Under The Bridge (RHCP)

[KRASH]

Can i just start off and say, anyone who spams this thread will be reported and i'll do everything in my power to get a proper ban put in place.


From http://www.sputnikmusic.com/bands.php?bandid=179Sputnik Music

The Red Hot Chili Peppers are a band born and bred in LA. School friends Anthony Kiedis (vox) and Mike Balzary (Flea), Jack Irons (drums) and Hillel Slovak (Guitar) formed a band that quiickly became popular on the LA live circuit for their raucous, lively and often naked performances.

After three reasonably successful albums (RHCP, Freaky Styley and Uplift Mofo), Hillel died of a heroine overdose (drugs being an issue that had and would plague the band for years). Jack left, Kiedis went into rehab.

Several years later they got back together, recruiting long time fan John Frusciante, an eighteen year old funk master who's fast paced playing and mature riff work would take their 1989 album Mother's Milk to the mainstream audience. Chad Smith also joined the ranks as drummer.

The 90's marked a decade of change, peaks and troughs for the Chilis. Their masterwork Blood Sugar Sex Magik was massive, too massive for John (who had always wanted the Chilis to stay true to their roots), he left the band for a full time career as a heroine addict. The 1995 album with Jane's Addiction's Dave Navarro in the guitar slot was successful at the time, but is now recognised (quite wronly IMO) as a poor move for the Chilis, moving to a heavier and more guitar oriented metal.

Frusciante (clean after nearly dying many times) was drawn back to the band and in 99 they created their most successful, more mainstream rock album Californication. By The Way followed in 2002, showing off a more mature and experimental side of the Chilis.

The ever lasting chemistry between the guitarrists of the Chili's and virtuoso bass of Flea, coupled with the boistrous lyrics of Kiedis and the pounding rythms of Chad Smith have made a plethora of great songs and the Chilis are now one of the biggest stadium acts in the world. Plus they ****ing rule!

When's the new album due?
It's been delayed a few times hasn't it?

I heard this summer sometime but no official date.

[Happy]

It's released most places on May 9, I think, so there's still some time left before we get hold of it. I'm not sure it's ever been formally delayed, but I know that a lot of people expected it last year, and it will have been 4 years since By The Way when we finally get hold of it.
Oh good. I can't wait.

[Magical_Mystery_Tour]

I used to be really into the Chillies in grade 8 or so, but then I met the Beatles, and the Chillies got put in the background. They are a good band I just don't listen to them much anymore. If the new album is good maybe that will re-spark my interest in them.

[KRASH]

Yeah, that was one of my least favourite songs from By The Way. It just kind of flops along and doesn't really go anywhere. I'm not really sure why they released it as a single, to be honest, given how many good songs there were on the album.

May 8th in UK
and May 9th USA

to be precise.....check out RHCP (www.redhotchilipeppers.com)

[KRASH]

is anyone going out to buy it, i may just order it on ebay....but i wont get it on the day it comes out will i?

it'll probably take 2-3 days

[black guy]

Not many bands can pull off a double album, and I don't know if the Chili Peppers can really do it, to be honest.
They aren't releasing it as a double album anymore. There's going to be something like 13 different version of the cd, all the same except for a single track. The extra track you get depends on what store you buy it from.

[lionelhutz88]

I only like tem when they funky. Their real old stuff is pretty good.

[GenuineImitation]

I like the Peppers. They aren't my favorite band, but they are good for a listen every once in awhile.

its not, it was going to be 3 CD's but they cut it back to two

[Super Nintendo]

john is my favorite guitarist, then alexi laiho but john's style is amazing to me.

[Shaft!]

I've always enjoyed funkier music, so their earlier stuff is like Jesus to me. They say that this one is noticeably more funky, and so I eagerly wait with much anticipation for this.

[guitrguy]

I personally think John has much more feel and knowledge then Alexi has on guitar. I love the solo in Scar Tissue.

[EightMilesHigh]

I think the Chili Peppers rule. Arguably one of the most innovative bands of the last twenty-five years.

I agree that John is really the heart of the band right now, even though it's always a group effort. He can create these explosive, funky guitar riffs in Give It Away then beautiful, melodic guitar pieces like in Scar Tissue.

I'm definitely looking forward to their album. If it's like their more recenty, melodic work, that'd be cool, but it would be really awesome if they went back to their super funky roots.

[guitrguy]

The guitar parts the John plays in TMV's L'via L'viaquez are so awesome.

[black guy]

its not, it was going to be 3 CD's but they cut it back to two
oops, i read an article wrong. my bad. i was really hoping they wouldn't go with the double album idea too.

edit - althought the bonus track thing is still true.

[Sausage_Wielder]

There's a bunch of chili's fanboys on here.

[Romanticide]

is it true that they're gonna include the studio recorded versions of Rolling Sly Stone and Leverage of Space on Stadium? i heard it from somewhere...is it true?

[Leper]

I wouldn't really consider myself a huge fan of RHCP, as I don't have any of their albums or anything. But their singles always amaze me, usually very fresh sounding and different from everything else. New music always seems to be refreshed a little when the Chili's come out with a new album IMO.

[Super Nintendo]

scar tissue is my favorite song, of all bands.
it just changes my mood when i listen to it:P.

[Shaft!]

My mood always changes with "Soul to Squeeze", "Higher Ground", and "Fight Like a Brave".

[Super Nintendo]

i forgot soul to squeeze

[YouGottaBeCrazy]

Does anyone else think that Universally Speaking is one of the most horrible* depressing songs ever created by man?

*terrible

I feel that way too.

[KRASH]

i have to say that i dont think John is the full power of the band, yes he IS the most creative and all, but he needs flea most of the time to help guide him through, thats why he writes most of the music to the songs with flea sittin' beside him, Chad is as usual drummin' away, doin his job and AK is strolling through with the band, letting John lead, but all togehter, they wouldn't make a worthy band without everyones input, even if some put in more than other members at this point in time.

[Shaft!]

I'm not sure if he'd need Flea, to be fair. His solo work, I've heard, was very good and Flea had no part of it.
I'm not entirely sure I could specify who is the "leading" force behind the Chilis. I think it's a joint op. between Anthony, Flea, and John sometimes. There are songs where each member has their time to shine, so it's sort of hard for me to tell.

[Blizzink]

Hmm, if you wanna get an idea on how the recording process goes, read AK's autobiography. I'm not done reading it yet, but he mentions how when John joined the band, he could just come up with any random verse, and John could write music for it.

im on chapter 5....Deep Kicking

its at the part where they have made RHCP and just protsted their way into getting 2 leather jackets for $200

[EightMilesHigh]

Higher Ground is just nuts. Awesome bass intro, then sweet riffs, and the chorus is just amazing. A really high energy song.

i cant wait for the new album to come out...i've been reading alot about it on some website and it sounds like it's gonna be really good.

[KRASH]

it will be:)

:thumb:

[penelope weird hands]

I hope they mean what they say with bringing back the funk..!
I feel that their last two releases suffered because many of the songs lacked their previous funky efforts.

In any case it will be an interesting listen.
I look forward to it. ;}

[KRASH]

i have a question, is anyone else pissed off that the chili's aren't touring half the great places they did on the last tour.....Ireland in particular!

[7killer7]

i would be pissed off, if i lived in ireland... mind you, i travelled from london to dublin to see them in 2002, so if i can do it, so can everyone else!

No dates set for Australia yet?

what age are you?

im 14

my annual income per year is roughly £75

at the minute i have £10 to buy their new CD....i need at least another £2 before i have a chance of getting it

[7killer7]

you have a good point. i'm older than you and my annual income is at least 300 times yours. i retract my previous statement....

just to rub your nose in it, and to show off, i thought you might like to know i've got tickets to all 11 UK shows. :p

well like i said....who is playing their only gig at Oxegen :)

i wont be going :upset: im australia all summer....but my sister who isnt half the fan i am is gettin free tickets from her bf to see them :upset::upset:

not only that, its gay the fact that their doing like 6 shows at Earls Court

[alexmonty12]

I'm going to Earls Court 17th July :)

[MemoryMachine]

I think the Chili Peppers rule. Arguably one of the most innovative bands of the last twenty-five years.


Ouch. I wouldn't call ripping off Gang of Four, The Jam and Parliament Funkadelic - and then later the Pixies - very innovative.

However, they're a pretty decent band, even if AK's lyrics are godawful. They'll never top BSSM though; that album is da bomb.

[OneEyedMan]

Whats this I hear about the Mars Volta and flea and john in it? I didn't know that!!!!!!!!!!

[Norman]

Love them. One of my favourite bands. I got Mother's Milk today, pretty awesome. My favourite albums are

1.Californication
2.One Hot Minute
3.By The Way
4.Blood Sugar Sex Magic
5.Mother's Milk (close)

Favourite Songs are Otherside, Rightgeous and the Wicked, Soul To Squeeze, Californiation, Under The Bridge, Don't Forget Me, Can't Stop, Easily, and Parallel Universe.

[2muchket!]

RHCP are amazing one of my favorite bands of all time

[I play that funky music]

Unless they come to Pittsburgh PA the closet Ill get to seeing them in concert is my Live at Slane Castle DVD.

[KRASH]

Flea played bass on De-Loused in the Comatorium as they didn't have a bassist at the time. Frusciante appeared on a couple of songs from that album and is working with them again, but they've never been full time members or anything like that.

They should come to Pennyslyvania at some stage, surely...maybe not to Pittsburgh though. :-/ Slane Castle is a fantastic DVD though. It was a great choice of gig to record, since the Ireland Chilis fanbase is crazy.


exactly dude!

im Irish :D



hey guys on a different tone seriousness :eek:...or just excitedness

[nowitzki]

Top 5 albums:
1. Californication
2. Mothers Milk
3. BSSM
4. Uplift Mofo Party Plan
5. Freaky Styley

I really couldn't stand By The Way, or the new songs that were on the greatest hits, so I'm not expecting anything great from the new album.

[2muchket!]

Venice Queen was an amazing closer and song

[Cal_on_drums]

I'm going to Earls Court 17th July :)

Same:cool:
Gonna be sick...
Isn't Kanye West and !!! supporting? What I heard...

[KRASH]

i keep getting annoied...my sister runs up to me and shouts im gonna see RHCP....and rhymes it off...every day :eek:

i need help....it'd be kewl if they ended up in ireland somehow and i walked into them :eek:

[Kyle]

I don't think Kanye is doing the UK dates, but he's gonna be touring with them in the US. I would love it if Kanye did the UK dates aswell though, that would be such a cool gig. !!! are definately one of the supports, I kinda like them...but not that much.

Are you serious about that album cover, the one yu said was the real cover is awful! However I liked the first try out album art.

I'm seeing The Chillis on July 3rd here in Reading, it's gona be sweet...but they won't play Stone Cold Bush :upset:.

[magicbus]

The new album should be pretty sweet, and I'm probably going to see them when they go on tour.

Can any of you guys recommend me one of John's solo album to start with? I'm really diggin' his guitar playing more than I used to pay attention to, and I'd like to here some of his stuff.

[unComfortablyNumb]

I agree that the real album cover is the worst of the three.

They seem like a really good live band, Hyde Park CD is great. I'm hoping they rig somebody good as support too, with James Brown last year and talk of Kanye West...could be a good support act.

AUSTIN, Texas -- Last year, Perry Farrell was just looking to re-establish the good name of his Lollapalooza festival. This year, with a successful run at Chicago's Grant Park already under his glittery belt, he was clearly looking to go for style points. So you can understand why.

As he strode into the press room of the posh Four Seasons Hotel to announce the lineup for Lollapalooza 2006. After all, he's put together a group of artists with style to spare.

Kanye West, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Death Cab For Cutie and Queens of the Stone Age are among the more than 70 acts tapped to perform at this year's Lollapalooza, returning to Chicago August 4-6 (see "Lollapalooza Returning As A Three-Day Festival").

"...what we've ended up with is a beautiful, amazing thing."

This year's "beautiful, amazing thing" is an eclectic mix of hip-hop (West is joined on the bill by Common, British grime MC Lady Sovereign and Gnarls Barkley -- the collaboration between Cee-Lo and producer Danger Mouse), rock (the Flaming Lips, the Shins, Jack White's Raconteurs, Panic! At the Disco)

More artists will be announced in the coming weeks, with organizers promising a grand total of more than 130 acts on 8 stages.

Last year's Lolla -- billed as a return to basics after an ambitious, coast-to-coast touring fest was canceled due to poor ticket sales in 2004 -- was a tremendous success, packing more than 65,000 fans into Grant Park.

"We knew going in last year that it was going to be a challenge, but we pounded away and ended up with something great. But I knew that the formula we had would work, and it did," Farrell said. "And now, the goal this year is to build on it. I like the idea of always expanding, of adding new wings. We don't want anyone to come to this year's Lollapalooza and be like 'Oh, I've seen this already.' "

Tickets for Lollapalooza are now on sale through Lollapalooza.com. A three-day pass costs 130.00.

[KRASH]

I don't think it will be UK, probably just in the states. But Kanye would be a dream, I like him more than the Chillis :o


i dunno anything really about him...lol

Anthony told Rolling Stone, "As we're going back through old leftovers, we're discovering some of the things we left off CALIFORNICATION are as strong as anything on the album."

Fans purchasing these albums on iTunes around the world also have the option of buying and receiving additional bonus materials, including music videos, full album artwork, and 'making of' mini-documentaries in addition to the bonus music. Purchase the full album to receive all these extras.

Stay tuned for much more...

Apparently the Chilis played at Expo '86 in Vancouver (w00t, I live there!). That would have been an awesome show.

[7killer7]

this iTunes bullshit is one of the gayest things i've ever heard. bonus tracks that you can only get when you buy the whole album. surely its the more seasoned fans that are going to be more interested in hearing the bonus tracks, and its pretty likely they're the ones that are going to have the albums already. they're just doing themselves out of money. the percentage of people who are going to pay £8 for an album they've already got is tiny, whereas i'm sure no-one would object to the usual thing of paying 79p for an individual song. tossers.

Can't wait for stadium arcadium :d

Although hopefully this double would be amazing, a treble would of been better IMO.

Can't wait for stadium arcadium :d

Although hopefully this double would be amazing, a treble would of been better IMO.noooo way! I can't stand double albums as it is in general, There is always bound to be loads of filler. a treble album would have been too much for me to handle, and probably really sub-par in places.

[KRASH]

the reason i dont like double albums is cause a lot of the bands put what you see as better songs scattered through the CD's so it makes you listen more to both instead of one, i suppose it can be good and bad in some ways

[EightMilesHigh]

Buuuuuuut, there is also the outside chance it could be mostly (or even all) good tunes.

its all to do with owning a thread about your favourite band :thumb:

and im sharing it :chug:

[KRASH]

There was another sound clip released recently on RHCP.com, its pretty cool, for anyone whoheard it what do you think of it?

check it out, its in there somewhere, http://www.redhotchilipeppers.com/news/news.php?uid=151

Kiedis was saying about how the story about the girl, Dani who was featured in By The Way, is in Dani California, where she from what i have heard commits suicide, he also spoke about Californication - ...A teenage bride with a baby inside.......Destruction leads to a very rough road, But it also breeds creation, And earthquakes are to a girl’s guitar, They are just another good vibration... and how he realises he's been singing about the same same girl for 7 years, from Californication, By The Way, and now Stadium Arcadium, Dani.


any thoughts?

any thoughts?I listened to the interview, and now I'm really anxious on hearing how Dani's story goes.

And the clip is excellent. That solo at the end of the clip sounds promising.

Anyone know when the single is going to be released?

^^that^^
is another version of what the end album art could come out like, although it is unlikely

Random Facts from Kiedis on the album:

- About Dani California: "warm, funky, with an uplifting chorus." - About Dani from By the Way - "This is where she meets her demise"
- About Snow: "About having a blank state to start your life over"
- About Hard to Concentrate: "Sounds like a river."
- About Wet Sand: "About a complicated, dysfunctional woman I've fallen in love with"
- About Charlie: "more profoundly funky than anything we've done in a while"

the link worked fine for me....I'm gonnna take a listen.

edit: Oh, it's nothing really special. It's a cool song and I like it, but nothing to go crazy about. It just sounds like a song that they could have made in any stage of their career, nothing new or particularly 'wow'.

2nd edit: KRASH, that cover seems more like a possible cover for the single.

actually....Warner Germany released that artwork so im thinking they may only have that cover art for German sales, just like they release certain singles in some countries and different singles in different countries

[7killer7]

Does anyone have a recording of Mini Epic? It was the one I most enjoyed out of the new songs on the 2004 tour, but I've never managed to find a recording of it anywhere.

Dani California is premiered on CH4 this wednesday can't wait :)

[JimmyVanHendrixPeppers]

Listen to the new song here http://redhotchilipeppers.com/news/news.php?uid=161

[BringHomeTheBacon]

Personally, to me the song is all chorus, if that makes any sense. The verses don't really seem to fit in with the awesome chorus. It's also got some cool guitar though.

[Evil Clown Liquor]

The song sounds really similair to Tom Petty's "Last Dance with Mary Jane", which is a compliment...

[unComfortablyNumb]

I saw the video today on MTV2. The video was pretty funny and the song was alright. Kiedis looked like Prince in one of the costumes. I don't know if that was intentional or not, but it was still funny.

[Spiritofmosa]

oh noes.... i dont really like the new song.

[YouGottaBeCrazy]

The song sounds really similair to Tom Petty's "Last Dance with Mary Jane", which is a compliment...

I noticed that too.

I like this song, though. Verses are okay, but the chorus is pretty nifty. Can't wait for the album.

[JimmyVanHendrixPeppers]

Anyone else heard the song.... I like it... I was thinking they would release something more intense since it has been four years but they usually wait to do that... plus this is a doulbe album can't wait!

[Oddsen]

The music video is awsome! It is shot through each era of music. Anthony becomes hendrix and kurt cobain. It's kinda hard to describe but the band first is like elvis's band than the beatles than they go to the sychodelic 70's hendrix stuff than like 80's and twisted sister next they are like a punk band, nirvana at mtv unplugged and finally their themselves. It's really creative and cool.

[SirPsych0]

John isn't a great guitarist but the band gels well when he's around

What does everybody think of their new single? Dani California

you can stream it for free at www.redhotchilipeppers.com

I think it's good, but its no comparison to some of their earlier stuff (from BSSM for example)

[Kyle]

John is a great guitarist and the band gels well wheFix'd.

People can often criticise John because he doesn't do anything to flashy, but he plays with feeling and has created some of the most memorable guitar parts of a decade.

[SirPsych0]

People can often criticise John because he doesn't do anything to flashy, but he plays with feeling and has created some of the most memorable guitar parts of a decade.

ok i suppose that's a valid argument, as it is down to opinion, but he isn't technically great

as a singer i thing he's brilliant at adding emotion with his harmonies

also, Kyle are you seeing them at reading?

[Kyle]

ok i suppose that's a valid argument, as it is down to opinion, but he isn't technically great

as a singer i thing he's brilliant at adding emotion with his harmonies

also, Kyle are you seeing them at reading?Yeah he's a great singer too. You're right that he's not technically amazing, but he's not bad, he plays some more flashy stuff live...without going over the top. I prefer his rythem playing more than his lead though really.

Yeah I'm seeing them at Reading, are you? I think theres gonna be quite a few MX'ers down at the Madjeski.

[SirPsych0]

Ye, i play bass, and my friend who's a real good guitarist says he likes his rythm playing but he does detest his lead work..
I dont hate his lead work but on recordings i think they're almost too commercial, in a way, in the recent records theyve made anyway

Im seeing them at earls court on the Monday
Maybe Manchester on one of the days
and Coventry

so definately 2 maybe 3 times

[Kyle]

Thats quite a spread accross the country!

[SirPsych0]

yea, well i live in the midlands, so im kinda in the middle of everywhere!

[JimmyVanHendrixPeppers]

I have really become addicted to this song... cant wait for the new album

[JimmyVanHendrixPeppers]

Anyoneesle diggin this song ?

[Kyle]

I am.

And how can a lead guitar part Sound too comercial, that's a poor argument.

[StrawberryFieldsForever]

Man their new tour is coming here: That means I get to cross another band of the list of bands to see before I die that I made.

Green Day - Check
Rolling Stones
Red Hot Chili Peppers - CHECK NOW BITCH!
Audioslave - Check
Rush
Niel Young - Will be checked, cuz he promised Winnipeg a show!

[Kyle]

it's quite cool, but his playing is way off in places, haha.

i can hardly tab half of the chili peppers stuff, but i've only been playing 2 years, i have an excuse

:lol:

[7killer7]

check out this kid playing along with the dani california song
http://youtube.com/watch?v=6JKfECDWQt4&search=dani%20california

that's awful. the guitar's out of tune, and he's playing the wrong 4th chord in the sequence of 4 in the verses. his attempts at the fills during the verses are terrible too. as are what are supposed to be unison bends after the first chorus. his biggest problem is that he's playing what he thinks is there, rather than listening to what is actually there. not that i'm an advocate of learning and copying songs note for note...

[KRASH]

does anyone notice that in the background the Dani Californa Vid is powering away?

[KRASH]

for anyone who wants a desktop wallpaper of Stadium Arcadium, there it is in 600x800 i think.

Anyone want to talk about the new single... at first I though meh... its good but not great. However, after more and more listening, it has grown on me.

3 guitarists...

:lol:

[KRASH]

now people we all know who the biggest fan here is :smoke: ME!

and btw, 26 tracker....we kinda know, read the thread before you post

all the same :thumb:

I love the Peppers, and I enjoy "Dani California" a lot. I liked the bassline, the lyrics, the solos, and especially the chorus.
A lot of people apparently don't like it too much, but to each their own.
I'm looking forward to the album, and I'd love to see them in Philly. It'd only be, what, a 12 hour long drive.
Anyone hear anything else off of the album through any leaks?

found it listen to the bootlegs here! http://www.utbrocks.com/rhcp.html

what a legend the owner of that site is! putting up the b-sides that iTunes are trying to rip everyone off with! although he did put Runaway up twice, once instead of Bicycle Song. If anyone has Bicycle Song as an mp3, i'd be very grateful if you could send me it...

And how good is Runaway?! I can't believe it didn't make it onto the album. It's better than at least half the songs on BTW, in my opinion.

[Hourglass]

Does anyone have a release date for the new album? just wonderin so I can get it the day it comes out lol.

*is sad*

[7killer7]

May 8th Europe
May 9th US

Much better than the other one. And those guitars where pretty nice.

Did anyone rip the performance that was aired at some channel yesterday?

[JimmyVanHendrixPeppers]

Anyone heard "tell me baby" yet?

[rockin_ryan]

Anthony was born in michigan, not LA. He lved with mis mother in Grand Rapids, Michigan. At age 12 (i think) he moved to LA with his Father, who was the biggest Drug dealer at the time, Selling coke to The Who and Jim Morroson. He was good friends with Keith Moon.

That was interesting yet random

[blue3]

dani california is really good i think im beginning to be obsesed with it :pThe video's cool.

[Happy]

Yeah. It's one of the best videos I've seen.
I was a bit disappointed they didn't dress up as metalheads and headbang in it though :(

[!MuDvAyNiAn!]

it is an amazing video, quite funny. Are they suppose to be taking the piss or just having a laugh? Can u tell me who they are dressing up as, just like this:
1- Elvis
2- ???
3- ???

cos theres quite a few i cant figure out

[GenuineImitation]

I just heard there new single, Dani California I believe, and it was very good. I hope the rest of the album is of the same quality or better (Im sure it is).

[!MuDvAyNiAn!]

yeah man, if they make the rest of the album as good as dani california its going to be a big success, a great album

There's a few that I think are supposed to be a bit ambiguous, as I think they're representing particular era's in the history of music, as opposed to a few of the others which are clearly specific bands (e.g Misfits, Nirvana)

1 - Elvis
2 - Beatles
3 - Jimi Hendrix / Cream / general psychedelic
4 - Parliament / Funkadelic
5 - Iggy Pop / Bowie
6 - Sex Pistols / The Clash
7 - The Misfits
8 - Poison
9 - Nirvana
10 - Themselves

[ChrisAdlerisGod]

They are good when they play that funky ****. But when they go all emotional thier music gets boring IMO.

[GenuineImitation]

yeah man, if they make the rest of the album as good as dani california its going to be a big success, a great album


I think it will be a big success even if the rest of the album isn't as good.

I despised their old (funk) stuff, i really hated. I think they just keep gettin better after every album, thats my opinion anyway...


I think it will be a big success even if the rest of the album isn't as good.

I agree but I meant if they are all as good as Dani California then the album will be amazing

[KRASH]

[Josh]

i would go and see them at Manchester on the 12th July, but no way if tickets are going to be £40, before the extortionate ticketmaster fees!!

[JimmyVanHendrixPeppers]

It pissed me of when I read the flea-mail and he bashed the president. He should keep his political views to himself or present them in a manner where he does not look like an ignorant 12yr old.

why on earth should he keep them to himself or present them any differently? whatever happened to the land of the free, eh?!? EH?! :thumb:

like 7killer7 said, he should have the right to say what he likes...yes i'll admit with slightly better punctuation and spelling...but we all have the right to go against anything we want, wwe aren't living in facist nations or we don't have a corrupt communist government, were free enough to say what we want, when we want. The thing about someone like Flea saying it is, he is a well known bassist, in a pretty major band, spanning decades. Many people are going to agree with what he says, some will disagree, many people are going to see it, all because he is famous, so it's only right that he states the way he feels about Bush, and lets people think what they want about him, agree or disagree, its your choice


...as for me...i agree with flea...Bush is a total ****tard....here are some random facts and sayings about Bush....

George W. Bush- "I am so very pleased to shake the hand of a man who lost his arm for the Iraq war." :eek: he lost his arm you ****

Did you Know:

George W Bush wanted to bring back the electric chair, all because he grew up with it in his life.

George W Bush resembles an ape way too much to be normal.....sorry, total random

George W Bush choked on a pretzle

George W Bush................Thought that Mexico shared a border with Canada

:rolleyes:

i have made my point? take what you will from it, i think he's an idiot :)


EDIT:- I don't want this thread turning into a Bush appreciation/deappreciation thread, not Under The Bridge

Too late :rolleyes: (I listen to music to get away from political situations and pressuring times. Okay, he does not like President Bush but he should represent his views in a more professional way... not like a baby and cry on the internet when he very well has not done anything to help his cause for Africa).

[Oddsen]

That Fleamail was kinda random. All of a sudden he just starts to talk about bush.

[radiance]

Does anyone know if TMV will be touring with them? I heard it mentioned but haven't seen any news about it.

[KRASH]

i dunno about flea, his mail on religion appealed less to me than the bush talk, it was way to random and he kinda needs to go read the bible


i dunno what he's on about half the time

[JimmyVanHendrixPeppers]

Oh well he's not perfect or I guess you could say he does not develope his thoughts very well but.................. Its April 23rd and the CD come out on the 9th !!!

[Prince of Darkness]

Any leaks yet?

RHCP are one of those bands you have to try before you buy, imo...

[7killer7]

Any leaks yet?

RHCP are one of those bands you have to try before you buy, imo...

they've played 6 or 7 of the new songs live over the last couple of weeks, there are downloads of them on the official site's message boards. they're very good, imo...

[randomthought9]

I'm gonna try and hold out, and not listen to any of the songs till the cd comes out. It's gonna be awesome, and I don't want my first impression to be some crappy leak, I wanna wait for the real thing, as hard as that is.

[JimmyVanHendrixPeppers]

Well I just listened to them and they sound pretty awesome...

[KRASH]

http://www.vh1.com/music/hear_music_first/


hear the whole of stadium arcadium a week before release on that site...Vh1

:thumb:

gonna be a cracker..who's gettin the album first day?

[Oddsen]

I am. My brothers getting his drivers license the day before it comes out, so I'm making him drive me to best buy. He's gonna buy SA and I'm going to but the new Pearl jam album. I am so excited!!!!!!!!

[randomthought9]

Doesn't Stadium Arcadium come out like next week?

[BringHomeTheBacon]

^ 2 weeks: May 9th I believe

[Kyle]

So Ben Harper is gonna be supporting them when I see them at Reading....Sweeeet:D

[Guitarist_]

the b-sides to the dani california single are ****!
anthony was definitely wrong when he said all 38 songs recorded were of equal quality
lets hope SA has alot of better songs and a minimum of fillers

[Happy]

Well let's hope the B-sides aren't representations of what's to come on the album.

[CoNfUzEd12]

Dani California is a one hit wonder all ready i think...RHCP IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!:]

[Prince of Darkness]

It's going to be tough for them not to add fillers to the album with so many songs...

[blue3]

^ 2 weeks: May 9th I believeyeah, presale tickets are May 9th too.

[Kyle]

Dani California is a one hit wonder all readyYour username says it all really...

30 second clips of new songs. not very good sound quality.

[Happy]

Dani California is a one hit wonder all ready i think...RHCP IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!:]
Um.
I think it's just a hit. RHCP arem't One Hit Wonders.

[nowitzki]

I've just watched the video to Dani California, I've got to say I liked it. I wasn't a fan of By The Way, and this seems like a step back in the right direction for me.

[KRASH]

May 8th in UK

9th in USA

anyone ever met them?

[blue3]

I wish.. I'll see them live though.

[guitrguy]

Supposedly they are going on tour with TMV, which would be freaking awesome.
