Peppers better than Ever
The Chili Peppers show in Atlanta Braves stadium lived up to the hype.Stadium shows can be dodgy affairs,spotty sound,weather,stage placement,but none of the above for Wednesdays show at Truist park,the heat had dissapated following the Strokes ,who did not dissapoint.From the opening jam the crowd were standing on the field,I personally was watching John Frusciante for just the 2nd time since 1991,his playing was above and beyond my expectations,Keidis vocally did the studio versions justice,and seems to be working out a bit more lately,all the women around me had their phones on him Alot,Some reviews of this tour slag the band for new songs,well it's a tour for a new album,duh.Robert Johnson's Red hot was a hilarious and vocally difficult song to pull off,Flea was in fine form,and for our sake wore underwear,Rain started to fall during the last song and while the Peppers bade farewell to Atlanta,I think they appreciated the crowd and will come back again. ...

He. Californicated Boston. Otherwise they were more than great even though they left all wanting for Under the Bridge. ... Read more
