Mikko Lindstrom:
A lot of bands performances become somewhat mechanical as the years roll by... And the Chilis have been at it for about 23 years now so it's to be expected sadly.

Green Day have done it, HIM have done it... God knows we can't expect bands who are performing day in and day out for years to keep coming back more energetic than ever. And I mean, the Chilis are all in their 40s now so... Yeah.


Very true, sadly.

OK Whoever said that they're "way below expectations" live must be deaf, blind and totally idiotic.

I saw them last night and they were just bloody brilliant. Nearly every song was a classic and their on-stage chemistry was just so fantastic. They could let the songs go off into insanely brilliant jams and then pull it all back into the song again.

Just a few of the highlights of the night:
Readymade - my favourite Chili's song
Don't Forget Me - sheer brilliance
By The Way, Give It Away - jump around craziness and just plain class
Under The Bridge - to hear this song live is just chilling.

I'm sad its over but I'm going to be able to say I've seen a truly great act up close and in the flesh. Hopefully I'll see them again one day.

Its just chilling to hear it live. It really is something special.

I was lucky to hear it, though. Apparently it wasn't on their setlist and they were due to encore with Soul to Squeeze and then Give It Away, but John messed up and started the intro to Under The Bridge. Anthony started laughing and said "well you might as well carry on".

And so they played it. Oh yes Cool

I can't wait to see them in concert!!
I have tickets for their Montréal show in September. But it's still soooo far!!

I had seen a bit of them on SNL... And it wasn't fabulous, I thought. (To 'answer' to what 409 Coffeemaker said.) It looked as if they weren't ready for it or something. ...But I also saw bits of Slane Caslte's dvd and OhMaGa it'll just be awesome.

I saw them play live at hyde park two years ago, and got into the golden circle right at the front of the the stage

saw them again on tuesday and somehow managed to get back into the golden circle.
Performance wise earls court was amazing, atmosphere wise it was hyde park

but both amazing concerts.

RHCP are the best! Best bass-player, best guitar-player and best drummer! And Anthony has a very individual voice so the guys fit perfectly together... Yeah, I saw them live in June in Berlin and it was awesome... I love the guys! Cool

Whenever theres a topic saying "dream band" I always say that Flea, Frusciante, Smith and Kiedis would be in there. Hence the Red Hot Chili Peppers would be, and are, my dream band.
