the chili peppers kick so much ass. even YOUR ass. some say they're shit. they can go to hell.
has anyone seen them live?
does anyone own any of their older albums?
what do YOU think about them?
is anyone here a hardcore fan?

check out their old stuff before you critisize.




they were the shit, and they still are.

Criticize? Never!

I love them! I'm more into the older stuff though. I haven't yet gotten myself to buy 'Stadium Arcadium' but I like what I've heard so far.

I really like Blood sugar sex magik

Lawl.

I hate them, too

Say what you will about the band collectively.....

But don't single out Flea. The guy's got himself some serious bass skills, yo.

Everybody loves him. I don't get why! He's just a bassist. He isn't OH THE bassist

he's one of the best ever....like the dude from Rancid.....a god among insects

oh COME ON, he's not that talented!
But well.
We love you Flea

wtf?

in the bass guitar-playing world

Rancid are terrible musicians.

oh, come on, dan, please say you don't mean that

Rancid are infact, rancid.

OH TEH IRONY.

you're right, they are pretty shit lately

Lately?

yeah, lately....they used to be good, and I used to be 14, but that ship has now sailed...

ihow many pointless, rendundant, band threads are you going to spam us with!

ooh don't worry, there's many more to come

good, I expect more from you!

YEAAAH!!!!!!

and stop talking about rancid, fools.

RHCP are pretty wanky.

I like a few songs

- Breaking the Girl
- Higher Ground (great cover)
- Under the Bridge (I know, it's cliche to have this song on your list, but come on, it's a good song)
- Soul to Squeeze

I don't think it's cliche.

They're a'right. I have Dani California stuck in my head from time to time.

A'ight *

Thanks.

Well, it was my lame attempt to sound more colloquial.

There good Flea kicks ass on Bass. I appreciate.

I appreciate! very much so. I wish I went to their concert this year. garghsgrha.

It's just all so good. And meaningful and, the about the sensation. and makes me wish I lived in L.A. when they were breaking onto the scene.
Talented kids, these ones.

I just read that and it doesnt make sense.
but maybe it doesnt have to. how bout that?

Fleas house burned down.

edit: or did it?

phew. i got worried. because he was friends with River and probably had pictures of them together and things of that nature. and i dont know, its silly i guess

No, it's not...
I can imagine what my reaction would be if, let's say, Thom's or Jonny's house burned down... ( )
I don't think I would be able to bear it

Lol you could offer for them to stay with you until their houses are built again

Well, that would be an option I suppose

(but, as my flat is rather small, they would have to share a bed, I'm afraid )

lol!

I do adore the red hots..
They're great.. Especially the earlier albums are so damn nice.. Purely funky, flea's bass cuts the air, it's trully great.
I like the newer songs too.. If it wasn't for Californication RHCP would have disappeared form the sytage maybe..
I think Californication is defintely their best album..

The best songs are maybe not as known as the latest stuff.
I'd reckon my songs fav list would go like this:
Knock Me Down
Jungle Man
Fight Like a Brave
Yertle The turtle
Police hElicopter
Taste the pain
pretty little ditty
Nobody Weird Like Me
Around the world
Transcending
Soul to squeeze
...
and many many more


PS: ILOVETHEHIVES, why don't you do a HIVES fan thread>!> I reckon they're trully great too!!! I love them The new album is pure class again..

Everyone likes RHCP. You just have to, but...
I saw them live at Roskilde in July, and it was very, VERY disappointing. Anthony obviously didn't want to be there, it looked like he didn't have fun at all. And he was wearing this psycho poncho thing and a orange cap. John was pretty good, though. And they were doing a lot of instrumentals, but a bit too much. We stood in line for 9 hours and we were in the front, in the middle. But man, it wasn't really worth those 9 hours.
But still, gotta like them.
