Professional live photography
I’m pleased to announce that Jackie Butler, a very kind professional photographer, has approved the display of some of her photos taken during the first USA legs of the Stadium Arcadium tour in the gallery. Have a look at them!
There will be more features like this in near future, so stay tuned!

Album inlay photos and more
Writings and album flyers have been moved from Other to Advertisements and the whole section is now called Ads, flyers and album inlay scans. The original content of the Advertisements section is now a subsection, while album flyers have been renamed to Album Promotional Items.
The new sections of this extended subgallery are Photos from RHCP albums’ booklets, Photos from solo albums’ booklets and Photos from other booklets. As far as these booklets are concerned, I scanned pretty much everything I have and borrowed the scans of the only thing I didn’t have; so if there’s anything else you’d like to add, do contact me.
One more image has been added to Album promotional items and one to Writings.

Magazine articles
Ever wondered how would a not-so-famous newspaper interview with young John be like? This text from Deseret News, 23rd May 1990 issue should give you a clue about it. This is the hidden gem mentioned in the introduction to this update.
Here are some more articles:
The Boston Herald, 16th July 2000
Washigton Times, 06th March 2005
And this one was typed out: Guitar World, July 1999. Many thanks to Wei-Wei for doing that.
Amazing live jams
Two items have made their return to Invisible Movement. You can download them here, but you should also read what they are before downloading them.
One of them is the top download of the year 2007 and the proud carrier of the ID number 1 in the download system, so you have to believe that it truly is number one. And yes, that would be the Federation Square jam. For those who have not been following John, RHCP or reading Invisible Movement for that long, on 11th April 2007, Chad Smith gave a drum clinic at the biggest square in centre of Melbourne. As John, Flea and Josh were there as well, it turned into a mad improvisation instead of what it was supposed to be initially. This masterpiece will also be one of the features of Chad’s Eastern Rim DVD, so if you do not have it yet, get it!
The other item would be the end jam from the 2005 ATP Festival. John was rumoured to be one of the performers to participate in it and there he was, with Vincent Gallo on bass, Sean Lennon on drums and Yoko Ono …wait a minute, what is her actual contribution to this? Ahwellwhatevernevermind.
