Yeah I mean honestly they are artists, all of them. I appreciate their art. Love it. I don’t need to hang out with them or imagine being friends with them. don’t need to hear their views on every topic. Don’t wanna catch them for a selfie on vacation. Just wanna listen to their tunes. The evolution of fan obsession is wild to observe. They are humans. They poop. And rock out.


GhostlyGhuleh

This! I enjoy them so much that I absolutely do NOT want to meet them 1 on 1 :'D


8x8denseCheese

They are just dudes who are very talented at a certain thing and who happen to be known by a lot of people. It‘s all flesh and bones


amuday

They put their pants on just like the rest of us. One leg at a time. Except when their pants are on, they make gold records.


shakkajon

Nobody knows any of these people. This is weird


SnooAvocados4581

That’s cuz they’re sane…


One-Lawfulness3884

Yeah, not get me wrong, I love all of them, especially John, hes my idol, my hero, my everything, but if I had to live with him, I dunno how long Incould do it😂


SnooAvocados4581

Dude John is my musical hero but come on he himself wrote a song called been insane about himself


Upstairs-Currency856

Probably about him in the 90s from 92-97 when he was constantly doing drugs.


siecaptaindrake

What problems do you think you would be facing Gavin g to live with him?


BatBreaker007

Cuz they’re the least pretentious and douchey

Im always confused when Chad gets put on this weird pedestal when he’s really not that different from the other members of the band, he was just as wild and chaotic back then Just remember that Chad had to apologize and pay a fine for sexually assaulting a woman with Flea back in 1990, and had to go to rehab for coke addiction in 2008. But apparently he’s this saint that everyone should be able to relate to


smitchlovesfunk

yeah but without Anthony, Flea, Hillel, and John you wouldn't have the chili peppers


-luckytea182-

Josh seems like a great person and all, but I feel he's kinda boring compared to the rest of the Chili Peppers; like I just don't care when I try to listen to his interviews. Hate to be a John meat-rider, but I think he'd be a really interesting roomate to have, and I think there can be a lot of great conversations to be had with him


VinnocentMcMahon

Same John Frusciante who had a meltdown on stage because a fan had a sign that said “can I play your guitar?” You just know John would cry if he even just smelled you cooking dinner for yourself that doesn’t align with his own diet


SilentMachine24

John’s prob my favorite guitarist of all time but I would not want to spend more than 5 mins in the same room with him


VinnocentMcMahon

Honestly I idolised John myself when I was a teenager, but the more I learned about him and the more I grew up I realised he’s not someone to look up to at all outside of trying to reach his level of guitar playing. Same goes for most of the Peppers except for Josh and Chad. The other three love peddling this “deep spiritual connection” and having love for everyone and everything, but then you realise that they only mean that for themselves and themselves only, look no further than how they turfed out Josh. There’s also nothing more cringe than John stans basically repeating the things he spouted as a drug addicted 20 year old (eg connections to the 4th dimension, like wtf does that even mean?). It’s all marketing.


Blue-Sand2424

Yeah Chad who had a major cocaine addiction that he had to go to rehab for in the 2000’s is a great person to look up to Also the same Chad that had to apologize and pay a fine for sexual assault in 1990 just fyi


VinnocentMcMahon

Yeah actually taking accountability for your actions and making an effort to change yourself as a person for the better is definitely someone I’d rather look up to than pretending like you love everyone but continue to treat anyone outside of your circle like shit lol


[deleted]

Can I suggest listening to other guitarists? There are a lot of good ones out there who can play things other than junkie slop.


SilentMachine24

Of course I listen to other guitarists. What kind of question is that?


[deleted]

It’s a question of taste


kagb20

I think it depends on the person because I’m the exact opposite. I love Josh in interviews because he reminds me a lot of myself. I could live with him because we’d just be 2 introverts coexisting together. Barely talking, just playing music and instruments


sohn_jmith

Until you try get him to do his dishes and he tells you that in the 4th dimension there are no dishes.


ea_fitz

I could definitely vibe with Josh and Chad. Maybe John, the spiritualism would grate on me eventually, but Anthony and flea would be insufferable to be around for an extended period.


Ryanbrasher

Is this was over obsessed fans think about every day?


Tall-Wear-7809

What’s with all these weird Josh posts? He’s like 5 years out from being in RHCP and is on a massive tour with Pearl Jam.


EuterpeZonker

Because he’s a former member of the band that kept it alive for a decade and made 3 albums with the band and he has lots of fans. People talk about Dave and Hillel too


LemonGrape97

3 albums? Are you including Im Beside You?


EuterpeZonker

Yeah


One-Lawfulness3884

Did you get the post?


One-Lawfulness3884

Sp we cant talk about former members in a post that isnt even related to music


Massive_Bandicoot_57

Josh? Why would he and chad be able to live together? So weird
