Anthony Kiedis was on-one for a while there... I remember watching that Vh1 special they had on him, and he was all in hidehout in his room all coked out.
Yup, Red Hot Chilli Peppers are one of the greatest bands. All of their albums have been very good and they adapt with the times. The songs "Under The Bridge" and "My Friends" are two of my favorite songs in any genre of music.
Shit the peppers are my favorite band period. Maybe because they intergrate that funk sound into the music? I don't know, since I picked up an album years ago I've never looked back.
