At this point I can’t stand to hear anything past/present from that band at all anymore. It’s solely because of Keidis. I have no problem with the guys making the actual music. I hate his voice and I hate his stupid lyrics. From what I’ve read he is also not a cool guy.

Is Les Claypool still alive in that world where Flea is the greatest?
Removed by mod
I don’t think Flea is better than Les, but I can totally understand such an opinion. They’re both awesome but, in my opinion, Les Claypool is (even) more unique and innovative than Flea.
About Tim Henson…I disagree 200% even though he’s not exactly my preference.
Tim Henson is trash, imo, for the reasons you described. A product of the tik tok era where appearances and ego are the only factors considered, leaving any substance as the happenstance of an anomaly.

I’m probably out of the loop.
What has Anthony Kiedis done to make him a douche bag?

This is the first I hear of that. Could you give us a source?
Scar Tissue by … Anthony Kiedis himself.
Also going back what he has done to bands like Faith No More back in the day.
What did he do?

As a casual fan, enlighten me, why’s he a douche? I loved the Chilli Peppers in middle /high school, but haven’t really paid any attention to them since.
It’s amazing that Chad Smith, Flea and John Frusciante are all at top of their respective instruments, in a band led by a guy who isn’t even the best shitty rapper.
Damn since when did everyone start hating on Red Hot Chili Peppers?

Fuck a doorknob. California. Buttermilk pancakes in my eyes. Stepped on a toad. Broke a Navajo code. Now it’s time to reiterate California. (https://youtu.be/VE5JMEu5hZA?si=vrLE9XYBxou8lYgw)
Everything up to Blood Sugar Sex Magic was pretty legit. I’m not saying it went to hell because Keidis got clean, but it did happen about the same time…
His book is a harrowing ass read tho
