Led Zeppelin and Queens of the Stone Age supergroup


Dave Grohl, John Paul Jones and Josh Homme has been named are long-rumoured supergroup featuring, and the band are set to make their live debut this weekend.
The trio, whose collaboration was leaked last month, are called Them Crooked Vultures. They will apparently make their worldwide debut on Sunday (9 August) at an afterparty for the Lollapalooza festival in Chicago.
A holding site in what is believed to be the new band's name was launched last week without announcement, with the estlabish message "deserve the future".

Then on Tuesday, fans on the Lollapolooza mailing list were invited to apply for tickets for a show at the Metro Venue this Sunday. Although no band name is listed, the logos for Foo Fighters, Queens of the Stone Age and Led Zeppelin appear alongside each other. Tickets go on sale at 10am on Thursday (6 August) and are limited to two per person.
Sources close to Grohl, Homme and Jones are insisting that the gig does not represent confirmation that the supergroup will continue to play live or will necessarily lead to an album, saying that the band is merely "a few friends talking". But it is understood that the musicians have been working together on and off for the last three years.
