Nick Oliveri rejoined Queens of the Stone Age at a Portland gig for the first time in a decade. See footage below.

Tensions came to a head between Homme and Oliveri that came to a head back in 2004 when Oliveri was ejected from the band. Over the last few years things seem to have calmed down, with Homme guesting on a track from Oliveri's band Mondo Generator as well as the Oliveri contributing to 'If I Had A Tail' from Like Clockwork.

At the gig last night (16 April), Oliveri came out for the encore and rather than playing bass he sung the lead on 'You Think I Ain’t Worth A Dollar, But I Feel Like A Millionaire' and performed on 'The Vampyre of Time and Memory' and 'Song For The Dead'. The band also hug Oliveri as he leaves the stage, leaving any previous bad blood in the dust.
