A couple of years ago when I stepped back from PJ a bit I got a email from livechilipeppers about a free live ep and then a free live show. I downloaded those and got back into them. I had SA but never really get into it. Then I found some shows from 2006-2007 and it got me back into the record. John's playing was incredible around this era.

Glad to see some love for One Hot Minute. I always like that one, it may even be my favorite.

The show was really good, although short in comparison to PJ. They played some of my favorites, though. Wet Sand was amazing to see. Dark Neccessities, Go Robot, Detroit and Goodbye Angels from the new record were pretty awesome as well. Soul To Squeeze and I Like Dirt were pleasant surprises. Great singalongs for most of the night. The jams in between songs are definitely highlights. Flea is such an inspiration. Josh Klinghoffer blew me away. He fits in perfectly and is really coming into his own with the band. I was also really happy we got Look Around from I'm With You.

BabyMetal was perhaps the most interesting band I've ever seen. Costume Metal guys fronted by 3 Japanese teenage girls doing synchronized dances and vocals. One of the early highlights was seeing Jack Irons play, though. He done about a 20 minute set featuring his drumming and programmed sounds. He also had some cool visuals on the screen. The RHCP light show was pretty cool, too. PNC is one loud arena. Can't wait to buy the recording of this show!

Listening to Californication after a long long time...man, i love this one. The band sounds so tight and the melodies are beautiful.
John´s guitars in Scar Tissue are great.

Actually, I really like The Getaway too. The last :30 are sublime.

Getaway and Necessities are probably the only songs that save the album.
Everything else is from extremely average do awful.

I really liked The Getaway.
Its a fine album, a little straightforward maybe and downtempo, but there are cool things here and there.

i'll give it up to the chili peppers, their bonnaroo set was probably my favorite of that weekend. i'd seen them twice before in the last ten years and wasn't all that impressed, so my expectations weren't exactly high. i even considered just not going and finding something else to do. but i'm glad i did go. they were just on point that night and i liked the song selection (though nothing pre-bssm, and i knew none of the most recent songs). aeroplane was a nice surprise, i'd thought they'd abandoned that one long ago. it turned out to be just a fun show, something their previous shows i'd seen were not.

Intro Jam
Can't Stop
Dani California
Scar Tissue
Dark Necessities
The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie
I Wanna Be Your Dog (The Stooges)
Right On Time
Go Robot
Californication
What Is Soul? (Funkadelic)
Aeroplane
Snow ((Hey Oh))
Suck My Kiss
Soul To Squeeze
By The Way
-----
Goodbye Angels
Give It Away

We have firmly established there are no more than three cool things on this album.

And there is no room for dissent.
