I had never heard of him. Did see Queens of the Stone Age on network TV a couple of times, didn't care for the music.

Show of hands.  How many of us look to Nick Oliveri as their idol?   :o

He was actually kicked out of QOTSA for beating his wife. Twice.

Good for them for kicking his ass out!  Shame on them for ever taking him back >:(  Wife beaters and animal abusers have a special place reserved for them in hell.

Amen!

Am I correct in remembering that heroin use was also his problem?

IIRC, they didn't know if the stories they were hearing about him beating her were true so they warned him that they better not be. When they were confirmed, he was tossed out. It was huge deal because he was also in Kyuss, QOTSA's predecessor.

Am I correct in remembering that heroin use was also his problem?

I heard rumors that both he and his then-wife were using and that's what the fights were over, but I've also heard that refuted.
