Saw them warm up for Metallica on their Australian tour when I was 16 in 92, at their prime and man they were good. Green machine https://youtu.be/R-MSfd2S7lo and 50 million years trip https://youtu.be/iGWrO2KTBwA

Their last album doesn’t get much love but has 2 of my favourites catamaran https://youtu.be/qnTW7yqtyxk and el rodeo https://youtu.be/qnTW7yqtyxk

Size Queen and One Inch man are my favourite Kyuss songs. From that last album. I saw Kyuss Lives in 2011. I was just starting to go to shows around the time they broke up, so I missed the chance to see the OG lineups, but for bands of the genre of that era I did manage to see Monster Magnet with Fu Manchu opening. That was the Dopes to Infinity/Daredevil albums for each. Both bands were putting out excellent music at the time and continued to put out great stuff for years afterwards.

My wife surprised me with Kyuss Lives tickets. I tried buying tickets but they sold out and was bummed about it for months but she surprised me with the tickets a week before the show 😍😍😍😍

That's how I found them as well, at the Melbourne gig. Thought they were awesome.

Scott Reeder played in long white basketball socks and they slowly came off his feet throughout the gig. By the last song he had these super long floppy things hanging off the end of his feet. Was hilarious.

And then Metallica played. Faaaaarrrrkkkk.

One of my all time favourite gigs.

Catamaran is a cover of Yawning Man. And yet it sounds like a Kyuss song.
