Tickets go on general sale on July 11.
Queens Of The Stone Age will co-headline Reading and Leeds Festivals this August withParamore. They joinArctic Monkeys andBlink-182 on the top of the bill. It will be both Queens Of The Stone Age and Paramore’s only UK festival appearances of 2014.

The set featured a number of covers, including Dean Martin’s ‘Memories Are Made Of This’, Marty Wilde’s ‘Bad Boy’ and ‘Dark As A Dungeon’, made famous byJohnny Cash when he, as Homme explained, “played it in jail to a bunch of convicts.” Homme alsoplayed a new song called ‘Villains Of Circumstance’, which he claimed to have “made up 30 minutes ago”.
