| Contents | The mild ones, West Palm Beach, Florida, June 2003 -- We would be friends forever, for better, for worse, for everything in the universe -- No pubes! I told you guys, no pubes! -- That's homo -- The next day my shit turned snow white. I thought that was God's way of telling me, "you can't do this" -- Our music is like a bowel movement -- Dud, your brother's dead -- You can't go around taking your dick out. Some people don't like it -- I see that erection as being my enemy -- We're just like spinal tap, although it isn't our drummers who keep exploding -- It's still about pelvis thrust -- I don't care whether I live or die -- The results are considerably better than they were during my junkie time -- Hopefully we can look back and have a laugh at what knucklehead we were. |
| Abstract | Here is the extreme story of the indestructible LA group, from their early funk days to eventual success as one of America?s top-selling bands. Despite an epic reputation for exhibitionism, drug taking, and drunkenness, through it all the Chili Peppers have continued to produce records that shock, challenge, and intrigue their fans. This book tells the complete Red Hot Chili Peppers story, from their first meeting at a Los Angeles high school to the creation of such career-defining albums as BloodSugarSexMagik, Californication and By The Way. |
