Nice news for fans from UK and Denmark
Seems like there will be many chances for fans in some countries to catch John in action these days…read on, read on. For UK people: The music channel Q is having a Red Hot Chili Peppers special this weekend. The Q magazine has the band on its front cover and there’s a huge article.

The band will also be doing a live show on Virgin radio sometime soon, but the date isn’t confirmed yet (thanks to Amina for the news). For Danish people: Official RHCP fanclub will be giving away 25 pairs…

John has conjuctivitis; RHCP pulled out of tonight’s show
Red Hot Chili Peppers have withdrawn from today’s filming of the CDUSA show in Hollywood in the last minute, since John couldn’t play due to heavy conjuctivitis. “It was so last minute that the band turned up with all their gear and were starting to set it up when the news about John’s eye problems came through. Instead of performing the other three members stuck around for an interview,” an insider said. The webmaster and the I-M.net board members wish John to get well soon.

A fresh video interview
This surfaced earlier today somehow, even before the official RHCP site actually announced it…it’s an interview with the band where they’re talking about Dani California…song, not the video clip.

If you want to watch the streaming version of the video, go to this page and select your preferences. If you’re having problems with streams, if they’re banned on your school or office computer, if your internet connection is an excuse for an internet connection; or if you use the stone-age-based 14.4/28.8/22.6 Kbps dial up…or, if you simply want to save…

New (old) interview clip, screencaps and more…
This time the weekend update is late again. Oh well, you’ll agree that life is upredictable. There have been quite a few updates in the gallery, in the screencaps subsection: Road Trippin screencaps have been redone, I am sorry that they were broken for a couple of days. Universally Speaking screencaps have been redone as well. Now there’s actually more than one. Screencaps from making of 6 different RHCP videos are also there. A famous interview clip from 2001 has been added to the site, due to numerous requests for me to put it up if I have it. The German TV station Viva II no longer exists but, during…
