their live shows from their stadium arcadium tours were some of the best. The best thing about the chilis is the live jams - aka new music to hear, obviously alot of the people here enjoy listening to bands/musicians who a) lack any skill/talent of playing their instrument b) enjoy going to see a band live to see them play identical versions of studio versions of their songs c) bands (aka the enemy/pigeon detectives/artic monkeys/razor light etc) who dont know the first thing about music. The reason the reading/leeds crowds were unreceptive towards them is because most of that crowd (in that year) were the casual radio 1 listeners who dig razorlight. You lot complain about the jams (&improvisations) thank god you people werent around to see Jimi Hendrix/Led Zeppelin even Miles Davis and a host of others etc - they did alot of improv and solo extentions. What it comes down to is that alot of you enemy/pigeon detectives/razorlight listeners lack the mental capacity to appreciate what John & Flea can do. And thank god they do the jams - at least when you see them you see advanced musicians doing things beyond alot of people - instead of these tossers who come with the most premium equipment to strum some open chords, even worse they cant barre chords so they use a cappo *cough razorlight cough*
