I am at peace with the world, and it with me.. (I hope)

The moment has finally come, the moment we've all been waiting for. Well, at least the moment I've been waiting for, but I speak for all of us now. Our emotional endeavours have finally come to a nice halt filled with optimism, complacency, relief and, in today's world, some even consider happiness.

As much as I would like to suggest that Steve Jobs has come up with an OS that also generates food and free money, or that John Frusciante has re-bonded with the Red Hot Chili Peppers, which of course, no such attempt has been made to make these things possible yet. The latter is a fact I'm still pining over, but I guess the show must go on. Which is what all artists respectfully practice. And Anthony Kiedis, being one of the music industry's most profound individuals, along with RHCP bassist, Flea, have finally decided to push on and give me some peace of mind this 30th of August. I am definitely with you!!

The Red Hot Chili Peppers are born again.  I wouldn't consider this a brand new start, even though Frusciante has been replaced by Josh Klinghoffer. (Pine, pine, pine) It's more like picking up from where they've left off, maintaining their style, yet making the evolution of their music unmistakably prominent. Finally, the 21st century will remember the meaning and the real, distinctive sound of Funk.


Here's their new single, "The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie". The link will lead you to their official site and all you have to do is click play to hear it. They've just released the tour dates and locations. annnndddddd also the track-listings for "I'm With You". Can't wait for the other 13 tracks to be out next month!!! EEEEeeeeekkkk!!!!

I'm going to be rational and mature about Josh playing OVER DISTORTED solos, and say... sure, I'll learn them anyway. Well apparently, one of the guitars that he plays is a Sunburst Tele, of which, according to some speculation online, was gifted to him by Frusciante himself. So, because of this, I will be patiently waiting and will be expecting only the best. Or else...
NOOOOooooo no no no no!!! No or else... I'm going to buy the album anyway.
