There are a load of photos on the forum of RHCP members at the game yesterday. Flea, Anthony Kiedis, Josh (with AK & Flea) and video of Chad arriving.
There are lots of new photos on the forum e.g. of Flea and AK at various Lakers games over the last couple of weeks e.g. this one from yesterday (15th June)

A Facebook campaign has been started to try to get Red Hot Chili Peppers to number 1. Full details on the forum
Total Guitar (June 2010) is featuring full bass & guitar tabs plus CD (full MP3 and backing track) for Mellowship Slinky in B Major. More details on forum
Blackie (father of Anthony Kiedis) has just posted on FB to say his book is in the hands of his agent so now really is the time to show that there is a lot of support for it amongst the RHCP community (and yes, the book is relevant to RHCP as a whole). More details & links in this info page Blackie’s Autobiography Information
A new album featuring a collaboration between John Frusciante & Omar Rodriguez Lopez became available (unexpectedly?) for download today! It is a seven track album and can be downloaded in different formats e.g FLAC or MP3.
The album is free although donations can be made when downloading which will be given to ”Keep Music In Schools”.
This is just a rumour as yet but it’s come from (I’m told!) a very reputable gaming blog. It’s claimed that Red Hot Chili Peppers music will feature on a special band edition of Guitar Hero that will be released next year.

NME (British music magazine) are holding a competition to find the most iconic album cover and a couple of Red Hot Chili Peppers ones are featured (although they have the wrong image for BSSM!) e.g. Californication.
As some of you may know, Blackie Dammett (Anthony Kiedis’s father) has written an autobiography. However, the RHCP fans who eagerly await said book are disappointed because Blackie is having issues finding a publisher who is willing to take on a new author. A Facebook group has been set up to show that there is support and demand for this autobiography to help try to convince a publisher to print it; if you use Facebook, please could you join the group and give your support? Thanks!
A massive thread has just been added to the forum with reviews of every venue, loads of Youtube vids, setlists where possible & photos of Flea struttin’ his funky stuff!
