Ottawa reviews
Yeah, believe it or not, there are more reviews of the Ottawa show than the Montreal one. On that note, if anyone has a Montreal show review in French and is willing to translate it…that would be more than welcome.

Things kicked off with bassist Flea, guitarist John Frusciante and drummer Chad Smith all trading licks with a frenetic funk jam before singer Anthony Kiedis hopped onstage as if he were a boxer to open the set with Can’t Stop and their recent single Dani California to get most of the 13,000 attending up on their feet.

The festive getups were justified with the first notes of what turned out to be an intensely funky faceoff between bassist Flea and guitarist John Frusciante. For a band with dozens of hit songs to choose from, the jammed-out prelude was an unexpected beginning, a nice lead-in that resonated through the stadium and gave an extra couple of minutes for those who were still enjoying their beverages in the concourse to get to their seats.
