    This is going to be interesting to see how Josh plays with them.

    agreed. I will say from what I have seen of Josh... (the benefit concert, and the two national anthems at Staples Center, and at Dodger Stadium) he moves a lot like John. Like I said before, if I absolutely HAD to choose someone to replace John, it would be Josh... but yeah its a hard pill to swallow still.

    Do you have any video performances of Josh with them?

    He may move like John, but does he translate his emotion through his music like John did? Is it even possible to do that like John did?

    Yeah, I have his solo stuff but I don't listen to it much.

    The past week, all I've been doing on youtube is watching his solo's. I think it is absolutely amazing how he translates his emotions through his guitar.

    When Hillel Slovak died, the Chili Peppers died for me too.

    love his solo stuff. I still remember when I first heard Murderers from To Record Only Water... I was mesmerized.
