Last time we were in class, the subject  was that RHCP preformed at the Super Bowl and everything but the vocals were fake. Then we read over Flea's "apology" letter. All of this makes me mad. The fact that the band was unplugged the whole performance is the least of my problems.The fact that suddenly Flea has a right to talk for the whole band and that everyone is now putting these characteristics of treachery and deceit on the band because of what Flea explained. I guess I am a little disappointed in the band that the rest of them didn't say something as well. But I'm also appalled that the Super Bowl management demanded that they not preform live but with recorded instruments and only live vocals. There's a lot of things that were messed up in this whole situation. Yes RHCP did wrong, yes they didn't even try to hide it, and yes the super bowl management has something to do with it too.
But RHCP has always been a great band, they have always been great people, and they have amazing life performances. (ACL 2012) They've been a great band through thick and thin and I think we should accept they messed up (they should too) and we just get over this. I am a very bias opinion on this matter because RHCP have always been my idols and I grew up on them. They have been in my life since before I can remember. I do love them to death. (Not literally) I really don't know what to say to this, all in all I am upset, but for many reasons.
Thanks for reading
Have a great 3 day weekend!
