I'm Being A Dad And A Good

The Juxtaposition Of Words - The Color, Feeling, And Sound Of The Words Together - Has As Much To Do With The Story As The Narrative Itself Does.

I Was In Every Band Class I Could Get In, Like After School Jazz Band And Marching Band, And That's Where I Really Learned To Read Music From Elementary All The Way Through Junior High And High School.

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.

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.

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