Chad and Flea Show

[PuuMastaFunk]

10 people have no taste for awesome.

This is more bad ass than just about anything I've ever seen. If a band's bassist and drummer opened up a show like this, I'd probably die from the sheer awesome.

[jimbubble]

These guys are extremely fast accurate and soulful.

By the way, first time I see Chad with no hat on.

[laionfirtin]

here is.. Fllllleea :P

[Sunshine2474]

Flea is sooooooo rad!!!

[unamaneramasreal]

[phatboy0069]

the guy in the drums looks like will ferell

[OrangeEntity]

thats what everyone says.

[bobopinkrabbit]

where is the rest of the video?

[justiceforkurt20]

chad is insane on drums and flea is a monster on bass and if it means anything john is the best guitarist ever and anthony kicks ass

[dor00012]

@justiceforkurt20

so true



[Randomheid]

Gotta love the interaction between drummer and bass guitarist in almost every band.. :D

[soundgardenohyeh]

Dude, Naked in the Rain? Is this before BSSM? That would be totally cool! Where the hell did you get this video?

[Hamypig]

this must of been before sex magik, since they're playin older songs. plus i think he got it from an old japanese show, hence the subs.

Another thing is that that was the hair chad had when he first joined the band, and they wanted him to cut his hair (well according to scar tissue) so yeah this is hellaver old!

[D1A2V3E4J]

Just after Sex magik, why would they play naked in the rain and the greeting song otherwise

[soundgardenohyeh]

Wow, even with the long hair Chad still looks like friggin Will Ferrel!

[xikissbloodylipsx]

fleas a freak on a bass.

[JohnG1991]

this is insane

flea is a legend

[GreenRafael]

Masterpiece

[jdorsal]

got to love the view of the bell around 6:40.

[farguswoptao]

wut is this. was this an actual show

[dubassaves]

i wish!!!!

[imperialaaazypher]

not it's a drummnig lesson video im pretty sure

[imperialaaazypher]

no, im pretty sure its from a drumming lesson video

[emmauelfan]

i just thought, when they start again approx. 3:30, its like tell me baby!

[emmauelfan]

its not just them that gel so well, its RHCP, they all gel so well, i saw the, live, and at the end, everybody (except anthony of course) had an improv jam at the end. and flea played trumpet! it woz so kool!

[emayano]

Really really hard to fin a better bassist/drummer duo! They're totally awesome!

[fishfoodlad]

Flea shits on every other bassist alive he is the best!

[abusahib]

have you tried Les Claypool? or Fingersmoran?

[boonokian]

your a fool

[OneBadUncleCharlie]

you are the fool boonokian. flea and les are both masters of the pop slap bass. u need to get out more

[boonokian]

when i started playing i was addicted to les, i thought he was the best bass player ever ..... when i was 12! and have moved on to players with real quality. so eat me, ive forgotten more about les than most people will ever know

[rrush2214]

i dident know will ferrel could play the drums!

(btw i know its not him, im just kidding, they look alike)

[Despa1rFact0r]

hahaha it does look like him. thats good stuff..

[blink182fanx1]

flea is amazing chad is awsome also. hes tryin to keep every beat hes doing going. that must be so hard, much respect to the both of them

[BarradasBass]

Amazing bass work and drumer work very nice

I love BASS, for me BASS is life x)

Nice one Flea

[dubassaves]

no the feeling nice to see semiler sentimets

[Gilgamex]

Flea isnt that great, seriously hes not an innovator really at all, so he can play a nice funky lick, doesnt mean anything i can too!!!

[groovyw53]

well man being in a popular rock band, he does way better and funkier stuff than any of the fools on mtv these days and he also is a good songwriter and great overall musician

[FACEmcGEE]

even though this video is about chad & flea, I'm going to argue about how they aren't as good as THIS artist!!

[skinsunit2]

Flea is the best in the world when it comes to bass. Fuck les claypool and fuck the guy from mr. big. Flea is the best in the world. As for drums, chad is like number 9 in the world and thats out of like 1 billion drummers! They are both better thatn me ;)

[TreeHuggingDude]

Hmm.. not?

Flea is wayyyy over rated (and that comes from a bassist)

Generally those whom are considered the best among bassists are:

Victor Wooten

Jaco Pastorius

Les Claypool

Stu Hamm

Larry Graham

Dont base that kind of things on personal preferrence.

[ethanstott]

all i know is that flea is one of the sickest funk bassists there is

[firmly6]

that is just totally incredible

in my opinion flea is the greatest bassist in the 1985-2000 rock music era

[ComradeWasabi]

I can't believe Flea's slapping. I can't come anywhere remotely close to that.

[arking88]

awesome, awesome, so so awesome!

[cartoonsfut]

damn they are good; totally locked into each other

[brainsaint]

iplay bass and i can say flea is fucking insane

[PlectrumPride]

LOL i could never play like that

[emayano]

Flea and Cliff are both incredible but playing a still so much different that we can't compare. Naked in the rain is probably my favorite by RHCP and it totally rocks!

My 2 cents

[wdsa8d]

wow they r good

[MikeGash1988]

if ever play bass half as good as flea ill be happy.hes insane.

[mrsaceyslade6661]

in my opinion i think Flea may just be the best bass player out there! i mean theres alot of great bass players but Flea owns them all. chad smith rocks as well. everyone in RHCP are all VERY VERY talanted. who here agrees flea and chad rocks???

[emmzemmz]

me but they all rock in rhcp

[Toungester]

I do agree Flea is very good. But he is not the best out there in my opinion.

[Be2Ni]

i but cliff burton is better i think not in slapping thats no question that flea can slap better but i like cliff better

[IM111JA]

love them<3

[121MrBassMan121]

PLEASE SUM1 TAB THIS.... n if any1 dus know where to get 1 frm. message me!!

[shokatsuryou]

Gotta love to watch this man playing. He's not human.

[luthervoncool]

YEA YEA.... flea's the best

[petahawk]

boring, 10000 better bassists and drummers out there-just boring, nothing special

[mastercrd]

boring comment from you,NOOB !

[thespleenfiend]

You're a fag.

[wdsa8d]

name me them man

[LouisGilbrook]

You're Just Looking For Attention Aren't You ?

[captainweaksauce]

he was born in melbourne, not sydney; which, is far from a "town".

[TheHawk91]

Flea is the fucking bass God!!

[jake84mich]

jerds13. . . flea couldn't touch victor wooten with a 10 foot pole. . . flea is amazing as hell but as time has gone on the chili peppers music has kinda gone down hill. . . .

[Gathandreal]

WHile this is partially true, imagine the musical results of putting them both in a room and locking the door...

[azza350]

FLEA IS AN AUSSIE! thats right born in sydney, which is my home town! sweet we have a claim to fame. great video thanks for posting

[wdsa8d]

he's from melbourne

[abcmex]

naked in the rain sounds exactly like Tell Me Baby

[ExitRorshach]

Man, thats some handsome bass work. Super swish!

[nicoguitar06]

Cool rythmics

[KOuliSs]

i love flea..and chad is awsome

[subslament]

[chelc227]

[reaganlp]

[Drratburn]

flea > Best bassist ever

[bob7man]

the drummer looks like will ferrell lol

[LEBARRUDA]

puxa vida acho que o portoga toca mais que o flea ahehaehaheha

[JMartyson]

ok Flea is a damn good bass player and Chad is really good @ drums but i dont care who u are, John Bonham is THE BEST DRUMMER of ALL TIME! Followed closely by Neil Peart

[LouisGilbrook]

One Of My Friends Argues That John Bonham Is Better Than Chad Smith But The Only Reason He Won't Admit He's Wrong Is Because He Is So In Love With Led Zeppelin. I'm Sure You're Exactly The Same.

Chad Smith Kicks John Bonham's Arse.

[JMartyson]

r u fuckin insane? do me a favour look up Moby Dick on youtube, tell me if you change your mind

[LouisGilbrook]

Yeh, Don't Get Me Wrong He Was A Great Drummer, One Of The Best And I Have Seen His Drum Solos Countless Times, But Chad Smith Is Better :)

[JediABC]

It's Japanese

[bob7man]

taken away my god the flea and chad fucking rock

[timmyb12345678912345]

yeah

[steeldrone1]

I guarntee all of you The red Hots are going To be the best band of this century

[Hatoakazo]

[lpgd4010]

[AcquiesceAlan]

[Numsefisk25]

[malaka45]

[FleaFan91]

Flea and Chad are so f#cking good on this video! Does anyone know if this is the only video there is? Or are there more video's from chad and flea jamming?

[sublime647]

[lionzion77]

rock on! amazing guitar. i love how chad hits the bass drum right when flea is slapping a note.

[kurtsgroessterfan]

they're both incredibly good... There won't ever be a better band then the chilis! :D

[lakadaka]

why is there japanese words on the screen? is this on any certain video

[omgzidaneheadbut]

Chad is really really good. flea is really really good. This video is really really good.

[chrismans]

flea is all good but if you like great i mena really great bassists search youtube for jonas hellborg hes the god

[bassslapper]

if YOU want to see the god .... you have to watch my bass teacher .... i dont distend .... he is a real god.... i want him to make a video and then do it on youtube.... if he makes it i will tell you .... real god ! klaus neuberger !

[sublime647]

jonas hellborg is good but he is tryong to be a guitar player hes is not a bass god though  he has a lot of talnet but flea is the real god here

[Cazkerr]

I'm bassist in my band and me and my amte who is guitar and way better on drums are doing a version of this. :P

[change2000]

he´s a good bass player, indeed, but when he stop his slapping, seems like don´t know what to do, in that same level I prefer to Les Claypool.

[ssxxxss]

If anyone could get a tab for this could you please email it to me at dylanrolfe@austin.rr.com (I only want the first song up until 2:26)

[coreybrouwer]

Chad is not actually an underrated drummer...He is rated as the number 1 funk drummer in the world and with good reason. The guy is an amazing musician. Flea and Chad create such a tight groove and when you throw John in the mix with his amazing ideas, guitar tones and chord voicings... oh man nothing could be more solid to sing over after that. RHCP!!!

[willth]

Michael Balzary

and hes frecking amazing

damn how does he move his fingers around the chunkey bass strings so fast

chads pretty good too!

[DaHobo333]

what is flea's real name!?

[y2killer2344]

DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!flea is a GOD!!!! He is one of the most AMAZING bassist alive. He's up there with Noel Redding, John Paul Jones, and Chris Squire!!! FLEA ROCKS!! GO RHCP!!! WOO!

[jimmyaka]

tab please anyone?????????????

[rustyshackleford69]

you should just train your ears, tabs suck

[jimmyaka]

i know but im a lazy busy man!

[brakkum]

flea is my hero

[paulunga]

Basically the whole band is fucking awesome. Flea's my idol though.

[ksgant]

Chad is definitely a very underrated drummer. All the spotlight goes to Flea and John as great musicians, but Chad holds it all together and I think he deserves the recognition that the others get. Very impressive.

[bjooo]

god himself

[Qingston]

Both are amazing musicians!

[Ragabash]

"no double pedal" amazing ^^

[COBLOG]

They fucking rock I'm glad that theres RHCP

[coldsaint87]

i think they're all insane- that's what makes them such cool dudes

[Pitchaxistheorem]

Flea gots some itchy hands there :D

[lonelykimiko]

Both of them are doing a fantastic job here :D

[Brian3D]

That is some fast ass bass!

[Jmdavis]

Flea is an amazing bassist. He is very flexible, able to do anything.

[nikklazz]

So fuckin' cool! I love this stuff

[fintan]

i think Flea is insane

[ScottZoltok]

That was awesome. Flea makes it look so easy.

[firdaus125]

flea's slapping is amazing ...

[drummer116]

i don't know why chad gets so sweaty hes just doing some quick hi hat and snare work. flea is awesome though not as good as the best basist in the world, victor wooten.

[fknavid]

dont forget the kick foo! haha.

[jerds13]

This video is really old, so by now flea is almost as good as victor wooten, but i don't disagree, victor wooten is amazing.

[hondelyk]

kolesie sa spoczko :)

[nikklazz]

Flea is awesome..

[oswaldisinnocent]

One of the best clips i've seen on this whole website.

[LUCPAC]

THIS GUYS AMAZING
