    I am very excited for the new album now. As for all the critics on the video, if you listen to the song he is saying "California rest in peace"... All of the scenes in the video were of people or fads that have long since died out... But look who is still around.. RHCP!~

    HELL YEAH

    I heard that California is actually "Dani's" last name. A Trilogy of sorts including Californication/By The Way/ Dani California

    Watched the video loads and still not figured out who all the bands are.

    Is the blonde hairspray band poison?

    Who is it when Anthony is wearing the purple top-hat & the big white coat. Who's Flea when he has the 'fro and star sunglasses?

    i dont think they were dissing specific bands..cept for Misfits...but instead parodying the genres.

    in the grunge one..Flea looks alittle like Eddie and Mike Inez haha

    Anthony has stated that its a trilogy of those three songs.

    Seen the video now, funny shit, I'm liking this song not as much as Quixoticelixer, Runaway or Bob but it's good.

    Not sure exactly who but very mid 70's glam rock, especially with Flea dressed as Bowie.

    yeh my bad..i used the wrong word..meant to use parody instead of diss

    anyways the tophat bit has something to do with 70's glam but no idea who exactly.

    The misfits one is the best, heactually looks like Danzig.

    Anyway, I just heard those other live ones off SA and now I can't wait until I go see em in July.
    One time I was trying to print a picture of me so I could give it to a friend to cheer him up after he was diagnosed with cancer, but the printer jammed, and my friend died.

    isn't this a double album? im very skeptical of double albums, lots of fillers. But I think i read somewhere that they wanted to release two records, but decided to make it a double album, so it may not contain fillers, who knows. The video/song was ok, not their best, but good nonetheless.

    original plan was for a 3 disc album if i'm not wrong.
    so far the reviews coming in are pretty good..like the review from The Sun.

    Yep, you're right original plan was to make 3 discs and bring out every year 1 album. It was planned as a triple album!

    My guess is Bootsy Collins from P-Funk
