    Josh Homme Facing Knee Surgery Again

    Queens Of The Stone Age frontman Josh Homme has revealed that he faces another knee operation after injuring himself on stage recently.

    Homme - who has already had surgery on the knee after he tore his meniscus on stage two years ago – arrived at last weekend’s T in the Park Festival in Scotland with a walking stick.

    Despite his physical discomfort, Homme still went on to play an energetic set.

    The singer told Stereo Warning about the injury: “It's messed up bad. It hurts. I gotta go home and have surgery again. On stage in hurts a lot. I have at least three or four moments a set where it feels like boulders underwater when they hit each other."

    Despite the injury, Homme has vowed to finish Queen Of The Stone Age’s touring commitments this summer in America before he has the operation.

    He added: "What do I do, go home? I gotta finish what I started. Everyone cancels all the time for hurting their finger and stuff like that, that's not me."

    Homme waited just two days before returning to action following his knee surgery in 2005.
