THREE Impossible Daffodils

Spinning in the daffodils, dizzy from a dozen twirls.

Here’s an unexpected, impossibly difficult solo acoustic performance for your Sunday morning. Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age, Them Crooked Vultures, Eagles of Death Metal, etc) plays "Spinning In Daffodils” in a garden on an old Gibson as part of the virtual Lollapalooza 2020 festivities.
