My hero and inspiration for picking up a basss

[Tommy-ewrm]

I was somewhere among that crowd. About 20 beers down and in tears of awe.

First time I picked up the bass after playing the guitar for years I realised how hard it is. To organise all your fingers to pluck, slap and pop strings on the bass is crazy. Then flea makes it look effortless and flies up and down the neck

This bass player has a promising future ahead of him.

I know Flea is a fan of Metallica, it sounds like he took a page out of the Cliff Burton book when he did this distorted bass solo. Flea is the man and an absolute killer god of a bass player that can play practically anything. I am a huge fan. Extremely talented dude.

Oh it's that guy from back to the future!

We want new album. We're dying for this 😭

[jaymanvegas]

That extra sound that comes from hitting the strings super hard with your pick hand is something only a bass player will understand.

[GretgorPooper]

Flea is the heart and soul of funky 90s rock.

Why Needles and Marty McFly never recorded together is one of music's big mysteries.

[fetalmossy]

Everything about him is beyond this world, legend

[StevenMcFlyJunior]

He still has it
He will never lose it
Rock Forever

I absolutely love flea as a musician and an amazing human being!

[Danowzz]

loved this playing since the beginning, controlling so many Technics and still hanging kept his place in the whole synchronicity of the band...awesome player and truely one of my heroes.
Even love the compassion which is often misunderstood by anger or temper.
a driven sou lwith a golden heart ❤

I was there! Remember listening to around the world from this set on BBC iPlayer a few times over the following days as it blew me away

[marcusringer]

A solo by a bass player is quite rare. This pushes the woofers to their limits.

[jays]

Go flea! Your my favourite bass player and when I play my bass I really imagine me being just like you when I grow up

[eliasK]

Saw them live in Cologne back in 2016. Flea played a similar solo as the intro Jam for Around the World. The whole Arena was shaking! miss this night...

The spirit of Hillel Slovak lives on in the Peppers music. Back in the day he took Flea under his wing and taught him how to play bass guitar. Decades later, Flea would still get emotional when talking about the experience. Flea knew that being in a band was a huge deal to Slovak, and the fact that he chose him, a guy that had had never played bass before, to fill that role in his band made Flea feel wanted and loved, a sentiment he did not find in other areas of his life.

i was backstage at RHCP. Every person was cool as hell. Anthony wouldnt even acknowledge me. Like imagine standing right next to someone saying Hi...hello...reaching ur hand out and they just denied your existence.
