I sent that, a bit too nerdy to make the cut I think :
For your fans one of your most legendary concerts took place in Urbino on 2nd August 2002 (http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/mark-lanegan/2002/fortezza-albornoz-urbino-italy-63d51e6f.html) on a day off during a Queens of the Stone Age tour, with Qotsa members on bass and guitar. You played songs you never played again, and in particular it includes a song you only performed once titled “Never Come Down”, excerpts from which ended up on the Them Crooked Vultures song “Spinning in Daffodils”. Can you shed any light on that show and that song?

^That is a very good question, and I hope he would answer it, and more like that.

There's a couple of funny questions from Greg Dulli & Jack Endino (as well as the most concrete thing about a 2nd Gutter Twins record), but there's a huge emphasis on the distant past rather than what he's doing now...

Cool - I never knew about the TCV excerpts - will listen tomorrow - don't think I have even heard the song just its legend:) Wow, I've never heard this before. Just for speculation's sake, I will venture an informed guess. I would reckon this song was written by Homme during the Songs for the Deaf tour in hopes of having Lanegan sing it on the next Qotsa record. Of course, Lanegan ended up parting ways with QOTSA and this song was placed on the shelf until Homme finally repurposed it. That would explain why there is no credit to Lanegan on the TCV album. |

Ah - that was an Alain Johannes thing that he used later with TCV. Used to be known on the old official Lanegan messageboard as "Shoney's Song"  |

Oh, thank you for the info. Now that you say that, I can definitely hear the Alain sound in that melody.

Well they did not take any of my 3 questions! Did someone from the board had more chance?
Great interview by the way and funny piece from JAck Endino and Greg Dulli indeed
