I don't know, it's what Blackie says. He's sending her stuff all the time, like fanclub magazines and a Californication tourbook signed by Anthony especially for her. She's one of Blackie's nice blondes on MySpace, he's been begging her to get her address

Docu is all about the Peppers, lots of old stuff with Hillel, and John close to death in 1994. Few images of 24/06. The interviews with fans are only a small part of the docu EW i want the organ grinder not the monkey ;D Totally agree ;D

Sadly, the quality didn't turn out as expected, so no bootleg just yet Most of the concert is on YouTube now, though in pieces: forum.pepperfans.nl/showthread.php?t=1692&page=1&pp=10

Further to that, here's the translation of the interview with the documentary maker: The Red Hot Chili Peppers have a Dutch connection
Source: 3voor12.vpro.nl/artikelen/artikel/35281071
On Thursday 28 June 2007 Dutch network VPRO broadcast the film "Red Hot Chili Peppers: A Dutch Connection". It is a documentary about the 'Peppers', a compilation of material gathered by programme maker Bram Van Splunteren over the course of eight encounters with the band: "Eventually the programme editors got fed up with me constantly filming the Peppers, hahaha!"
The oldest material dates back to the winter of 1988. Van Splunteren: "Back then I was making a series of documentaries for the VPRO. I had made film portraits of Nick Cave and John Hiatt, and also wanted a young act. Through someone at record shop "Get" in Amsterdam, I ended up with the Peppers. Their third album had just been released and the band was coming to Europe. I wasn't terribly impressed by their music, but live they were great: they were spirited and radiant."
Van Splunteren first met the band in Switzerland, and, to break the ice, brought along videos of their favourite acts. In the hotel room, while the camera was running, he showed them images of Sly Stone, Bootsy Collins and Parliament [Funkadelic]. "All those clips were bang on. They loved it and were so suprised, they immediately showed their true selves. Flea later told me that they had initially wanted to make fun of me, to make a fool out of me. But it became the start of a good trip." Van Splunteren and crew ended up following the band for a week.
Especially the friendship with Flea grew quickly on that first tour. Van Splunteren: "Straight away I had a long interview with him in his bed. He instantly confided in me, really." That conversation became the basis for a friendship that has lasted to this very day. "Last year, at Pinkpop, he came walking over to me from quite a distance to greet me. We still exchange email. But nowadays they are so busy; sometimes he doesn't even respond."
The Red Hot Chili Peppers' career has been turbulent: the band was haunted by drugrelated problems and, shortly after the first meeting with Van Splunteren, guitarist Hillel Slovak died of an overdose. His youthful successor John Frusciante also fell victim to the temptation of drugs. Van Splunteren: "The strange thing is that I never noticed anything while filming. Only later, reading the drugrelated stories, I found out they were all dealers who came to settle with the manager."
One of the most gripping parts in the report is the visit to Frusciante, early nineties, after he had left the band and lived as a junkie in Venice Beach. In this new compilation of the old material it has become an essential moment. Van Splunteren: "It's wat in Hollywood they call the 'all is lost' moment." That is the moment three-quarters into the film where for the lead character all seems lost.
Because in this instance, the film maker has chosen to make the fallen guitarist to be the lead of his film. "In that first interview, Flea says that the band has to grow to be able to continue. Then the guitarist dies. Next, Frusciante appears as saviour, but he then leaves the band. After that, the band collapses. Eventually, friends arrange for Frusciante to get into rehab and return to the band. It is a touching story."
With the joining and especially re-joining of Frusciante, successful times came to the Red Hot Chili Peppers. The band left the clubs behind them to start playing the stadiums. To celebrate, each band member had a swimming pool built in their garden. Van Splunteren went to Hollywood to visit the Peppers at home: "Only later did I find out that singer Kiedis had been angry with us for not coming around his house to film him. But during that time it was impossible to get hold of him." Anthony Kiedis does have the biggest ego of the Peppers. Van Splunteren: "Only now do I see that the band members sometimes had arguments during filming." The footage of Kiedis and Frusciante playing Under The Bridge on a boat in Amsterdam illustrates that.
Van Splunteren followed the band for a long time, but only lately has he learnt to appreciate their music: "I like their latest album [Stadium Arcadium] best. It has songs that you can easily sing along to and I am a sucker for those." To a journalist, not being a fan of your subject bears advantages: "I think it contributed to the quality of the material. But I also realise how naive and curious I was. I was suprised at everything."
Last weekend [24th June], Van Splunteren also managed to film the band at the Goffertpark in Nijmegen [Netherlands], and talk to Flea and a few die-hard fans. That footage will be included in the film. He also got to present the band with an award for selling 100,000 copies of their album.

Hahahaha seriously? Marike is my friend, I'm gonna talk to her and ask her to borrow me some peppers stuffs hahaha (just kidding marike! ) Well done Marike, Blackie really loves you 'cause girl... one time I made a joke with him 'cause Blackie said something funny about one pic of her and I leave a comment for him "don't be rude to marike LOL" but kidding to him and unfortunately he took it seriously and man... what a mess! It took a long for me to explain him that I wasn't giving him a lecture, I was joking. But now he knows how annoying I'm and in the end, it took 2 blogs from him to me LOL hahaha Anyway, Marike is great. Totally different from other girls who are so damn cocky just because they're close to him or whatever. This is so ridiculous. BTW, was Marike who appeared on TV right Gong Li? Or that one was Nath? (great girl too) Gosh I'm confused now hehehe

(great girl too) Gosh I'm confused now hehehe It is Marike in the docu And no she's not stuck-up at all Well I made a joke last year to Blackie, that Marike doesn't date anyone over 40. He took that very wrong, so I apologized. Later on when I sent him a message about how cool it was of him to learn Dutch, he responded in a very sarcastic way. So I never sent him anything again and took him off my list. After all I was only interested because of Anthony.
