Flea And Anthony Are Into Funk, Like

People Who Come Up To Me Are Drummers Or Fans Of The Band. I Don't Get It Too Much, But I'll Be Somewhere And Someone Will Have Me Take A Picture Or Something.

Sometimes One Of Us Will Have A Riff Or A Bass Line From Home But It Really Gels When We Come Together. We Really Have A Strong Special Chemistry That We Take Advantage Of When We Get Together.

We Always Feel Pretty Creative As Far As Writing Songs. We Write Them Together; We Just Get In A Room, Or On Occasion In Flea's Garage. We Just Sort Of Improvise, Like Jazz Musicians.

Its Very Sort Of Spontaneous And Organic, Not A Preconceived Sort Of Jamming. Now We Record Everything, Cause Sometimes You'll Forget, You Know, 'what Was That Thing Again?' So We Record Everything.

I Just Played At A Club In L.a. Called The Baked Potato. It Fits Like 90 People. It's Like Playing Somewhere In A Basement In, Like, Indiana Or Somewhere Where All Your Friends Show Up. It's Really Fun And There's A Very Different Energy To That Than To Play To 50,000 At A Tokyo Baseball Stadium.
