RHCP (especially Anthony and Flea) really looked like they were pissed of. Maybe that's because audience booed the support (suuport was poor but people shoudn't have done it...). Flea's got angry when some rag or t-shirt touched dow on his guitar (it was really stupid, "congratulatrions" to somebody who did it). Show was rather short (not more than 2 hours), no contact with audience (Flea and Anthony often talk to people, this time hardly they said any word). RHCP didn't looked "alive" on a stage (Is is true that Anthony broke 2 toes few days ago? But Flea was unusually static this night), rather like - "to go in, to play and to go out". John looked like has was most engaged in the concert and very nice Chad's attitude who thanked people after the show.Very well-played (in the musical meaning), but there were few Anthony's mistakes:) Great played Blood Sugar... and Throw Away... a little too long Give it away. But, in fact, they played only 19 songs. It's not too much (didn't play e.g. Otherside, Around the world, I could have lied, Easily, Parallel Universe). All in all event was ok, but I believe taht it would have been better. RHCP gave very good concert but not show.

Since when is a show "not more than 2 hours) considered a "short" show?  The band has got more control of their emotions than I would have if audiences ever booed my support act, especially if they were also my close friends, like Mars Volta and Mike Watt are. That stinks.

To me, it wasn`t that bad. But i think thats everyonce opinion.
I think it was great. But yeah, the guys could talk more to the audience. But they never did a lot, in the past. My opinion...

I think the really bad thing was when they booed when Flea personally thanked them "for rocking" (as he always does, but whatever).

Since when is a show "not more than 2 hours) considered a "short" show? Sorry, it's my mistake. 2 hours is not short. I remember Guns N'Roses shows which lasted about 2,5 hour and that's why firstlywrote that show was short:) But not the time was the problem. I had an impression that band (maybe except John) a little "passed through" the show. They went on the stage, played without satisfaction and went out. It was missing, in my opinion, the spontaneity and loose. Especially Flea looked like he had to play this evening not like the guy who wanted to play.

german audience were allways fucking assholes, nothing new... what a useless statement. c'mon man, seriously. just remember when they started to play their US tour and some pricks would boo at the mars volta. is this any better? did you then say something similar useless about americans? I've actually seen this happen with almost every rhcp opener when I was at their shows, you will find stupid people everywhere, they just want to see the rhcp and they are not open minded for new music they don't know. I was very happy that the audience yesterday did not boo Mike Watt, I kinda expected it, even heared a guy behind me say to his buddy "the opener will suck for sure, beware" and I just thought oh well, this will suck if all the people will be idiots like him not even knowing the band and then generalizing it to be shit because they open for the rhcp. but it was fine in the end ;D so now something new for you; german audience were not fucking assholes yesterday...
