A chill runs through my core when I picture Anthony as an insurance salesman...

[sjblagger]

got to admire Blackies honesty,he makes no excuses for his behaviour weather it's right or wrong,i'm in no position to judge anybody respect to him 

[davelanghorn82]

im a massive fan of chilli peppers his dad was being honest about how he felt that the way he brought him up and his addiction but its made them closer as father and son anyway things happen for a reason we wouldnt have one of the finest front man thats a bonus

[Raad187KO]

amazing story, amazing father and son story.

[Antoine Gingras-Saint Louis]

Well, he would have been the most gorgeous insurance salesman around, that's for sure.

[Joseph Edward Smoke]

I'm very grateful that Anthony has survived his 'using' period. He has given us some very beautiful work. Not everyone has the resources ready available that a successful rock star has when it comes to medical treatment and starting a 'new' life. As a father and someone who has dealt personally with addiction, I would not promote " letting your kid do whatever he wants and turning him 'on' to a unhealthy lifestyle " If Anthony didn't survive, this interview would be singing a different story.

Thank you Blackie for sharing the LOVE!! I named my son after your boy and my son is my little Hero too <3

[cspj12]

it worked only in that his son didn't die. If he's claiming credit for his stardom, that's absurd.

[gutterziswin]

It's so touching to feel the fathers love for his son.

[gshdrums]

He may be in a good place now, but he is fairly fucked up because of his dad

[sergesification]

that's just so fucking touching. I couldn't hold in tears

[chainlightning58]

Got to admit: guess his game plan worked...just don't try it at home...
