John Frusciante and Milla Jovovich were an item for seven months in the year 2000. Jovovich claimed to have fallen in love with Frusciante when she first heard his solo album Niandra Lades and Usually Just a T-Shirt. In 2000 Jovovich said, “It was, like, six years ago, and literally the day I heard his voice for the first time, I was like, “Oh my God!”.
Maybe I am looking into these 2007 fan photos of Anthony Keidis 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.
Is this the best concert line-up ever??? Red Hot Chili Peppers “Blood Sugar Sex Magik Tour” with Nirvana and Pearl Jam as support bands. The Smashing Pumpkins were on the first leg of the tour from October 16, 1991 thru December 14, 1991 with Pearl Jam instead of Nirvana.
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…
In December of 2006, Disneyland announced that two Red Hot Chili Peppers songs were chosen as the soundtracks to be featured for “Rockin’ Both Parks” (Disneyland & California Adventure). Space Mountain used an edited/remixed version of “Higher Ground” while California Screamin’ used an edited/remixed version of “All Around the World”.
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.
Please listen to this youtube clip of John Frusciante’s guitar tracks in the Red Hot Chili Peppers song “Dani California”. It is a great reminder of his greatness and it also includes his background vocals…
Flea performed “Smells Like Teen Spirit” live with Nirvana on January 23, 1993 at the Hollywood Rock Festival in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The chance performance took place because the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Nirvana were on the same bill for the Hollywood Rock Festival. Instead of playing the bass, Flea played the Trumpet.
“I hate when people compare John Frusciante to Jesus. I mean, he’s great and all, but he’s no John Frusciante.” The same people that say Red Hot Chili Peppers Drummer Chad Smith looks like WIll Ferrell also think that John Frusciante looks like and might even be Jesus Christ.
Josh Klinghoffer sometimes plays this 1965 Sunburst Fender Telecaster that was given to him by his friend John Frusciante whom he replaced in the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Here is a photo of John’s playing one of his Telecaster’s during a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert that shows his distinctive tape/grip job .
