    Yeah, I'm pretty positive that is the case, however, there is that slight doubt in my mind. I just hope he hasn't hit a low or started using again.

    I will drag his ass to rehab personally if so... I cant even place my finger on what I think about it. I am so so sad. But if John just wasnt happy with it anymore and couldnt do it, I'm happy he didnt just stay in it for the sake of it, and make half hearted music. One of the things I appreciate most about the RHCP is they make music for the right reasons.. unfortunately those right reasons might be what bit us fans in the ass this go around :(

    so sad... while I wasnt really a fan of the music.. I totally understand how people felt like crap. And what he meant to them. Fortunately John Frusciante is not dead yes, and I would never compare him leaving a band, to the loss of human life.. I still feel like part of me is missing today. Lol yes obsessed much eh?

    Time for him to start doing some more work with the Mars Volta.

    He does the beginning and end solo I believe in this song.

    Which video? I like the Mars Volta and think they're awesome. Definitely not as cookie cutter as the Red Hot Chili Peppers. In fact the Red Hot Chili Peppers helped the TMV to become a band. Flea played bass on their first album.

    :biglaugh: thank you for the laugh about the thread reminder in this trying time. On that note.. I do actually like the Mars Volta I dont know which song that is though. But they opened for the Chili Peppers last time.. they didnt sound that great in the Rose Garden though, they are more of a small building sound with how much they have going on all the time.

    I still feel pain from the day Joe Walsh 'walked away" from The James Gang back in '71.

    Stadium Arcadium was sadly above average commercialized garbage, better then most thats out today, but still crap compared to their best days. Same can be said for tons of artists, Green Day, Ice Cube, Snoop and so on.

    Music today, especially the mainstream is utter garbage and a insult to be called music.
