Thinking about picking up tickets for the Chicago show on 06/30. I'll already be there for the Tom Petty show on 06/29 and we're staying through the whole weekend anyway.
Saw them in January in Tulsa but the gf didn't get to go to that one.
Not trying to beat the Sick Love drum too loudly (or anymore for that matter), but has anyone seen the video accompaniment to the song at their show? It was a different video than the images I conjured before seeing it live.
I looked at lyric interpretation sites to try and figure out what I missed by myself. It appears the song is a little darker than what I thought.

Good discipline!
The last few shows I went to... I sneaked peeks at setlist.fm and ruined any element of surprise that might have been coming to me. I never did for the Peppers and loved it more.

Right, staying away from setlist too, I guess PJ spoils us!!!!
Anyone have an extra ticket (or 2) to the Cincinnati show? There are still ones available on ticketmaster but I'd prefer a better seat if someone is looking to offload. Just found out I will be in town.
^And.... Dreams of a Samurai has really grown on me...it's so trippy. I'll bet it's really wild live.
Agreed on Dreams. Almost like some Hendrix undertones on that guitar work in the background. Subtle, but enough to notice it's catchy sound.
^Yess... and K. Hoff has the potential to get even more experimental and just explode on this one live. And the lyrics..."taking acid in a graveyard...I've lost myself out on the range. I don't remember much so don't ask me I've gone insane". Some of the best lyrics on the album. Vibe of the song is dark and trippy but drifts in and out of this euphoric state. I really hope they play this one when they come here in April.

I haven't seen the video accompaniment to the song at their show yet, Thirty, but I just watched the animated video. Definitely dark. Rolling Stone refers to it as their "Morbid 'Sick Love' video filled cemetary-dwelling clowns and horny spiders".
Any chance stubhub (or like sites) cuts the prices down at the last minute before the show? Also considering waiting a little after they start and try to track one down for cheap from a scalper. Im not dying to see them, so I will pass if necessary, but if the price is right I would love to see the show in Columbia.

There are face value tickets still available direct from Ticketmaster for that show.

^And the Fru/Flea jam factor, combined with the J. Fru solo on 'Especially in Michigan' is 'especially kickass'. Ditto that for the very end of Sir Psycho Sexy.
I've always loved RHCP and kept up with them, but a couple of years ago found a ton of b-sides, demos, and shows. They're right behind PJ for me now. The Unmastered Californication and Tearto Demos from 9/5/98 are incredible. I also found a ton of shows dating back to 1986. The Stadium Arcadium tour was insanely good. Lots of improvised and extended jams with variations on the setlist nightly.
The latest album is pretty good. I'm glad Josh Klinghoffer came in and sparked some creativity in the band. We're going to see them next week and I'm pretty excited. Hoping to hear Dreams Of A Samurai and Goodbye Angels from the new album.
After their unreal show, I try and put on other music... but after short periods of satisfaction... I go back to the Peppers. In particular, I play the Vancouver bootleg or Stadium Arcadium.
Dani California might be the perfect rock song for me.
I'm looking forward to some reviews for the upcoming shows.
Tickets purchased for Columbia. I don't want to look at setlists so can anyone tell me if they play much off of One Hot Minute? It's my favorite album by them, one or two songs off of it would make me pretty happy.

The only songs they've played from OHM in recent years is Pea and Aeroplane. I'm going to see them tomorrow. Really hoping for "Dreams Of A Samurai"!!

For me that is the crown jewel of the new album.
Fantastic new album. What a piece of work this band pumped out in their supposed twighlight years.

Got some gym motivation.
You have to love this band.

Make sure you leave a bit of a review for us.

This is a link for a lot of the b-sides/demos throughout their career.
F**k. Can't stop listening to these guys.
