There's been some pretty excitable tweeting from Melkweg tonight. #tcv if you feel like making yourself ill wishing you'd been there :-)

ETA: Over on their forum we are discussing the meaning, and the word score, of the briefly in-shot scrabble board (see video clip above). This band need to get a record out, and tour, before we all disappear up our own arses for want of something better to do :-)

Tickets for the live debut of Them Crooked Vultures – the supergroup featuring Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl, Queens of the Stone Age’s Josh Homme and Led Zeppelin bassist John Paul Jones – reportedly sold out in three-minutes after they went on sale in Chicago on Thursday morning.

The all-star band, which has apparently been in the works for four years, is set to play a post-Lollapalooza gig at 11:59 p.m. on Sunday at the Metro.

Rolling Stone is reporting that Them Crooked Vultures will release an album called "Never Deserved the Future" on Oct. 23, but other details about the group remain slim. The band's MySpace, Twitter and Facebook pages directs visitors back to the main site, which in turn directs visitors to its MySpace, Twitter and Facebook pages.

Even the credibility of a promo clip that popped up on YouTube was questioned (and removed from the site). Either way, the members of Chickenfoot must be shaking in their boots.

From Rolling Stone:

Them Crooked Vultures continue to randomly pop up for performances in Europe, and video from the new supergroup’s concerts continue to be Americans’ only method of hearing the band’s music (save for their post-Lollapalooza gig in Chicago that marked their live debut). Up top we have “Caligulove,” another new track from Queens of the Stone Age’s Josh Homme, Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl and Led Zeppelin bassist John Paul Jones. As opposed to the propulsive driving force that is “Nobody Loves Me and Neither Do I,” “Caligulove” boasts a slower, grungier sound reminiscent of Facelift-era Alice in Chains, with Jones momentarily ditching his bass to step in behind the organ.

The Vultures continue to taunt fans with possible concert venues by using the Google Earth feature on their official Website, and the latest rumors have the band opening up for the Arctic Monkeys — Homme produced the Monkeys’ new album Humbug — tonight at London’s Brixton Academy.

Them Crooked Vultures are also rumored to be playing the Reading and Leeds Festivals this weekend — in perfect casting, Homme buddies Arctic Monkeys and Eagles of Death Metal are booked for the same day at both fests — but so far nothing has been confirmed.

From someone at the TCV board, if anyone's interested in hearing more (not bad quality considering), it's a rip from the Melkweg show:

Two of my Foo board friends saw them open for the Arctic Monkeys in Brixton tonight; strong (ie virtually confirmed) rumours that they'll be at Reading/Leeds this weekend. Lucky bastards. :twisted:

ARRGGHHH!!! :x

It wouldn't surprise me if one of my UK Foo friends made the trip to Paris; she went to Amsterdam. AND last night. AND she'll be here in LA in October, so knowing her luck they'll announce a raft of dates in and around LA just as she steps off the plane. :mrgreen:
