Here Today... Gone To Hell!

I saw the RHCP tonight in Boston and they were late (show was to go on on at 7:30 and they took the stage around 10:30). Anthony says "sorry we're late, we've been hanging around Axl Rose."? :hihi:

LOL :hihi:

How was the show?

haha awesome, i saw the chili peppers a few days ago,,, great show

Great show. I know Axl is a RHCP fan. GN'R opened for them in the late 80s.

Hehehe cool. ;D
RRCHP are kick ass.

  :rofl:

That is TOO funny, love the Chili Peppers! ;D

how full was the fleet center?

not true

thats what i was thinking....




and the RHCP put on a great show, def. worth seeing

I saw them in Vancouver this year! : ok:

I may be wrong but I thought they did play with the RHCP at UCLA in the late eighties. Mike

The Peps hung out with GNR at some show during the European tour this Summer. Peps were set to play that same venue the day after or before I believe... and they were seen socializing with GNR.

Axl has numerous times said how he looooves their music.

Nice to see Axl picking up with among others, the Peps and Lars Ulrich (when they were in Copenhagen for the Roskilde show); as they say.. time heals many things.

 :peace:

Thats true...Axl was wearing a RHCP t-shirt in the making of  Dont Cry video...
Jbat

RHCP are one hell of a live band. Glad that Axl and them get along  : ok:

I love that coment, thats damn cool, I think some times people need to see things for themself, or jsut STFU, cause, really doesnt  matter what you or I or anyone says, we all live life. BUT yeah that cracks me up good stuff!

Before one month i made post there where flea talking about eharad and heavy and he said:

"i don't like heavy,except gunsnroses,these guys really know what is rock and roll"

Yep, that's true, peps were at the backstage for the gnr concert.
Prague, Czech Republic, Sazka Arena
13.6.2006 - GNR
14.6.2006 - RHCP
Two days of uncontrolled drinking, singing and complete madness. :)

Called TD Banknorth Garden now. It was a full house, in fact they added a second show (which was two weeks ago) when tonight's (last nights now) show sold out.

And I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that GN'R opened up for RHCP. In LA maybe?

RHCP didn't become popular until the early 1990s. GN'R hit it big in the summer of '88, so more than likely RHCP were opening for GN'R man.

On one of those VH1 specials, Keidis talks about how jealous he used to be of GN'R when they hit it big. He says something to the effect of, "We've been around just as long or longer, how come we're not hitting it big?" He said it jokingly of course, but those comments indicate that RHCP wasn't (nor did they ever become) a bigger/more popular band than GN'R.

I saw the chilis at earls court in july and was pretty disappointed. No Under The Bridge and they just seemed to jam and mess about for ages(maybe a bit hypocritical with GN'Rs solos). Saw GN'R the friday after in Glasgow and it was miles better.
But the chilis are a good band no question, just live I feel they're a bit over-rated.

I must be one of the only people in the world that doesn't care for the RHCP any more. Loved em in the old days, now they bore me to death

well there are many teen people,but in late 80-es and early 90-es in the world of music gnr was the biggest band
RHCP,nirvana,pearl jam was opular in 90-es but they had never been like gnr in his fuckin six years
rhcp,nirvana ,pearl jam have never had tour like uyi
people who istened gnr since 80-es or 90-es know w"about i'm talking"
i remembered in europe 1992 was gunsnroses mania

So no posibility that gnr opened for rhcp,on www.pollstar.comyou can read that gnr 1988 had a tour with aerosmith,and there they said there was a two act tour
1988 gnr opened a couple shows in usa for ironmaiden but 70% of crowd were gnr fans,so axl decided to stop a tour

people you can not imagine what was gnr in these days,how big they were

Axl should teach Kiedis a thing or two about singing too.

I think Under The Bridge is overrated.

Maybe, but its still there biggest song (catapulted them big-time in the early nineties). It's like GNR not playing SCOM really. Not a big fan of the chilis but would expect them to play the big numbers which they didnt.

Say what you will about the RHCP, at least their new album is a DOUBLE disk. If we get half that from Axl I'll be happy.

Dani California is a good song. The video is pretty funny too.

yeah I like that new album.  :D

Now that is funny

I saw em at continental, they were the 2nd best band ive ever seen. GNR being the best. Thats a funny comment that mr keidis made.

i agree i'm glad they played soul to squeeze instead of under the bridge when i saw them at earls court.

and

10.31.86 - Ackerman Hall, UCLA, Los Angeles, CA
opening for: Red Hot Chili Peppers, Dickies
audio/video recording?: no
notes: The annual Halloween show

flyer: http://www.gnrontour.com/sets1986/19861031flyer.jpg

me too

I saw them both nights at Continental Arena. The second night everyone was handed a little advertisement of the both the GN'R shows in NJ/NY. Pretty good advertisement. Every single person got one, causing them to know that GN'R is playing shows.

i used to have an old pic of Axl hanging with Kieids and Flea around 1989....Axl is a hufe Faith No More fan so its no surprise he loves RHCP.....I have many many many RHCP audio bootlegs and on several from late 1989 the Peppers play My Michelle and Paradise City and Welcome to the jungle bits and pieces and Kiedis tries to sing liek Axl and lets just say they werent doing it in a nice way...More of a mocking way.......also on a peppers bootleg from 1989 Kiedis says the song they are about to play next is th elongest song ever written except for axl rose's november rain..how they knew abotu november rain in 1989 is intriguing.....

I knew about November Rain, Dont Cry, Back off bitch from bootleg demos back in 88-89.  Anthony probably got his hands on one of those tapes.  :peace:

I was at the show last night.  Great, great show.  I always knew that John Frusciante was good but until last night I wasn't aware of how great he is.

I really dont like RHCP.
Nothing of theirs apeals to me.
their music is borring, their videos are crap, they look and act like gay clowns.
Also their songs all sound the same...

The only contribution RHCP ever gave me was Flea as "Needles" in Back to the Future.

the guy says RHCP is boring...HAHAHA...one of the most influential bands to ever come out of the 1980s....as great as GNR is lets be honest what RHCP were doing in the 80s was even more original...

Ha, I didn't know that, but I think I remember who he was.

Anyone that says the RHCP's songs sound alike obviously know absolutely nothing about this band.

If u listen to their 80's recordings u would think it was an entirely different band.

RHCP was much more unique than GNR was.  They fused conventional rock, metal, and funk into one tight package of sound, a very unlikely combinationk.  Plus, they've been playing music together as a band for 23 years(with some lineup switches due to death, etc).

also in 1989 The Peppers released Mother's Milk, their first album with Johnny Frusciante.

After the song "Punk Rock Classic" John plays the opening SCOM riff.  He also thanks GNR in the liner notes of the album.

Hey thanks mate! I thought I was right when I posted this on the first page of this thread, but so many people who always think they know better said that no way would this have happened, so I kept quiet until I could find out but you did it for me mate! Cheers!! Mike P.S Someone posted in here that the chilis were not big until the nineties! Umm, you need to know your music a little better my friend! Maybe they got fucking huge in the nineties but they were a massive band in the late eighties as well!! Mike

the chilis toured with faith no more in 1987..the best tour ever...i saw them at the irving plaza in 1987 and i was 8 fuckin years old...........like i said though on the mothers milk tour the peppers would play gnr songs as a joke and mock them cuz anthony said axl was ragging on them for playing the SCOM riff in punk rock classic.........and for the dude who said the peppers sound different now than they ddi in the 1980s..have u listened to the new songs 'charlie', 'hump de bump' or storm in a teacup....those songs are straight out of their 80s funk sound

Chilis and GN'R are my two favourite bands and the only two bands I've seen at gigs!  :love:

putting a glass dildo up the ass, and singing is also original, but that doesnt make it good music.

RHCP is good music, and more original and unique than GNR was.

always been a RHCP fan - since "blood sugar" especially - but like the newer stuff too.  I met Chad (drummer) last year and we chatted about GnR - he was v excited about chinese democracy and new songs.

you beat me to it haha

Saw that you posted this same thing twice. Can't imagine why. There's not any amount of truth to it. You really should look into the Chili's influences. Seeing as the Peps sound exactly like their influences, that would make them un-original.

Don't get me wrong. They're a great band. They've done their fair share for rock. But to say they were/are more unique and original then GNR is just incorrect.

Not something you could ever accuse GnR of....  ::)

Sounding exactly like their influences? Nope.
