Billboard.com is reporting that Josh Homme has revealed for the first time
why he fired longtime friend Nick Oliveri from QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE in
2004. Speaking to Zane Lowe tonight (July 6) on BBC Radio 1, Homme said
he ordered Oliveri to leave the band after he independently confirmed Oliveri
had been physically abusive to his girlfriend.

"A couple years ago, I spoke to Nick about a rumor I heard," Homme recalled. "I said, 'If I ever find out that this is true, I can't know you, man.' Because music and my life are the same thing, there's no rules until something massive happens. was over here with Lanegan and something happened again, and he almost didn't make it out of the country. That's not music anymore." Read more at Billboard.com. [http://www.billboard.com/bb/daily/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1000974365] | ||
