Waffleflap Posted July 4, 2006 Report Share Posted July 4, 2006 Saw the chillis last night in reading and have to say how amazing they are live.They done about 10 off their new album and a great mixture of their old stuff.Musically they are up there with the best around, and if you don't believe me, go and see for yourself.Id also say that Flea is by far the best Bass player around at the moment. He sends out dance grooves that blow your mind and the man is so full of energy.Him and John Frusciante(most under-rated guitarist and singer) had a jam that just got the whole crowd pumped right up.The Chillis really are a class act and a must seeAlso like to point out that Ben Harper was also quality with a sound similar to the late jimi Hendrix.All in all a great night out and a quality stadium all round. ( you can actually have a pee without queing) CITY TAKE NOTE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolman_Stand Posted July 4, 2006 Report Share Posted July 4, 2006 Fully agree, was there too last nightThought they could have played the more modern stuff towards the end though, I don't really like any of their "pre-Californication" stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laner Posted July 4, 2006 Report Share Posted July 4, 2006 I was there too and it was a great concert.I'd never really heard any of Ben Harper's stuff but after last night that will change.First time at the stadium for me too and it really is nice... but leaving the car park was a nightmare!
