QOTSA me up

EricTheWeary

I seem to be going to see Queens of the Stone Age this weekend with my sons. 
I know basically SFA about them. Four songs I can get in my head between now and Sunday? The ones where everyone joins in the chorus or mimes a plane taking off or whatever they do.
Cheers!

Albums 'Rated R' and 'Songs For The Deaf' for me!

UnclePsychosis

Four songs?

No One Knows
First It Giveth
A Song For The Dead
Little Sister

I make no apologies for limiting those to their earlier efforts.

This. Became too polished for me since.

LPManic

4 songs that are the best and they play:

No one Knows
I Sat by the Ocean
Make it Wit Chu
Go with the Flow

4 essential deeper cuts:

Song for the Dead
I Appear Missing (don’t normally play this live on this tour)
Little Sister
Smooth Sailing

Incredible band to see live. Technically top notch.

Jonathangus

I'll add Feel Good Hit of the Summer.

Brad

Lost Art Of Keeping A Secret.

Okay this feels like a playlist between now and Sunday. Many thanks for the other answers everyone they just seem to be a bit more about what you'd like to hear rather than what they will play. 

Support are Deep Tan and The Chats. No idea who they are so they'll have to be taken as they come.

I haven't kept up with their recent releases but I think the chaps have mentioned all the good stuff off the first two or three albums.

You should be able to fit all the albums in between now and Sunday. Show some commitment! I’m seeing them day after tomorrow. COME ON, THE QUEENS!

The whole back catalogue. It’s a gig. 

Philly_Q

Or don't bother and listen to all the Kyuss albums instead.  Won't prepare you for the gig, but so what.

Or this hell of a gig

Self titled first album is the best imo. Just listen to that. Never bettered. Rated R is wicked too, and Songs for the Deaf has its moments. Everything since has been utter pish.

Naaaw. Era Vulgaris and Like Clockwork have some absolute bangers on. Even Lullabies to Paralyze, which was a stumble imo.

I’m mostly not going to be at home between now and Sunday so I need to narrow it down a bit.

Songs for the deaf is their biggest album. Listen to that. They’ll play a few from it (and more from the first two records). It’s a great live experience - one of the best.

Love Queens. The Chats are good fun too

MagicPigDetective

God is on the Radio was phenomenal at Glasto this year (on telly, I wasn't there)... with a long jam at the end. That's my shout

Placidcasual79

This is the lead single off there most recent album - the one they are touring now - and also their best so far imho....have a good night @EricTheWeary ;
