^ Seen the Red Hot Chili Peppers last Friday in Ottawa, they were amazing.
You're GD right they are man.
I *will* say this though--I am a big fan of Klinghoffer on the guitar (the guy that they brought in after Frusciante left for the second time), have no issues on his guitar playing ability, but I do very much miss Frusciante's backing vocals on their songs. He had just the absolute *perfect* voice to compliment Keidis'.
Saw them in Wichita back in January, and it was a pumping show, and then my fiancee and I caught them on her birthday in KC back on May 21 and that show had an EVEN BETTER setlist than the Wichita show (and I got a copy of the setlist afterwards too!)
They're definitely a great live experience.
