In fact, the Palm Desert band embarked on an authentic Canadian leg of their tour in April The End Is Nero which will bring him to 12 cities, including Montreal, Saturday, and Quebec, Sunday. We took the opportunity to chat with Troy Van Leeuwen, faithful accomplice for more than 20 years of leader Josh Homme.
