  • God you guys are pussies, just practice your damn instrument lol it's not like it's impossible

  • @midnightsandwich69 Lol? I've been practicing an hour a day and I'm nowhere even close to playing it this cleanly.

  • "Its pretty simple" he says. Hah

  • Jeesus. How loud can you get?

  • AMERICANNNNN GHOST DANCE !

  • Is he playing in his pjs? Thats so typical Flea, love the man!

  • flea te amo. casate conmigo.

  • we believe wezieve belive

  • flea is my jesus

  • last riff he played is American Ghost Dance *__* and its' similiar to HdB... wow never noticed it :O

  • @Thegiacobass ummm the sterling classic didn't come out till 2010, this was made in 2006 (trust me I remember seeing this that year), its just a regular sterling. If there is foamy things on it (I don't see them on it) it just might be an old one

  • "it's very simple.." baramannamaratatat SHIIIIIT

  • This is sooo fuckin great!

  • <3

  • american ghost dance!!!

  • "American ghost dance" - Freaky Styley

  • great to see him on a stingray

  • lol at @1:18 , ashiee gada di da du

  • he's with a fucking Musicman Stingray !! didn't see him with that bass on stage since OHM era

  • @everlyredhot And you still havent, thats a sterling my friend

  • @IPlayTheBass97 Is it a Sterling Ray 34?

  • @elticodanielito a Sterling classic, I know it because of the bridge with the foam thingy 

  • @Thegiacobass nice one mate, cheers :)

  • @IPlayTheBass97 StingRay my friend

  • @DavidMcRuLeZ Sterling. Look at the knobs man.

  • cazz ma t costava molto attacarlo all'ampli,,,'ca troia

  • It`s funny how the interviewer is amazed of a simple pentatonic scale :D

  • i wonder how are flea's fingers??

  • It's called Hump De Bump

  • he keeps saying " it's very simple you know.. " :D

  • Is Flea the best or what! For all you beginners out there check my video's where we first play hump the bump with octaves for getting the feeling right! It really helps improving your rhythm and technique!

  • SO FUCKING SIMPLE

  • flea's finger is so veiny

  • @igorotak26phil

    He's in his late 40's, it comes with age.

  • its quit simple i think... if you practice 30 years every day three hours or so...^^

  • Flea seems like he'd actually be a nice guy to hang out with.

  • WTF!!! He remember freakey stiley!!!!!!

  • fucking shit i think we believe intro is top 3 of flea of all time

    together with around the world and another song..cant decide now

  • WTF ?! weird ass note at 1:51!!!!!!!!!!!! how the fuck is that note ringing???? he didnt pull off or hit the string!!!!!

  • @4stringFanatico Video gets a little out of sync with the sound near the end.

  • he's like what? 46 years old played since he was the age of 16, it's not entirely impossible ;) I started at the age of 16, turning 18 in august, somehow I wish I'll reach a point where I can improvise like him. love the chillies, looking forward to a new album!

  • @MooseHunter911 well i knw now that the video lags at the ened xD but yeah hes a monster man, and improvising haha thats only a fourth of whats makes this guy huge. ive been playin for 2 years know and improvising seems to be all i can do(thats a bad thing) its like i have a musical disorder. this guy can sit down and make MUSIC. while all i can do so far is sound cool, this guy IS cool. his composition skills, talent, energy, and love for his job are what make him so huge. so far i got 1 down

  • @4stringFanatico musical disorder? theres no such thing my firend! practice makes perfect and beeing cool has nothing with your musical talent to do, it's about beeing yourself and doing what you like. and what do you mean "so far i got 1 down"?

  • @MooseHunter911 xD hahah its true man! i cant sit down and try to make a riff. i just have trouble with it, its hard for me, i ended up doodling. or worse,make sumthn, and then forgetting it. but watev, and i didnt mean cool as in looks, but in havin all four. Talent, Energy(presence, mojo, watever u wana call it), Comp. Skills, and Passion. i seem to just have the passion and some talent down. im confident in my skill and crowds dont scare me so il show off and crap shamelessly haha

  • @MooseHunter911 i feel no shame in having the spot light. u wana give a solo? cool, just dont be pissed if its better than yours haha(not YOU personaly, thats just a scenario), and i love performing live. its the greatest feeling in the world. the day that i start performing only for money is the day i stop playing bass. of course i wont say no if im getting paid, but i dont do it for money. but i kinda look boring up there haha, and like i said, i cant make shit, i just doodle realy well.

  • @MooseHunter911 so technicaly, im only half satisfied with my musical ability, but like u said practice makes perfect and that the only remedy for me right now. Flea and many other musicians have all four. they dont neccesaraly have to be famous, but to have those four traits are sumthn that i strive for.

  • @4stringFanatico we all want those four traits but it doesnt hapen over night, just keep doodeling and having fun, I can't realy make bass lines of my own, sometimes I just end up with a fun one, after playing a whole day or so, guess that'll evolve the more you play,

  • I really thought it was harder, but i got it in no time...

  • 2 notes, an universe expanding,, what a good musician,, bravo from chile!!!

  • Flea and John are the best people at their instruments in modern rock.

  • its not hump the bump , but hump DE bump !

  • you know..its very simple you know...

    WTFGHDFSDSDGSDG!!!!! MY FINGERS ARE BLEEDING CUZ I WAS TRYING TO PLAY THAT

    LOL

    EVERYTHING IS SIMPLE FOR FLEA!!

    HE ROCKS :))

  • ohh the 1 filming is the luckiest man in the worls , i wish i was him , so much envy

  • Yeh without Frusciante they're just Red Chili Peppers

  • well, that is fast:o

  • I've always wanted to learn Hump de Bump on bass.

    When flea came into the chorus at 0:40

    I'm like: Nah, I can't.

  • @Maraaken

    it's actually not THAT fast, you just have to practice it VERY SLOWLY, and then progress further to the original speed of the song :)

  • @Maraaken not a technically hard one, just requires memory and practise it. Has no hammer ons or whatever bassist call them, just note by note, i encourage you to try your best

  • @Maraaken lolol its easy... he didnt even play it correct tempo he went faster xD

  • jajaja renuevate flea..........

  • que se renueve de qué?

  • I will have my Musicman in less than a month, caint wait.

  • @porkindorthy DID THOU GET IT?

  • Ya, I got it, and I love it. I have some vids on here of me playing it.

  • Does anybody else think it might be ever so slightly better if he was actually using an amp? lol

  • he's so smooth

  • thumbs up if Im not the only mother fucker who watches every damn video with flea on u tube.

  • i think im the same =]

  • hahha i thoug i was the only one ..

  • @j3rdog

    I'm on my second lap

  • strong fingers.

  • when he finish playing american it stills sounds amazing

  • the camera mans kida tarded

  • why are his hands like that all that bass playing?

  • haha i totally love these guys! they make me so happy. i'm just really, really, overly, anxious about their new 10th studio album next year. and honestly, it would be fucking awesome if their new album has the good ol' pepper funk sound. fun times.
