This band is definitely one of those you either love or hate... I liked them during a certain period, mainly the Blood Sugar Sex Magic period... then I liked a few songs here and there after that.
They are a touch of side show vaudeville, goofy kid act and punk.... like I said not for everyone... the live stuff is typical of a band of their nature... it seemed fine to me, except I didn't like the first song. The song Flea sang was so tongue in check it was funny!
