I'm A Musician. It's What I Do! I Wouldn't Be Too Good At Anything Else.

Drums All Have Their Own Particulars - Each Drum Has A Place Where They Sound The Best - Where They Ring Out And Resonate The Best, And The Head Surface Isn't Too Loose Or Too Tight, Mainly So You Get A Good Rebound Off Of The Head.

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.

Flea And Anthony Are Into Funk, Like Old School Meters And Stuff Like That.

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.
