Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea's bass-only performance of the National Anthem wasn't everyone's cup of tea, but the musician tells TMZ, 'I don't care, man.'
Red Hot Chili Peppers just performed on one of the biggest stages in the world, playing the Super Bowl halftime show alongside Bruno Mars. But the performance has drawn some criticism as it was visibly noticeable that bassist Flea and guitarist Josh Klinghoffer were performing without their instruments plugged in.
Is Flea the most excellent dude is rock? Probably. Is the Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist’s debut EP ‘Helen Burns’ the most delightful surprise of the year? Certainly.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers have accomplished a lot in their almost 30-year career. They have sold over 65 million albums worldwide, sold out venues everywhere and were just inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. However, the band can add a first to their impressive list when they perform live in Israel later this year.
As we reported earlier, legendary bassist Donald “Duck” Dunn has died at the age of 70. Now rock luminaries are reacting to the news on Twitter.
