Queens of the Stone Age will open a 18-date U.S. arena run on May 1, 2027 at Viejas Arena in San Diego, with Pixies and Wheelchair Sports Camp opening every show. The announcement lands days after the band gave their new single "Where the Goth Girls At?" its live debut on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
The tour supports Perfecth, the follow-up to 2023's In Times New Roman…, which arrives October 30 via Matador. Josh Homme and company have already mapped a global route: Iceland in October 2026, Japan and Asia in November and December, then Australia and New Zealand in December before Latin America in March 2027.
What does the new single sound like?
"Where the Goth Girls At?" came out last month with a video starring comedian Steve Agee, dancer Scarlett Kapella, and singer-actress Lou Lou Safran. The Fallon performance marked its first live outing, and by the source's account it's a severe one — the track leans hard, not soft.
The record is the band's first since In Times New Roman… three years ago. That gap sets up the 2027 dates as the album's proper American showcase.
