Meet The Red Hot Chili Peppers in Los Angeles

November 4, 2010 is a day Red Hot Chili Peppers fans have been waiting for! Anthony Kiedis, Chad Smith and Flea will be making an appearance at Barnes & Noble: The Grove at Farmer’s Market in Los Angeles to sign copies of their book The Red Hot Chili Peppers: An Oral/Visual History. Please see below for event rules and regulations.

“I am struck with the moments of these photos, the feelings of the times they were taken, and where we were at on our beautiful and happy-sad journey. It’s pretty fucking heavy, actually, like thinking how much we have changed over the years, and all the different dynamics of our lives that shaped us, and also realizing so clearly that nothing has changed at all—we’re all still just trying to get it on, make something great. It is all here, nothing can hide: all the honesty, the pretense, the courage and one-of-a-kind-ness, the unbridled joy, the melancholy, and the shields we put up to shelter our scared, vulnerable little selves.” —Flea

 

Please note:

  • Only those in possession of a bracelet will be granted admittance the day of the signing. 
  • A limited number of bracelets will be available at Barnes & Noble: The Grove at Farmer’s Market beginning on Wednesday, November 3 at 9:00 am PST.
  • The band will only be signing copies of The Red Hot Chili Peppers: An Oral/Visual History. No albums or memorabilia, please.
  • The signing will begin promptly at 12:00 pm PST. Please arrive early.

Pearls of Wisdom from Mr. Gene Simmons

Showing off the 10 pound book! (seriously, it's 10 pounds)
Showing off the 10 pound book! (seriously, it’s 10 pounds)

We followed legendary KISS rocker Gene Simmons yesterday as he toured morning shows and book signings in NYC to promote his new book, KISS KOMPENDIUM (on-sale today). The experience was…entertaining, to say the least. Here’s what we learned from Gene about love, life, and being a very powerful and attractive man:

Gene does not smoke or drink. (Hear that folks? Straight edge is cool).

He does all his own makeup before shows, which takes him about 2 hours.

Gene was born in Israel and moved to the U.S. when he was 8. He also studied at a Yeshiva for a time before he started his music career.

His thoughts on that whole Tiger Woods situation: Women need to get a hobby. Why would a guy want to have sex with other women if he’s married? Because he can. Men are only driven by sex, period. Women need to stop obsessing about what he’s thinking and start worrying about their own lives.

Similarly: Girls grow up and mature, but men are always 12 year-old boys at heart.

On why he didn’t get inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but  ABBA did: KISS has sold more than 80 million albums. You can’t beat that, no matter what some committee says.

The craziest thing a fan has ever done upon meeting him: Too dirty to print.

Comment below with your questions for the rocker !
