Three former members of the legendary stoner rock band Kyuss, vocalist John Garcia, bass player Nick Oliveri and drummer Brant Bjork, will be embarking on a tour of Europe next year. Founding guitarist Josh Homme will not be taking part in the tour, which is expected to be because of his commitment to Queens Of The Stone Age, the band in which he performs vocal and guitar duties. Replacing him on the trek will be guitarist Bruno Fevery. This is the closest the band has come to a reunion since they called it a day in 1995.

Like most rock/metal bands, they probably have a stronger following in Europe.

In some cases I'm not so sure that it's all about being more popular in Europe. For certain styles, that's definitely the case. But there's got to be something else at work here. If the band isn't piggy backing off of the summer festival circuit, why is it profitable to tour Europe instead of the states? Smaller area to travel with dense populations? Cultural differences leading to more ticket sales? (America being about the newest trends mostly?) I really don't get it sometimes.
