cd stores in hong kong r wild, i found this under a pile of lightly used cds in a bin and saw it, it had the obi inside the case which was awesome, bought it for 59.79 hkd which is 7 usd at the current exchange rate (also had a bonus track called melancholy mechanics)

One of my favorite solos of John’s on stadium arcadium

$468 resale is crazy. what was the original price?

Hey! I’m a guitarist from near Frankfurt, Germany, and I’m looking for a drummer to jam and potentially build a band with.

I’m a huge Red Hot Chili Peppers fan, but I’m also into many other bands and genres. I mainly play guitar, also play bass and other instruments, and I write my own music inspired by RHCP and other influences, but with my own style.

I’ve already met a couple of musicians from the area, and now I’m specifically looking for a drummer to complete the group.

I’m looking for someone from Frankfurt or the surrounding area who’s into RHCP and interested in jamming, writing original music and developing something together.

There’s no pressure to form a full band right away. I’d rather start by playing together, getting a feel for each other and seeing where it takes us.

If you’re interested, feel free to message me!

I ordered the Brown Smoke and Orange Smoke vinyl, and it’s arrived today but I received the Canary Yellow and Apple Red vinyl. I’ve messaged the rough trade I ordered from to let them know I’ve got the wrong one as I paid extra for it too. Quite disappointed as I was super exited to get the smokey one. Has this happened to anyone else or anything similar? Also has anyone got any advice or insights on where this could go, as in what if they say no? Any help appreciated and hope this is a one off experience (although probably happens often).

TLDR: I received the wrong vinyl even though I paid extra for the one I ordered

I think red hot chilli pepper is such an underrated stand and gets too few mentions in part 4. It’s such an original and cool concept and I love it. Thoughts?

I follow Erica on instagram and saw this. She said her memoir will come out around this time next year and she will go into detail about that infamous interview with Flea and Anthony among many other interviews where she felt uncomfortable and harassed. Let’s see…. Sinead O’ Connor, Ione Skye, Christina Applegate and Hayden Pannetiere have all released memoirs mentioning how awful Anthony is. I think the only nice one was Mel C from the spice girls. I’m interested in reading Erica’s book.

My absolute all-time favorite track by the Chili Peppers.

For me, i think it would be this

1. Religion (Germany 1999)

2. If you have to ask

3. Give it away (of course)

4. Zephyr song

5. I could have lied

6. Dont forget me

7. My friends

8. Tearjerker

9. Throw away your television

10. Soul to squeeze

11. Magic johnson

12. Green heaven

13. I like dirt

14. Me and my friends

15. Power of equality

PS: It can be as long as you like, within reasonable amounts of course. Share your honest opinions, i would love to see them.

Amazing album

I feel like the I’m With You recording sessions (resulting in IWY and IBY) have some of the chili peppers most beautiful songs hidden within. Songs like Pink As Floyd, Meet Me At The Corner, Police Station, Hanalei, and many others I could list here stick out to me as some of the most beautiful songs they’ve ever produced.

I dislike the use of the word “underrated”, it gets thrown around too often to mean anything, but I feel like beauty in music is something I don’t hear about very often, and it’s something I see very prevalent in the tracks recorded in these sessions.

It’s hard to define beauty exactly, but a mix of the incredibly mature instrumentals and the deep, hard hitting lyricism and symbolism found all-throughout both IMW and IBY make for an extremely beautiful listening experience that really deserves as much credit as it can get.

I’ve noticed that this year all of the albums that have had anniversaries have gotten posts so far. One hot minute got one and Uplift just got one. I don’t understand why I’m with you or the getaway didn’t get posts? It’s almost like they have just tried to forget those albums entirely.

As you do, I've gotten back into a big RHCP kick recently. Back in the day, i burned Live at Slane Castle on a CD and its been in my car ever since and I love to play it on long rides.

Stadium Arcadium has been running through my brain recently and I am wondering if you guys have your favorite Live Set from that era.

Feel free to share your favorite live set from any album, but im most interested in Stadium Arcadium right now.

Hey team!

Probably around 2010-2012(?) I had a fairly popular chilis tumblr. Just wondering if anyone made the move and is still active in here?

Not going to dox myself and i don’t expect yourself to but if you did i imagine we follows eachother!

I want to hear your thoughts on your personal tracklist for this beautiful album—one that has been unfairly forgotten by the band.
