Josh Humi puts a model on the other night sitting in the green spaces behind the Brain Dead Studios on Verfax Street. Inside the Film Theater, a small crowd, including many friends of Homme and family members “Alive in the Catacombs”, is a short white and white film documenting the voice vocal rock music band, which is the Queens of the Stone of the afternoon, which was played last July in Kachoms, Paris, where an estimated 6 million people are stored under the streets of the French capital. Returning here in the courtyard, the 52 -year -old singer and guitarist contemplates how the fans are likely to interact.
He says, “I am very proud of the movie because he is either” hate “or” sacred – it was very severe. “Nothing is between them.
The inspiration for “Alive in the Catacombs”, which comes with a documentary behind the scenes (and EP of five songs from Friday), extends to two decades to Paris when a long line hindered Homme’s attempt to visit the historical site. However, he sees a certain hair in the fact that the display-with the deportations that were radically stripped of melodies such as “bad guys from circumstances” and “sewing your future”-only met as he found himself in a health crisis that forced queens to postpone the remaining dates in the 2024 round. With Homme recovery of cancer, the band will return to the road this week for its first offers for nearly a year.
How hard to persuade Parisian officials to allow you to shoot at the dead basements?
AF – a nightmare. There is a national situation spread in France, where it asks a question and a first reaction, “I ask him there.” The crossbar, as we call it. We received running for many years.
Are you attracted to nerve spots in general?
I love when music is scary. I remember hearing the doors as a small boy and I am like “stand”. They are very terrifying – I was always obsessed with that. My vision of the queens, when it is perfect, is: there is a hill with the sun behind it, and this paralyzed army comes from homes on the horizon. The town’s residents, “S -, seizure of children.” When we look like this, we are at our best.
What is the place in Los Angeles may be similar to the assistant?
There are some Steinbeck-Y Hobo hotels. In the right light, the Hollywood cemetery forever has a certain fateful beauty. But this is a very simple feeling. I grew up working on the trees farm, and there is something about the unification of the trees farm that I find terrifying. Moreover, the oil fields in Kern Province are similar to the effects of dinosaurs – scabies on the surface of the earth.
It seems reasonable to ask why someone wants in this physical fraudulent form to spend time in a specific place.
After I worked on this best part of 20 years, it is likely that when it finally happens, I will deal with the same issue, which is why it is – I mean that the opportunities are almost zero. This plays on my romantic sides, and I do not see the value in running assumptions about the reason for their occurrence. I prefer to keep it close and say, “I am supposed to be here,” I accept it and I am concerned about it. There was a lot of people who loved me used to say that I shouldn’t do it. I respect that. But he ignores this point – like, how many signs you need?
I saw a movie behind the scenes-
I watched it once, and I cannot see it again. I see how you were my treatment. I know that weakness is the way to go, but I do not do a lot of sorting through things too late – makes me uncomfortable. I am uncomfortable with the documentary.
Why put it?
Because this is what this. You are uncomfortable in the dead basements as well.
You do not play the guitar in the movie. Was it normal for you to sing without carrying one?
This was not in previous years, but it is now normal like anything else. I am a kind of love slowly with guitar. I will only use any tool. I don’t play them well, but this doesn’t really matter – it’s all that will happen to the idea.
Who are some of your models for the type of singing you are doing?
I always loved [Jim] Morrison and his hair. Sometimes, music is not great in the doors, but all of this supports someone I think he is a real poet. Words are the strongest part of that band.
It made me deal with your desire to hear that you are doing an album of standards.
I was talking about this with my old leg today. It is like, “You will not retire”, and I was like, “Oh, yes, I – I will go to Milvin in Palm Springs to be like [sings]”You fly to the moon …”
I grew up in the palm desert. This may be an unstable aspect of your lineage.
Kdes 104.7, child. DJ will be like, “Are you next to the pool? Well, you He should Be. “Robert Evans is very.
Are you the Queens’ songs that you know will not work in the dead basement?
We did not think about it this way. People there, they did not choose to be there, so what do they want to hear them? I have chosen things about the family, acceptance, difficulties in life, the way you feel for the moment that is revealed – and the way you feel at the moment they end. My first idea was: How can I get my knee emotionally and do my best to present something that these people were eager? I felt very religious.
Do you believe in God?
I believe in God, but God is all that I cannot understand.
Do you think there is a hereafter?
I think there is a return to something. Is it like, “Oh my God, Rodney Dangfield!”? This is not what I believe in. But the energy that keeps you alive, cannot simply disappear. You should just go home to the big ball somewhere.

The last time you spoke to you and meI told me that you learned to follow your art with the reckless abandonment of your youth. I wondered how this emerged in your decision to cancel the offers last year after Paris.
By the time when we took steps in the dead basements, we all knew in the band that it had ended. In the morning, we were supposed to play the gun [a few days before the Paris gig]I can no longer take it anymore, so I was like, “take me to the hospital.” But I realized that there is nothing that could happen to me there. I said, “pigeons?” And they made them pull the car and leave us.
Does this seem responsible in the past?
No, because they did not know what was going on and did not have the ability to know. I was like, “I made a mistake – I should continue.” We went to the next offer in Milan because Paris was very close. You are working on something throughout these years, and now you can see it almost. You will turn because it is difficult? You can’t go another two hours? “Quiting yourself is more difficult the first time, and it is easy every time after that.”
Stop.
Is this a mistake? This is the man who brought me, and he is proud to be here tonight. Did you make a mistake or not? I am not sure of what I would have done if I had moved away.
You are hesitant to get very specific about your illness.
It doesn’t matter. Who cares? It was difficult and was dangerous. Big F – Deal.
Queens is about to return on stage.
We will finish what we started. I thought I would get out of the commission for 18 months or two – this is what I was told.
How did you take that?
I was not looking for fifty. But he ended up to seven months. I have changed many things, and I feel good.
Do you write songs?
a lot. The largest part of these dangerous or mentally dangerous situations is that now I feel very vibrant and ready to go. I spent a lot of the most famous bed of bed, and now that I am not, I am like a Rodio bull. Not the contestant – the bull. When that gate is opened, I will destroy.
