Finally an official announcement what's going on with Mark. It's not too informative - when has anything ever been clear with QOTSA and Mark - but it's official, which is all I at least need right now. So, take a look at this, it's from qotsa.com: "For a little bit... For a little bit... Mark Lanegan is taking a brief sebatical from the ongoing Queens tour due to exhaustion. The band would like to wish a speedy recovery, so that he can return back tour the touring Queens circus ASAP. Joshua & Mark have already been in discussions to figure out when Mark will be able to return. And finally the band stresses that all other rumors regarding this subject should be written down, burned & the ashes pushed in to your eyes so that you are unable to find your watercooler/sewing circle. Thank you, The Dutchess of Insider." I really hope Mark is going to be Ok and probably "a brief sebatical" is what he really needs right now. By the way, if you don't have a clue what this is all about, take a look at these earlier posts: onewhiskey.proboards2.com/index.cgi?board=boarda&action=display&n=1&thread=220onewhiskey.proboards2.com/index.cgi?board=boarda&action=display&n=1&thread=214 |

"Exhaustion" is the entertainment industry's code word for fucked up behavior.. ie...drugs, alcoholism, or whatever. Frankly, I can't imagine how hard it is to be clean and be a musician, especially with a band like Queens, where it's a party every night on tour.

I'm glad to see this. It sounded like Mark wanted to do the whole tour, and we certainly want him to take Queens' money to finance his next solo record.  |

All I can say is when I saw him with Queens last month he looked 10 times better than he did last year. But honestly he seemed bored being on stage with them. The show I went to in Virginia people were not very happy with it. People were screaming that it sucked and a lot of people afterward were really really dissapointed, not with Mark, but with the songs they played and the band's "lack of enthusiasm". I saw Brody Dalle (who is dating josh homme) up next to the guy doing the sound and she was drinking water what i'm trying to say is she wasn't partying at all not that the rest of the band wouldn't be... but it just was a weird show. There was no spark and maybe Mark is just over it. Maybe the audience's
reaction to the show made him want to get out. Or maybe Brody Dalle really is another YOKO ONO and wants to break up the band (it's a joke that was a rumor for a while) But last year when I saw Queens Josh was not hanging out at ALL with Mark. After the show Nick, and Troy were with Mark and they got on the bus together they seemed close. Maybe Mark is realizing that he misses Nick. I have to say Nick did bring magic to the band....

To many maybes for me.
Stop the rumoring and the guessing and calm down.
It's annoying. Not only for Mark Lanegan.

Maybe his kitten died and he's sad. Maybe we should make him a colorful unicorn poster and send it to him.
Maybe Jones is right.
Maybe I need a unicorn. And a kitten. Because one day I'm going to be a champion figure skater and own a pony farm.
I'm sick right now, and so I may be acting strangely...

They crap everywhere & they're bitey, or so I'm told ......I'd farm rocks, no feeding, no watering and if you lose one, there's a billion others to choose from |

Maybe his kitten died and he's sad. I can see the threads - Who killed Lanegan's kitten? And why? Maybe it was Nick Oliveri because he's jealous...maybe it just ate all the drugs on the tour bus...maybe Josh was accidentally stomping on it. |
