Queens Of The Stone Age kicked off their much-anticipated European tour this week, opening for System Of A Down at the Strawberry Arena in Stockholm. Fans were in for a treat as the band performed “Run, Pig, Run” for the first time in 18 years, marking a significant moment for both the group and their dedicated followers.

The night began with a quirky recording of “Afternoon Delight” that set the stage for Josh Homme and his crew. Following that nostalgic intro, they launched into the Era Vulgaris standout, sending the crowd into a frenzy. In addition to this long-awaited performance, the band also treated fans to “The Fun Machine Took A Shit And Died,” which hadn’t been played live since 2014.

With these surprise tracks, QOTSA proves once again that they’re not just a band but a powerful force in rock music. Stay tuned as they continue their tour, and keep an eye out for more unexpected gems from their impressive catalog.
