i guess this means we'll be seeing a new QOTSA album in the near future also

I've read the new QotSA album is gonna be out this June, so yes, though its only rumours the fact they'll be touring gives extra weight. See the Wikipedia page on it.

Jesus, I might actually fly in for this one. Is anyone here going? I've recently come into a bit of cash so I'm raring to fly.

I'll be going though as I've already seen White Stripes and QotSA I might not go that day and save it for the weekend. That said I'd be dead keen to hear their new stuff... decisions decisions... :S
