[Stub Mandrel]

Interesting short article. Flea is always thoughtful.

Funny how we don't have a 'bass players' topic...

It’s funny, I’ve never liked RHCP, I like him though. I follow him on Instagram, he comes across as a very interesting person. Thanks for sharing the article, I hadn’t seen that.

I’m the same,  he always comes across as a very thoughtful, passionate, articulate and warm human being.

I’m not a fan of much rhcp since one hot minute came out as Antony Keidis’ lyrics/melodies in later records make me feel queasy but I always love listening to flea’s basslines and his interviews, seems like such a cool guy.

I remember finding woodlice in Razzle.

The internet has robbed our children of so many valuable experiences.

Well yes , finding the carrier bags dumped under the canal bridge for instance , always a treasure trove ..........it just seemed so natural at the time 😇

Yep, shame Flea didn't write the lyrics...

Love the band, love the man.

His autobiography is a fantastic read too.

I’ve had the pleasure of meeting and having a good chat with him.  He is a genuinely warm and generous spirit.
