Saw the Chili Peppers in Manchester on Tuesday 11/3 and after name checking New Order and Joy Division saying that the Chilis wouldn't exist if it hadn't been for them, Flea then added "and don't forget the greatest band in the world, The Smiths". Not much audience reaction though most weren't born probably looking at all the kids there. ---

What Utter Nonsense (Score:2, Interesting)
I am constantly amazed by the amount of ignorance and closed mindedness displayed on Morrissey-Solo. For the record, yes, I said ignorant. People that make ridiculous comments without seeing the big picture are downright ignorant. We’re living in 2003 and our kids aren’t even going to be lucky enough to grow up listening to the Chili Peppers, they’re gonna get Christina Aguilera or Justin Timberlake. Lets be real folks, the Chili Peppers have worked hard and have forcefully earned their place in musical history, what have you done? Don’t disrespect real music. Sure you may not like the Peppers style, but so what, that’s beside the point. Don’t disrespect them as a band. Their music is still being made straight from the heart, therefore making it REAL music. Yes, they get paid...but they’re getting paid due to the fact that they’ve worked so hard. None of you can say that the Peppers have had it easy. They had to fight and struggle! They were constantly told they weren’t good enough, that they weren’t what the world wanted to see, they weren’t icons. What have any of the so called bands nowadays done for credibility? Nothing! On the contrary, they have everything, including fame, handed to them because they’re fabricated. They’re doing their jobs and performing their obligations under contract. All the barriers have been broken by bands like the Beatles, the Smiths, Depeche Mode, the Peppers, Nirvana, etc. There will never be another Morrissey or another Red Hot Chili Peppers, all we have to look forward to is the next Justin Timberlake or The Donnas. Its so sad that most of you can’t see this. However, if you feel where I’m coming from, don’t just sit there, say something!

How influential (Score:1)
songs about being strung-out on heroin-
songs about bathroom stall abortions-
tuneless, lisping melodies-
socks on the genitals-
sexually pummeling audience members during shows-
OBVIOUSLY the charm and wit of Morrissey has rubbed off on them, right?
I cannot stand the Chili Peppers.
That zephyr song and scar tissue are painfully tortuous to listen to.
Sorry, guys- I am not impressed.
