Flea sucks.

I am a big chili peppers fan. Love em to death. But I just read that the new album was leaked to the internet, and here is Flea's response:

if you down load it now off one of these file sharing sites
you will be getting a pale imitation of the record
it will be of the poor sound quality of the technique they used to
get it on there

What the fuck? The chili peppers have songs on both napster and i-tunes, and both of those use file formats that are not as "comprehensive" as a cd recording.

Whatever.

As much as I love the music of the chili peppers, they are corporate whores, charging $39.99 for their "gold" fan club membership(not a member). They seem to make every effort to make money off their fans, including a box set of their new album that comes with a bunch of useless crap.

Flea has forgotten why we make music.
