Press reactions on the most recent RHCP news and a playlist
There’s nothing officially said by the rest of the RHCP after Chad Smith told Billboard they’re going back to their usual jamming in October last Friday. However, this was apparently distributed to all news agencies, as media is totally mad about it and us who get news alerts and clippings can only curse the day we were born.
So, for all of you, here’s a compilation of these news items. I think it’s interesting to see how each site worded it, and some of them have included some videos and photos that you can enjoy and rewind your memories; while some others still use agency photos from the last century.
