while we are on the subject. theres a video somewhere on youtube from saturday night live when john really plays like shit on purpose and is stoned, pretty much right before he left the band. anthony wrote something about that occasion in scar tissue aswell.
Yeah its way out of tune but its still a very raw and cool performance. That says a lot about the band. John will be missed but josh will be great, trust me!
It's not actually out of tune, what happened was that john frusciante played a different song on purpose (that's why the title said yertle the turtle) because he was at a breaking point with thte band. He played a song that flea had completely forgotten how to play, probably because it was shown to him to stay in key.
ive noticed in all these older shows John is an ANIMAL with his improv... not that he doesnt do any more recently or anything, but he seems alot more cautious now, kinda like back then anything went... the off notes are what makes this beautiful
yertle the turtle :DD

Such a powerful solo by John. He played what he felt like, and he didn't feel like being in the band.
