Guest Len B'stard Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 He's just a crap Iggy Pop. Who by the way, is older and still more energetic that Keidis was on his best day. Having said that i do love the Chili Peppers, great fuckin' band, very original and passionate people with extremely good taste in music and great influences and...i dunno, it just all came together brilliantly with those guys, one of the most important bands of their era.

izzygirl Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 He looks really great and healthy and yes, it seems that some "old" rockstars are taking care of themselves. That's good, I guess, especially because they are a reference for a lot of young people. That said, I still like the Keith Richards' style. Quote
Estranged Reality Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 He does remind me of Iggy Pop, in terms of his physical appearance. He's kind of short and buff, solid build, but that doesn't really mean he's some kind of Jack LaLanne. I think he'd look like that even if he were still shooting up heroin - when you're jumping around on stage like he does, it's gonna keep you fit. Quote
Guest Len B'stard Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) The old myth of the drug addled rockstar is bullshit, they ain't been like that since the 70s ended and even then it was only a handful that were really like that, they've been health freaks for ages now, bar a few exceptions, part of why their whole glamourising of certain drugs is fucked up cuz, y'know, they can afford fuckin' rehabs etc etc etc whereas your street level crackhead just dies before he's 40, i don't reckon Keith Richards has some amazing constitution, he can just afford to eat and live good.He does remind me of Iggy Pop, in terms of his physical appearance.

Even his dancing is kinda like a...more well defined version of Iggys particular spazz out form of dancing. Iggy apparently writes all of his lyrics on the spot in the studio while he's listening to the shit, i find that fascinating as well as hard to believe. I mean songs like Blah Blah Blah, they kinda do feel unrehearsed but at the same time there's just too much to them contentwise for them to be totally off the cuff. And Keidises style is like that too. Edited November 2, 2012 by sugaraylen Quote
NightProwler Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 He's got nothing on Bruce Springsteen. The dude is 61 or 62 and he's in insane shape. Quote
wasted Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 He's kind of the 90s David Lee Roth. Both their bios were great reads. Quote
Thin White Duke Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 Never liked Kiedis (don't know why) but he is damned good. Quote
