Red Hot Chili Peppers

The Red Hot Chili Peppers returned to live on tour status with a secret outdoor performance outside a library in Big Sur near a one of Flea's homes. The band debuted material from the new Chili Peppers album I'm With You to a 300-person crowd of Flea's neighbors and friends of the band and new members, guitarist Josh Klinghoffer and percussionist Mauro Refosco, who played with Flea in Thom Yorke's side project Atoms for Peace. The band is road testing the new material and cleaning out the cobwebs on two more secret shows before they embark on the Asian leg of the Chili Peppers tour next week.
