We saw the Red Hot Chili Peppers live at Soccer City last weekend. It was a dream come true for me, they are one of my all time favourite bands. And they did not disappoint. Considering Flea and Anthony Kiedis are 50 plus (that's 8 years younger than my DAD!), they jump around with the energy of 20 year olds. Moshing and doing hand stands on stage, playing their guitars upside down. What a show.
Here is them in 1983, 1993, 2003 and 2013:
A.K. has an autobiography called Scar Tissue, apparently really good if a bit harrowing in parts due to his habitual drug use and overall rocker lifestyle. You can buy it here or here. Oh and you must watch their most epic music video of all time here.
...and seeing as Flea encouraged us to watch live local music: favourite amazing South African acts Goldfish, 340ml, Prime Circle, Jesse Clegg (NOT Die Antwoord they are weird and scary)
