Red Hot Chili Peppers with Patti Smith

[sydneyandersonband]

Who else is totally excited for Patti's new album "Outside Society" to be released 8/23?! I can't wait!!

[michaelocinneide]

i wouldnt buy that lads.. chilis are great and maybe dont owe anything to Patti but Patti has more integrity than any musician Ive ever heard or seen. Hands down. she is a bit of a poster girl for that generation in fairness but massively relevant still.. just read rimbaud...

[yancybutler]

@michaelocinneide hmmm...research Ani Difranco. That lady did it without a label.

[whothehellgivesadamn]

not quite right yogini....

1. patti didn't invent the punk movement, she contributed to lyrical presentations in her era which was mid to late seventies,thats about it, i saw her live at the whiskey in like 75 i think, she was great, but like dylan she did her thing and then became irrelevant, for bob the wall was in 66, but he kept going creatively for another ten years and then his wheels when completely flat

2. the peppers are pure talent, skill, integrity, humility and are nice guys

[yogini1992]

she is considered to have made the very first punk record in 1973, research that in case you care, the record was entitled Hey Joe/Piss Factory and is a legend. the peppers wouldnt have gotten far without her, but let me tell you i am a huge peppers fan and used to listen to them like every night before falling to sleep (ha i know that sounds funny its not exactly classical music or something super chill)...anyway people need to learn who patti smith is im shocked more people dont know

[yogini1992]

patti smith (look her up if you don't know much) is freakin' legend, and the peppers are really really good...awesome. this is good its just the sound quality isn't the best so people quit whining about the sound quality because it is really hard to take a video with a very low-quality camera at a concert with thousands of people with that much raw energy from the godmother of punk and those boys and fans going nuts...yeah. anyway i like it

[slippolives]

This is horrible

[concretebabybaby]

@slippolives I agree, and it's totally self indulgent.

[whothehellgivesadamn]

wrong robert.........ive seen both of them live...and the chilli peppers are very wonderful people that goes beyond just their entertaining play.........they are fun and they are really nice guys.......the essence of good entertainment....

[trentpark1]

Patti and the Peppers, what a combo. I saw Patti In 78 in a small club in E.Hartford. A very special experience!

[indy26211]

what is the name of this song ?!

[whothehellgivesadamn]

patti was the lucky one...the chili peppers are some of the nicest people in the solar system...i can't say much more than that because I haven'et been to any other parts of the milkyway or other galaxies yet...

[55roberto55]

@whothehellgivesadamn the chili peppers were the lucky w patti

[yogini1992]

@whothehellgivesadamn she is the nicest lady i have ever met and i believe you about the peppers being that nice too, they were both really lucky- patti is legend, largely considered the godmother of punk and for making the very first punk record way back in 1973 when most people were still hippies and it was like "wow!" when that record hit and the peppers are at this point legends too. both patti and the peppers are important to music because both are innovative so theres no need to argue

[slash46xx]

i was thyere was amazing

[upsidedownninja]

like two of my favourite musicians. just, fucking, wow.

[ggforeigner]

awh, patty the maitresse of all ceremonies...and with the chili peppers...

does anyone have a better recording???

[pigboycooter]

ow! Invest in a good mic, puhleeze! I saw her play sm pier last night. It was great.

[Sanarye]

I saw her in Miami in 1977 or 78 i forget but the Tom Petty band was the opening act for her. Tom got electric fried by the mic.

[Meta41k]

She made a stop in seattle about 8 years back (roughly), and she did a spoken word in a small room at the emp afterwards and I probably sat about 5-6 feet away from her.  Great experience!

[pigboycooter]

that's so cool! About 7 years ago I sat 2 tables away from this guy whose cousin was married to the roommate of a girl who used to cut Patti's hair, but maybe not these days. She just works a barber shop on 47th and Vine.

[ChuckHitler]

Those lucky bastards got to meet Patti Smith the Great!!!!!

[yablowzer]

I saw the chili peppers on the Uplift Mofo Party Plan tour in Detriot (Patti's home). Since then singer Anthony has morphed into a modern mundane Roger Daltery. Patti Smith is anti rock star and anti ego and I would pay top buck to see her.

[gregkosinski]

Well, I think that Patti Smith represents what rock'n'roll was all about in its pure form... I saw her many of her performances in London and New York. Do try to see her live, it's quite an experience!

[jewishpianoman]

yablowzer is praising patti and criticizing kiedis.

[OsvaldoPaese]

This is so cool.

[slash46xx]

was there the song is people have the power

[maggotbrain342]

what song is it they're playing???

[icedhermy]

[o0SayNoToEmo0o]
