On May 9, 2006, Red Hot Chili Peppers released the amazing 28-track double album “Stadium Arcadium”. The album features some of the Peppers biggest hits and is infamous for being the last album featuring John Frusciante on guitar. The music on the album is timeless and memorable but the album cover itself, featuring yellow “Superman” lettering and a blue background is anything but.
I’ve seen Mickey Mouse play just about every instrument. Piano, Flute, Drums, Bass, & Guitar. It;s not wonder that John Lennon, Brian WIlson, Joe Walsh, John Frusciante, Anthony Kiedis, Dave Grohl, Michael Jackson, Psy all have rocked a Mickey Mouse Shirt.
Seeing a grown man dressing up like you, trying to look like you and getting the same tattoos as you has got to be creepy…Check out Anthony Kiedis and Liam Gallagher with their look-a-likes…
In 1991, the Red Hot Chili Peppers were about to drop their fifth and most successful album to date “Blood Sugar Sex Magik” but more importantly Anthony Kiedis took on a cameo roll in the cult classic movie “Point Break”.
Here’s a photo of Flea sporting his Los Angeles Lakers purple hair running his first Los Angeles Marathon on March 20, 2011. Flea finished the rain soaked 26.2 mile race in 03:52:00 (three hours and fifty three minutes).
We previously did a story on Rock Stars Wearing The Union Jack Flag. So on this July 4th, The United States of America’s Independence Day from those same Union Jack Wearing Brits, we bring to you Rock Stars and the American Flag.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers released the album “Freaky Styley” in 1985. The back cover included some tongue-in-cheek aliases for the band members, Hillel Slovak as “Homesqueeze”, Anthony Kiedis as “Homes”, Cliff Martinez as “Homey” and Flea as “Homeboy”.
Maybe I am looking into these 2007 fan photos of Anthony Kiedis at a Los Angeles Lakers game with his baby momma Heather Christie a bit too much but I’m pretty sure it must have been difficult for Christie to deal with.
Anthony Kiedis was born in Michigan and Flea was born in Australia but as young men they both moved to the west coast and now represent California and Los Angeles to the fullest. I decided to compile a list of songs by the Red Hot Chili Peppers that mention “The Great State” of California…
RHCP also paid homage to The Who in this photo of them wearing football helmets that was included in the booklet for “Stadium Arcadium”. The album cover for The Who’s 1974 out-takes album “Odds And Sods” showed the band members wearing football helmets as well.
