag*ot' etc, kid gets pulled out of crowd by security, Homme throws something at kid, kid is lead away.
A dickless cunt.
can't fault the man's understanding of human biology
At first it was funny...
Then i started to feel a bit uneasy watching it
It's not that bad
I felt a bit harsh for the kid but when I realised he threw something at him I ceased caring. I've seen much much worse, and Homme genuinely just looks ill and pissed off.
there
is very little redeeming about QOTSA.
^
Were you at The Thekla yesterday? Did you enjoy it?
The drummer
looks very uneasy with the whole situation!
yep i noticed the drummer looked uneasy too
but i'm sorry am i the only one to find the whole thing a bit cringeworthy? Homme could have just arranged for said dickless 12 year old to be thrown out discreetly without both parties losing their dignity...
Homme never had dignity to begin with
throwing stuff at kids doesn't make you hard. what a twat
No I wasn't.
was that the Adem show? How was it? Did he call anyone a "dickless fucking turd"?
Oh, I thought you were going to be there for Lonely Ghosts and munch munch
Yes, it was. And no he didn't, alas :(
Why throw something at Josh Homme?
It's not like anyone will win a fight against him.
(daydreams about Josh Homme)
yeh it must be pretty cool
to be josh-i'm-harder-than-all-of-you-homme.
*sigh*
I'm not the best person
for this topic, as I am slighly biased.
He was probably annoyed
because their last album was shit.
i was being completely serious!
Goir, you once through yr guitar at me
in Stoke and I shat myself, so yr well 'ard :D
*threw
very very drunk.
The sound of a man
who knows his band aren't as good as they used to be.
I've always though he was an arsehole
and this confirms it. When are people going to realise that it is not acceptable to use the term 'faggot'? His macho bluster is really rather staid. He acts like he's Mike Tyson when he is an ageing frat-boy rocker with a crap haircut.
i always thought
josh homme was gay.
maybe not.
although he does offer to "butt fuck" the kid in the crowd. which is nice
He's still with Brody Dalle
they have a kid toghether, the ultimate rock offspring.
he could destroy mike tyson
Koko B-Ware
could destroy Mike Tyson now, actually.
josh homme
could destroy anyone. he's colossal.
and he looks sick with a raincoat
Koko B-Ware
can destroy anyone...if he's still alive.
Koko was amazing:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xci6AZnPADw
He's right too- love IS just like a piledriver.
I doubt that
Not big in my eyes..
The kid was a jerk for throwing something but I've no idea what it was. If it was something that could have harmed someone then security should have sorted him out.
But when Homme starts his rant on some loner kid when he's got security and an army of fans behind him be-littles him in my eyes.
Looks like we need to find a new "coolest ginger"
and it cant be Ron Howard.
but Ron Howard
did the narrative on Arrested Development!!!
And doesn't shut up about it
Well, when I put my DVD in.
Boris Becker is now the top ginge.
but it's such a good show!
I think he co-wrote some of it or created the concept or something.
why does it?
the kid was throwing someone at him trying to make homme look stupid, he made the kid look like the utter cock that he is, regardless of security and the support of the fans. surely the fact that he had an army of fans behind him suggests the kid probably shouldnt have done it, given that 99% of people wanted to hear the band.
Fair enough I think
You're up there trying to play and some F**ktard throws something at you....I think he was justified in having a go at the kid......people who throws stuff at gigs are f**ing idiots.
Yeah
It's a bit much but if you're ill and been hit in the head whilst trying to play I think rationality goes out the window.
But then again I'm probably just covering for him because of the guitar tone in Demon Cleaner. I love that tone so much he could have stabbed the kid in the face with a pair of hedge trimmers and I'd let it slide.

you loses
work filter
but i can confirm this: i love josh homme.
I do know
that Josh Homme is one person I really wouldn't like to piss off. Mind you, what does this say about Nick Oliveri that he was supposedly too insane even for Josh Homme to deal with.
I cant decide if this is the lamest thing ever or not
Singer of rock band+audience of thousands vs one possibly drunk kid who through a beer or something
what a big man. The wee guy crying made me sad though. Still pretty funny.
And this is where equivocation gets you.
Joey Santiago (is that his name? the drummer)
looked a bit embarrassed, I thought.
embarrassed in the presence of a more manly man
I dunno
isn't he bigger than homme? plus he used to be in the Misfits so he may or may not have vampiric powers.
homme is like 6 foot 6
he's huge
*Danzig, shirely
horse?
wow, joey santiago from the pixies?
; )
(joey castillo)
That's the fella.
He's a funny-looking geezer.
Castillo
but hes doing something that the rest of the crowd didnt agree with
i think cocks who throw stuff at gigs deserve all the name calling in the world
Not really
It's cockish, yeah, maybe deserves to be singled out but not constantly barraged with insults, threatened with physical violence, having stuff thrown at him then carried out of the gig.
and josh homme challenging anyone to a fight is going to be unfair 90% of the time
if you take it that 90% of the population are beefed up man mountains, like josh homme. It was pretty childish really. Not very cool, but pretty funny.
again i disagree
if you start throwing stuff at a person bigger than you, you should take the consequences. i wouldnt go up to some huge bloke and hit him in the face and then act as though i was wronged when he uses his physical advantage to kick the shit out me
well what would you expect an ordinary person to do
if someone was for no reason throwing stuff at them? people seem to think because they are on a stage its ok to throw shit at them. its not.
two wrongs don't make a right
it might be too cliche to be cool but it's true!
Thats bullshit
when you get on stage it's a completely different situation. If the kid had a mic too (i.e could hurl expletives back) and had a few thousand people behind him too, then it would be "ordinary".
Yeah but the kid had a bottle
he threw it at homme, and homme used what he had to retort. My point was, just because someone is onstage, it doesnt give you the right to throw stuff at them and not expect them to retaliate.
Ok so let's just say
the kid was an idiot if he didn't expect a reaction like that from Mr.Cool, but people like Joshiewosh should be setting a better example for the wasted kids of the future!
Not to mention
He's like, what, mid-30s and this is some 14/15/16 year old kid.
Regardless of age....it makes no difference
don't chuck stuff at the stage and expect not to be abused......you are a complete t**t if you throw stuff at gigs....whether you 16 or 60.
You can tell he's real pissed
his voice even breaks a bit.
thats fucking lame
its at a festival for fucks sake!
hey is complaining about being hot and yet he has a massive winter jacket on.
what a dick. shit band as well.
1) what difference does it make where it is?
2) hes ill you bellend
Spoilt Egotistial Rockstar
acts like a spoilt egotistical rockstar. What a surprise!
indeed
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nl33poJNSE4
IF YOU WANT TO FIGHT GO TO A GAYBAR
COS I WILL FUCK YOU IN THE ASS
I'LL CHANGE YOUR LIFE
amazing
crowds at festivals are much rowdier
thats a given. i thought homme was supposed to be in some hard rocking band. i'm sure he has had things thrown at him before, you little prick.
so you are supposed to just take people throwing shit at you?
and being in a hard rocking band, you would expect the lead singer to react to having stuff thrown at him wouldnt you?
no need to insult me personally is there?
2.
he's ill you bellend!
;)
dang!
forgot about that.
i meant it in a 'you silly you missed the point'
kind of way
i was only joking
you little prick :)
nevermind
it's only monday, plenty of other disputes to come :)
What's with you guys
talking about him like he's He-Man?
This video confirms that he's a bit of a dick when he gets stroppy and that's pretty much it.
he is better than he-man
Well
On a 1 to 5 scale (5 being excessive)of retaliation, I'd rate that a 2.
This is a 5
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zOA8i9UnEQ
^i like that a lot!
That's
just assult. What a prick.
if you dont fight
you're a faker
also, if you're very average at music like jay reatard, punch a drunk man. you'll get on a drowned in sound thread
eurgh taking it too far
this makes me find Josh Homme slightly less hot, but only slightly.
billy talent
the voice of reason?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=61pxbGHAXys&feature=related
their wisdom belies the insane cubic haircut..
thats what i was trying to say!
IM THE VOICE OF REASON! I AM!
oh yeah!
he's from this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlPVuIDsCag
