I'm so happy to see this! I'm catching them on the 11th and I was a little worried after watching a show from 2011 where I felt there was no energy. I'm excited to see them, and this is really reassuring to me!

I went into that show with tempered expectations and ended up being pleasantly surprised. I didn't think they'd be as good live as they were.

They were AMAZING. Totally brought it, I don't know if they were just 'On' that night, but I haven't seen a band that 'on' in a long time.
Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

Yeah, I just downloaded the second night as I went to that one (pre-ordered it when i got home that night)...sounds great. not as good as PJ boots, but pretty great. There is barely any mix of the crowd in it. The place was crazy at certain parts of the show and you can barely hear it on the FLAC's. Still worth it though.

I'll have to pick up the boot in the near future. This was the first Chili Peppers show I successfully saw.

Frusciante is a genius with the vocal harmonies on this one. Lotta cool guitar sounds and keys.


Word... John is THE genius! I actually wish he could re-record some of the stuff he made with RHCP and do more stripped down versions with him handling the vocals... :) :)
