Northern Wish Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 While I have never been the biggest RHCP fan, I have seen them 3 times over a wide range of years (92, 97, 03) and each show was as impressive as the one before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubberdinghy Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Think this will be ridiculously priced? Too bad it wasn't at Bluesfest... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmic ChrisC Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Yeah I was hoping they'd do Bluesfest this year. That would have been great!This should not be too overpriced...not like all the bigs acts who have been to SP lately. I figure it might be GA on the floor, I hope.

Jaimoe Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Too bad John Frusciante left the band before the recording of their latest album. He's a fucking brilliant guitarist. I hear he handpicked his replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ollie Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Too bad John Frusciante left the band before the recording of their latest album. He's a fucking brilliant guitarist.How much did he really add to Stadium Arcadium though? I feel like the RHCP are at the point in their career where they just release the same-ish album every 3 or 4 years as an excuse to go on tour. They haven't really recorded anything all that relevant since Blood Sugar Sex Magik, which I always found overrated in the first place.I guess what I'm saying is that for a band of supposed great musicians they don't show it that much. I would love for them to get jammier and creative with the setlists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he was given any chance to shine, he usually delivered. John has perfect taste even when the songs aren't up to snuff. I'd like RHCP to be a hard funk trio sans Anthony.

AD Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Kiedis is the most tone-deaf and lyrically stupid singer of a huge band. At least Bono can hit the notes. Lately the RHCP have sounded more like 90s video game soundtrack music than actual songwriters and players. So over-rated. (Used to be a fan up until One Hot Minute. Some good tracks on that must overall a bad album and the beginning of my change in opinion).Frusciante is badass.And Sleigh Bells are awful.

ollie Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Did anyone else go to the Ottawa or Toronto shows? I didn't think last night was anything spectacular, a serviceable show for sure but that's about it. The setlist was pretty uninspired and Kiedis looked to be mailing it in.Sleigh Bells were incredible. I am biased though as they are one of my favourite bands at the moment. Friends we were with were less impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AD Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Check out the review in the Sun for a laugh. Ever want to read Denis Armstrong massively overhype a band and then compare a jam to tantric sex? Then this review is for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AD Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 There would be long boring instrumentals interrupted by absolutely some of the funkiest, jump-out-of-your-skin best live rock four guys have ever made....jazzy jam between Flea and Klinghoffer that resembled tantric sex.
