Never listened to a song by him. I'm sure I would've heard one somewhere though but just not known who it is. Everyone I know who goes on about him being awesome tends to have terrible taste in music.

Red Hot Chili Peppers on Super Bowl performance: Yep, we faked it

By Dana Ford, CNN
updated 8:55 AM EST, Wed February 5, 2014

(CNN) -- Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea just gave it away, confirming what everyone already suspected.

The rock group's halftime performance at Super Bowl XLVIII was pre-recorded. The band's guitars were not plugged in.

The Red Hot Chili Peppers performed Sunday night alongside Bruno Mars.

"When we were asked by the NFL and Bruno to play our song Give It Away at the Super Bowl, it was made clear to us that the vocals would be live, but the bass, drums, and guitar would be pre-recorded.

"I understand the NFL's stance on this, given they only have a few minutes to set up the stage, there a zillion things that could go wrong and ruin the sound for the folks watching in the stadium and the t.v. viewers. There was not any room for argument on this, the NFL does not want to risk their show being botched by bad sound, period," Flea wrote Tuesday on the band's website.

He said that he and his bandmates -- Anthony Kiedis, Josh Klinghoffer and Chad Smith -- thought long and hard about doing the show given those conditions.

"We decided that, with Anthony singing live, that we could still bring the spirit and freedom of what we do into the performance, and of course we played every note in the recording specially for the gig. I met and spoke with Bruno, who was a beautiful dude, a real talented musician, and we worked out something that seemed like it would be fun," Flea wrote.

He said the band was not trying to trick anyone.

The bassist continued: "For the actual performance, Josh, Chad, and I were playing along with the pre recorded track so there was no need to plug in our guitars, so we did not.

"Could we have plugged them in and avoided bumming people out who have expressed disappointment that the instrumental track was pre recorded? Of course easily we could have and this would be a non-issue. We thought it better to not pretend. It seemed like the realest thing to do in the circumstance.

"I am grateful to the NFL for having us. And I am grateful to Bruno, who is a super talented young man for inviting us to be a part of his gig. I would do it all the same way again."

Because the music/singing is more popular than the person (for once)

:clap: and isn't that a refreshing change? I am not his number one fan but I love his 360 performance style. A musician who can sing and dance, has soul and his own style and attitude. Most people like that don't get the recognition they deserve these days. Shame.

I don't hear anyone talk about his music or singing either.

Popular songs, sure...but no actual discussion about him or his actual work/talent.

Nothing.

:dead:

Maybe it's the sort of people you chat to. After all, he's hardly the sort of person who is media friendly. He doesn't aggressively promote his work and doesn't have a dramatic life story or ten that everybody knows about. The fact that he isn't tabloid fodder should not be mocked it should be celebrated! It's really rare to find that now in this tainted world.
