Red Hot Chili Peppers - Phenomenon documentary part 1

[FunsPeople]

Flea and John were meant for each other.

[kdunlap14]

frusciante is rhcp

[SH3B1Ns]

shut the fuck up gothic bitch and british dude. thats why you muthafuckers are probably in this fucking video without a fucking clue. Good music=not you.

[Thatswhopunk]

@SH3B1Ns you sir/ma'am are a bitch.

[Nigelxman]

These journalists are complete idiots.

[LulluNatic]

Bulgarian albino midgets? Well, sure LOL

[tyleryesta1]

Flee looks like Chet Baker when he plays the trumpet

[KidFaw]

fuck this does suck, these people arn't friends with the chillis

[ysius]

Second song isnt anthony singing, frusciante not playing either..

[beenanaxthexmoose]

comic sans should never be used in a fucking documentary

[ToxicAntony]

I feel awful for buying this...

[tonkanamagarcu]

i'm a hard core red hot chili peppers fan,and have been for the last 19 years and just love everything about them,but this documentary really really sucks,i mean really

[smallkt121]

they make a documentary about the chili peppers......yet they use a cover of scar tissue at the beginning?okaaaaay.....

[serkiorivan]

is freak

[mattfish85]

check out the VPRO documentary on Red Hot Chili Peppers it's a 1000 times better

[rsohlich1]

This doc does suck....a lot of wrong info...they were all destined right from the start? Maybe, but if you have done ur research you would know how wrong some of this is....not horrible though....but the VPRO are way way better, even if they are in dutch.

[EpicPeopleWhoFAIL]

Jack Irons wasnt friends with the others in high school.....isnt he the guy with the astrologer or something? and, Flea and Anthony were ALWAYS in the band, they didnt just come in...they also kind of stole Hillel from his other band so he wasnt with it from the start.

[ClassyStarship]

@EpicPeopleWhoFAIL

No, Jack Sherman, their second guitarist, was the one with the Astrologer. Jack Irons was around during the high school era, as the drummer for Flea and Hillel's old band, Anthym.

[jamezj66]

i hate the red hot chili peppers :D .. NOT

[TheFunkiestFunk]

@jamezj66 HAA Borat!! Awsooome!! xDD

[dboystretch]

@jamezj66 dont even joke about that

[jensbond93]

In Scar Tissue, if Flea asked Dave to come over and jam some, Dave whould be like:

"Come over to play? do we have to make a record or something?"

He didint want to play for fun.

[cheefjoseph]

Dave Navarro's guitar shit on Give it away.He isn't a RHCP man!

[atwagrl]

This is terrible.. Anthony keidis book contradicts most of this. It does have some cool footage.

[MrRianisawesome101]

i was rhcp sadly dave navarro ruined it

[geletmote]

at the beggining i dont even think thats rhcp playing scar tissue, any thoughts any1

[062829648]

@geletmote It says at 1:00 that its performed by "Chillied Out", look for these things man! :P

[TokinBloke]

@geletmote u mean give it away? and it is them

[GussyG5]

yeah it said it was someone else downt hte bottom

[WalaXOarrows]

it says performed by some one else at the bottum

[DrAtmo]

yeah u r right, it doesn sound like the original RHCP

[geletmote]

yeh its not have a look, i got pelted later on for it specially by "062829648"

[TheNaomiengland]

John Was really Sexy before the herion

[BrDy911]

hes really sexy after the herion lol

[dogfrus]

siiiiiiiiiick

[Creeveyable]

hey...i think the reason why jack irons quit

is because slovak was haunting him...

[pascaliej]

hahahaa

[aGothicStory]

yay they have a documentary!

[TheSpiritofVideo]

bulgarian albino midgets...hahahahahahaha

[rerarbob1]

i just started thinking about this, but i wonder if jack irons was pissed after he left since they got REALLY big after he left?

[Drobko]

he got big, too....with pearl jam:D

[chjohnst]

@rerarbob1 perhaps, but he did go on to play with pearl jam..

[BassistNumber2587]

6:10 what the fuck?!?!?! Aantonee Kayeedis??

hahaha :P

[fratiko]

yea hahaha wtf x) Aantoneee kaydeedis!!! xDDD

[luciferslefthandlady]

to be fair, Anthony is usually pronounced with a hard 't' in the UK. however i have no excuses for his kay-ee-dis thing, or the miTchigan thing. muppet.

[BassistNumber2587]

yeah, i live in the uk and i hear that sometimes :D

[sirchocotaco]

true...his AK's grandfathers name was anTony and thats where he got his name

[ryanthegreat50]

why the FUCK do they INSIST on playing scar tissue while talking about their early days? Hmmm? anyone?  am i the only one to find this to be way out of place?

[AndrewTPerrin]

just because it is one of if not their greatest song

[paulio2293]

i do, and it doesn't even sound like them playing it which is strange, guitar sounds very different

[SkateTS808]

He smoked his first joint at age of 13 get your facts right...read scar tissue

[murp21]

im pretty sure it was 12.

[Airick2K6]

it was 11

[BillyCorganlikespie]

it was 12

[CiscoNast]

wtf's up with the fake version of the song. what a shitty documentary

[jensbond93]

what song?

[vizcacha5]

wtf are ypu talking about?

[vizcacha5]

nvm it is a shitty version

[Mikster35]

hillel is awesome

but frusciante made the band what it is

[ClassyStarship]

@Mikster35

No, Hillel's death made the band what it is. John doesn't have full control over what the band plays. Hillel's death mellowed Anthony's drug use, therefore changing their momentum completely.

[jenskeroro]

@Mikster35 Nobody "made" the band. If anyone that has ever been in the band hadn't been tjere tjen the band would be completely different.

[elskerstine]

Chad is best

[ez0rz]

maybe it wasn't this one xD

[freebrainstorms]

when was this made? any idea?

[ez0rz]

it was done 2008

[jhat25]

then how was it uploaded in 2007?

[elskerstine]

they have been fast

[ez0rz]

as i said in a later comment "maybe it wasn't this one" :D

[ClassyStarship]

That Natasha Scharf chick is pretty retarded passing out negatory info like that. not wrong, but more misleading. Jack, Hillel and Flea never created RHCP, but were in a band called "Anthym" together.

[huyiy]

jack and hillel first? i thought it was always anthony and flea first who made the band.. why did she mention anthony wasnt really in the band..

[metalpunk22]

Cuz Anthony didn't join till later on. Flea and Hillel started the band. Then they invited Anthony to come up on stage once and rap a poem called "Out In LA" and then it just went on from there..

[ClassyStarship]

Wrong. Flea was in a different band all together, called Anthym, of which Hillel was the guitarist for. Since Kiedis, Balzary and Slovak were such great pals, they wanted to create music together, a side project for Hillel and Flea, and Anthony was always a part of it. Jack Irons was the drummer for Anthym, thus "jack and hillel first."

[s7ightly4ltered]

thats what i thought cuz flea and anthony even went to school together

[metalpunk22]

So your saying Anthym turned into the RHCP?

[LUKAS327]

someone read "scar tissue" =)

[jalmuhs]

lmfao! 5:57

[BluesTS808]

what the fuck is that a cover of scar tissue? put the real song dammit

[kablooey]

i know wtf like??

[Zefilor]

at the begining, when theyre playing give it away, thats not john frusciante, thats dave navarro

[matthieeee]

sadly enough, it is. He can't play it like frusciante..

[ComeGetSomeDinner]

@Zefilor that was navarro's first show with them

[MrPowerJr]

@Zefilor yeah, when it says kiedes/balzary/fruciante/smith it means they recorded the song originally.

[KidFaw]

@Zefilor yeah it sucks

[DCKREAM]

this documentary sucks

[drunkencake]

Agreed

[Jirloow]

man i fucking hate these shitty ass documentaries.

The chilis arent even in it

[fabsternyc]

then there is the fat, bold pseudo journalist on the black leather couch, explaining how Anthony's dad moved the family to Hollywood as B movie actor....if the idiot only bothered to read Anthony's own book, he would know his dad never moved the family to LA. AK's parents split, his father moved to LA. AK was becoming difficult to handle for his mom and when he asked to join his dad in LA, he was allowed to move there.

[fabsternyc]

that moron, John Robb....what the fuck is he saying??? why do they use such idiots to tell the story of such a great band???

[FOOLinTHErain17]

no, flea got his name from his tendency to sit in bathtubs with a bowlingball, 3 sticks of dynamite, and about 3 pounds of cream cheese. he would then proceed to let loose millions of fleas, and they would be attracted to his body heat, get stuck in the cream cheese, and sit there like pets. flea would then play with the fleas and say "hello little fleas, do you like cream cheese". he would then put the dynamite ball in the cheese, drape himself in velvet, and blow it up from a safe distance:)

[DrBaddo]

Not sure how true that is but terrific story nevertheless, Cheers for sharing.

[philman302]

wat

[fleighton]

[greendayisnotgood]

[mrgbh1210]

[ConorS1]

Psychedelic Sexfunk was in '89! 2 days for new year of 1990!

[Jeremy1281988]

one of the best concerts in all of rock history!

[detsyn]

His real name is Micheal Balzary, and then he was called Mike B, and then it was Mike B the Flea, and then just Flea:)

[fabianfruehstueck]

because of the size of his dick

[WouterJ]

Nope according to Anthony Kiedis' book "Scar tissue" Flea got his nickname because he jumps around the stage so much.

[CJSticky]

Nope, well kinda...kiedis gave it him while they were on a ski trip during high school as michael wud always jump around on his ski's in a fly/flea like nature!

[lrowlands992]

hillel gave him the name not AK

[orangeambience]

No your both wrong he was given the name on a ski trip to mammoth by Keith Barry And Jk

[FLAVCO]

Why is Flea called Flea, does anyone know?

[nicole64123]

cause hes cool. duhhhhh. :]

[juultje93]

because at high school he shaved all his hair off. the kids on school thought he had fleas. funny story, don't you think? sorry 4 my bad english, i hope you understand it ;)

[20rebeka08]

no atualy he got his name by the groug of frainds taking mick out of them selfs with cartoon caricters thats how michel got his name flea

[Smellypuce]

its under the bridge not city of angels

[nicole64123]

ha yeah. really i mean get it right dudee. haha=]

[Fitplayer66]

they missed a lot of stuff in the childhood...like they didn't mention that hillel taught flea how to play base

[shawnzer06crahan]

I've always wondered about that light bulb thing they had.

[DandilionHearts]
