  • new generation..he's peace

  • The best part, at the end was cutted...

  • It has. And so has hip-hop, pop, everything is disconnected from music :/.

    Really hope this new album is good

  • If you actually watch the video, you'll see John says rock has become stale. "The band" doesn't.

  • Flea says it right there "For the sake of the music...no the money"

  • Was that Bootsy Collins on stage?

    That would be f*ckin awesome :D

  • I bet Flea meant the statement to hit people lining in queue in Idol, Brit/America's Got Talent instead of honing their own music skills. And I bet he is directing that statement against Simon Cowell.

  • It's not just the music industry that's lacking originality. A lot of the major movies from the past decade are remakes of older movies or TV show adaptations. It's easy, guaranteed money, so the industry just goes along with it. As for music, as long as sex sells, mainstream will continue to suck.

  • fuck you flea iam not in it for the money but i want pepole to here iam good iam good as shit at the bass and i did pick up the instrmint and tought my self and ill be damned if rock is stale it just branchecd out in to differnt geanras i grew up with korn r a t m now its fucking all aouto tone ....... ranting I WANT TO B LISTEN TO

  • @666nickchaos

    If you're not in the music biz for the money, don't swear at Flea! Learn to respect a Rock Legend, man.

    He meant that statement for bands who are putting shame on Rock music.

  • goddamnit i love froosh

  • for the sake of the music not the sake of the money 1:15 lol!

  • No Punk, No Grunge, Maybe Metal, but for Rock, Let it live.

  • I hate instigateing dumb ass, lyeing mother fucking reporters who Instigate shit like this.. When John said the genre was getting stale he ment that there arn't enough rock bands who actully play " REAL ROCK MUSIC'' all of these wanna be bands like fallout boy, temple of the dog have NO FUCKING TALENT AT ALL!

  • John killed that solo, does anyone know where it happened? I have to see the full vid :O

  • ArtisanNews always use the same Give It Away footag!

  • @adds102 Do you have a link for this Give It Away Footage? Or know where it is? BEcause I'd like to c the full footage. Thanks

  • Check out the rocker user GREENDAY3840 please he's awesome and his rock is N-O-T stale

  • How tall is Chad? And what is with Anthony? Does he think he's Mexican or something? the way he rolls his R's and the things he does...

  • playing with bootsie must be so awesome for flea! its like if flea played with me one day jaja

  • props to RHCP!!

  • I agree with them.

    I love every single one so much.

    They're my inspiration, it's thanks to them that for over a year I've been wanting to learn how to play the drums.

  • hes totally right about the thing about the money

  • rock is stale in these days if i have a band i wanna be like the peppers

    i want just play rock i dont need the money just to play for ppl

  • What do you expect......bands are now pushed for their looks as much as music, and R&B, pop,, and the likes of Miley Cyrus Beyonce are considered great. Same thing has happened in country music as well. Just a bunch of no talent models. sad sad sad state of affairs for music.

  • @billsurf101 Music isn't in a sad state, it's just that MTV and the radio lead you to believe so. The good artists are there. However, Beyonce, however lame some of her songs/antics are, is actually a great singer.

  • ok yeah that's bootsy for sure,showing for P. Funk sweet.

  • chilli peppers were right on here...rock is totally stale and just copycat nowadays..all the bands have almost the same exact singer what it sounds like...when you have guys like shinedown, daughtery, and nickleback on top then you know somethings not right..take me back to the 90s when you got so many different and dynamic bands like blind melon, nin, rhcp, nirvana, tool, tribe called quest, smashing pumpkins, and alot more..but thats when rock was strong and fresh...now its a parody of itself

  • Well, rock isn't as publicized as it used to be. Like... Woodstock who? And how many rap and R&B and pop videos do you see on MTV before you see something remotely rock related? Whatever happened to Unplugged? Rock is dead because no one wants to make money off it anymore.

  • bro i get wat ur sayin about it not being as publicized today..but rock isn't "dead" man its simply jus wounded rite now.. Think about it, rock for the most part ruled all from 1955 til about 1999 (obviously the end dates not definate). Rocks jus strugglin rite now because ppl find money to be more important than music, a fact that rnr has been rebelling against even wen it was the top cash crop. It will make a comeback, idk wen but its gonna happen nd it may be different than rock we're used to

  • Hell take me back to the 60's-70's where everything started and were pure before marketing took its soul and killed it

  • hendrix, funkadelic, doors, zeppelin, blue oyster cult...i can't say i disagree with that either

  • Comment removed

  • @animal90sFreak5 it probably is bootsy....he was a big influence on them, especially flea. Of course ask any modern rock band today and they won't even have a clue of who bootsy is. Modern rock is dead and played only by complete posers. (Nickelback)

  • @metallikuh520 LOL foo fighters?RHCP?Pearl Jam?R.E.M.?Alice in Chains?Beck?A bunch more,geez guess you're thinking about what's on the radio.

  • @animal90sFreak5 yeah but you have to take in to consideration that these bands have been playing for a long time and they're simply keeping it alive.

    Once these guys retire, there aren't that many bands left to keep rock from disappearing.

    Like John said, i hope its just a phase and that today's kids are gonna be the new legends of Rock :)

  • Put down the fucking guitar hero guitar, stop bragging about experting through the fire and the flames. Pick up an actual instrument and learn to respect music and the process that goes into real rock compared to computerised anything else.

  • a-fucking-men

  • I saw this while having the 2010 grammies on the background, the nominees sucked this year lol

  • "...for the sake of the music not for the sake of the money"

    Amen flea \m/

  • hahaha some of the hottest women ive seen with their eyes peeled open to the stage full of people not giving a fuck!

    and all music has meaning its just in vogue to try and make something of it, cos theres money to be made in all young bands despite whether their good or not, and before record execs and syndicators get a hold of it it may of sounded alot better.

  • well said, John!

  • ♥

  • best band ever!

  • bootsy!

  • haha thats REAL ROCK N ROLL! RHCP KICK ASS on all the new emo bandss around the Worldd...

  • exactly who really digs the killers?

    to me it's boring as fuck

  • fucking emo....kill emo..love rock alternative..thats the kind of music with true meaning...

  • love r h c p

    in lithuanian

    myliu r h c p ;]

  • myliu rhcp!!

  • Comment removed

  • 1:32 kick ass bass

  • kids thee days are all fat peaces of shit playing world of war craft or playing games wtf go out do something play a instrument people get the fuck up and do something! ive been playing guitar for about 5 years now

  • hey? im 13 and i play music and its my life

  • Ye im 13 and i play too, thats stereotypical of theboner123, but alot of people are nonetheless

  • yeah i took the advice and i've been playin' for about a year now.

  • i love chad.. :p

  • There are good rock bands out there you got to look for them. were stepping into a new generation and music is going to change.

  • or you could just go listen to metal, eat some butter off the stick, and keep your stupid-ass opinion to yourself

  • gosh the genre of rock has gone stale. Most of the bands today are freakin EMO bands, that come up with crappy lyrics, and wear those freakin skinny jeans and can barely play guitar. theres got to be more rock bands.

  • yeah this sucks

    but well... ur lucky, here in mexico the new genre is REGGEATON

    OMG im the only kid in my class who likes or atleast knows RHCP

    all we hear in mexico is "mueve tu cuerpo al son de wisin y yandel" ohh I want to kill myself...

  • Man I cant fucking stand those Mierdeton singers I mean they just talk about having sex with a fucking whore... and the "Rock" we have is shit like Zoe and Panda I mean this fucking sux! and I know there arte real Rock and Metal bands here in mexico but they are not exposed enought, its all Fault of Telerisa and TV azteca

  • if you take notice, every decade we have like this type of culture that we follow like for example hippies, punks and so on, and there are directed to a type of music. So what im trying to say is what do we have this decade hmm?? :/ .. AND PLZ!! dont say emos cause ill kick your face xD

  • nothing it's like the 80's.

    just a terrible decade that will no doubt end by early 2010 so that a new decade can arise.

  • eh, doubt it in a sence. A lot of music has come about due to economic hardship, teenagers bumming around with nothing to do but start a band. As technology progressies theres less insentive to start a band and get good at something that is a long term investment (i.e. playing guitar) and kids are more likely to sit at the computer watching videos of shit, so hey, maybe some intresting music will come out of other regions that are becoming more of a 1st world country.

    Eh, my 2 cents.

  • @Theanarchistatheist interesting perspective on it. thanks! :)

  • excatly what the hell do we have nothing just a bunch of fat kids doing nothing we need a new thing man

  • bootsy freakin collins... sweeeeet

  • come to argentina we have rock bands you have hip hop rap and all that fucking shit

  • most bands that i listen to are for 2000 and down now it seems like that there arent many good bands... and hip hop and pop and w/e really have no talent included expect for singing everything else is just computer bullshit

  • you cant say no talant but it is just not rock thier is not anof feel in the guitar to many shred bands

  • this is why I'm getting a guitar for my 40th birthday, so I can teach my kids how to play...

    STill remember losing a shoe at Auditorium shores in Austin in a mosh pit at a Chili Peppers concert outdoors, and a tour at which little known bands, Pearl Jam and Smashing Pumkins opening. Those were the days... Ho humm...

  • the same thing with metal.

  • fuck guitar hero and rock band! make a real band and make something interesting and new!

  • agreed, times a fucking million.

  • Comment removed

  • lol i've always wanted to be in a rock band since i played a song with some friends in front of my whole school, it was fun!

  • Wtf bootsy? Daaaayyyyuuum.

  • Im always happy to hear when someone plays an instrument, except for a violin. gives me baaad headaches

  • i blame guitar hero

  • me too kids know that now they dont have to learn the real thing they can just play it on a video game

  • I think your completly wrong,thousands if not millions of kids are getting into the hard rock songs found on the GH games.And they would prolly only be HipHopin otherwise.Aalso its actually kinda helpful as a traing tool as far as timing and finger work and such.

  • You're a dipshit.

  • for the fun and love and the music!!!!!!!!!

  • Also, the genre being stale is one of the main reasons I'm trying to become a rock star who plays the electric violin, the harmonica, and the ocarina. Those are three VERY underused instruments.

    In my opinion, too many people play guitar. It's true that it's the most important instrument in the world, but it's not the ONLY instrument in the world. Literally THOUSANDS of instuments exist in this world, why do half of all teenage dreamers play guitar?

  • I know what your saying. I think bands are just too small sometimes and need to experiment with more musicians more often.I find it hard to believe money doesnt go around enough to employ other musians.

  • well i play and love guitar, why??? cuz its what you pick up after listening to an amazing guitar song where you can learn off the songs of those who are famous and put together what others have made into your own, many rock songs are built of the very same chords that started rock!!!! and go for it! play those instruments have fun! its how ever you speak through music not how others speak for u

  • I believe this is very true nowadays

    all i seem to listen to now is all the bands that came out years ago like RHCP, jimi hendrix, metallica, nirvana etc there dosent seem to be many bands like these type of bands anymore, half its screaming and has to have a double bass pedal or its pop punk bands you know?

    I also think its not just in rock music most hip-hop just sounds the same these days unlike in the 80's where they had good beats etc

    But yeah thats my take

    Peace

  • I'm kinda the same with my Heavy Metal, I just stick to classic bands like Maiden, Sabbath Priest Metallica and Megadeth, Pantera and a bit of MElodic Death Metal, but there arent many bands that can capture that feeling nowadays, the only band that made me feel like the others is Evile (new Thrash Metal band) much of modern day metal is just Masturbate on double bass and growling like idiot... everyone wants to make brutal death metal, we need more classic sounding metal!!!

  • whos that black dude at 2:02

  • Bootsy Collins

  • I'm pretty rock won't go stale for long!

    People just need to wise up and open their ears to real music, like what the RHCP create. Rather than what they are force-fed my the media etc.

    Thankfully the internet now gives people the freedom to explore this

    Oh, and especially to discover such talents such as John Martyn (RIP). Life-changing....

  • i agree to that

  • yeah i agree with the rock being stale thing

    seriously modern rock sucks

    my chemical romance, fall out boy, good charlotte... I can't stand them.

    its like they're all the same freaking band

    no one stands out or brings anything new to the table or reinvents anything,

    like the Red Hot Chili Peppers or Nirvana did, for example.

  • MY GOD ITS TRUE!!!!!! if only my whole school realised that... its quite hard 2 form a band when EVERYONE wants to do paramore songs..

  • and boring too I mean that kind of songs have like 3 chords and no solo!

  • I agree.

  • I don't think there's anything wrong with these bands, we don't need them to go away. We just need more talented people who are able to play more instruments, more time-signatures, and utilize more unique effects and chords to get famous too.

  • @KillerQueen247 i agree 100000%

  • @KillerQueen247 The fuck? Nirvana reinvented nothing. Nirvana songs are typical chords progressions (good or bad), they are a great example of straigthfoward rock. If you want to listen to innovative rock bands, go listen Prog Rock. Like, The Mars Volta--who have opened some RHCP concerts, even.

    Also, you may want to learn to write in sentences and paragraphs.

  • hahahah i bet flea must of been absolutley creaming, getting the chance to play with bootsy

  • music in general has gone stale

  • bands today need to get out of the formulated formats for music. thats the only way things will change, bands need to draw influence from different styles to create something new.

    fuck cookie cutter rock.

  • it has and dont worry kids i dont think there sayin the bands you love are shit, just stale if you like it then YEAY if not then BOOOO

  • Yes that is true, but I think he means the (young) bands who only make music for the money, who care more about the money than about the music and who want to make a lot of money as fast as they can.. And it`s kind of like, you`re choosing a study for a job where you can earn a lot of money, but you don`t like it, it`s just for the money, you know ?

  • The best band of the world RHCP <3

  • John Frusciante is my hero!

  • Mine too ! :D

  • rhcp is one of the last real rock bands.

  • true. at least the succesful ones.

  • seriously! a lot of rock is getting kinda stale. where did rock go wrong?!

  • one thing: MTV

  • lol

    for the sake of the music not for the money

    awh amaznin

    the chilli's were playin with bootsy collins towards the end :D amazzinnn

  • Stadium Arcadium is the best album ever,in my opinion.

  • anthony<3

  • I'd like to butt fuck anthony.

  • omg i was thinking the exact same thing xD (to jerktrucker)

  • of course its gone stail, the only hope for rock music is if the chilis come up with another album, otherwise we'll be stuck with bullshit like nickleback and falloutboy, o god

  • i completely agree. Chad was wrong, we dont need more rock bands...

    WE NEED MORE RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS ALBUMS!

    Rhcp forever <3

  • lol

  • Hey, if you're interested, I'm in an alternative-funk style band and will be posting some of our stuff in the near future.

    The genre may be stale as hell, but I'm still willing to take a bite out of it. I'm not giving up on the music I love, and neither should you.

  • what we dont need is another stadium arcadium,

    we need another blood sugar.

  • if its the chili peppers its already great...i dont care what it is lol

  • i totaly agree!

    i hate these new punk emo bands these days

    GOD!

    good challote can kiss my ass!!!

  • very correct

  • BEST BAND ON EATH AND EVERYWHERE ELSE

  • Bootsy Collins is the man

  • they are so damn right of course

  • :) john is a real iitalien.

    Using his hands alot when he's talking.

    i love him!

    i love them all!

    i only dont like the voice from that girl: ,,Anthony kiedis and the boys..." OMG

  • only real people at that award show

  • what categories did they win in?

  • i agree with blacksabbath919 that there will one day be an amazing rock band that is inspired by something other than their peers in modern rock, but they will probably not be very appreciated, or it will be just one band, not a big collection of great ones like throughout the 60's and 70's and the early 90's

  • YES ROCK HAS GONE STALE

  • FROOSHANTAY WTF its pronounced froosheeanty

  • please wise up.

  • dick

  • silly billy

  • lmao

  • I have visions of Fall Out Boy,The Killers,Panic At The Disco,etc. when they this. such bad music. I'm just glad I can retreat to the safe haven of a Hendrix album. Most young kids these days(i am only 23) probably only know jimi as a T-shirt brand. I walked into a "Future Shop/Best Buy", and asked for The Good The Bad and The Ugly, I got blank stares from three teenaged workers, I think that is a microcosim of the ignorance that is being put upon us in our western societies.

  • for the music not the money!

  • red hot are fucking gods

  • One d day, there will be arock band that will put rock back as number 1 and they are coming soon.

  • wow thats like the first time i have heard someone actually pronounce john's name right

  • lol. Yeah its not hard.

  • it's very interesting, but the chick who tells this sounds boring

  • bootsy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

  • Flea's house bruned down

  • which damn crap ass said that was a poor comment? that's the truth! it isn't very funny but it is true.

  • i was so sad when i found out and all his stuff burnt. we should start a donation thing

  • he's a millionaire. he'll survive

  • yeh lol just before that he bought a house for 10 mill lol

  • rap is worth less than a sweaty thievin' petofile. chad is right, lets see some more rock bands, good ones.

  • john is so right

  • as always:D

  • pop music over the top? nah... lol they're so right

  • for the sake of the music not the money- so agree and with John as well-music now is so bad.

  • women rhcp merdaaaaaaaaa

  • there are emily kokal, frankie balzary and nancy smith at 0.27 second

  • I can see Emily Kokal for a few seconds at 0.27

  • whoa buckethead bootsy and the peppers on 1 stage.....is that possible?

  • sounds like my dream come true, part from bootsy, whoever the fuk that is.

  • lol

  • wow.. if bootsy collins was there.. it would be cool if buckethead joined them too..

  • haha Chad is so big! ROCK RULES!!! RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS FOR PRESIDENTS xD

  • yeah red hots with bootsy.

  • awesome. I totally agree with them.
