 Manon
St.John Smith

beautiful daughter who was born on March 3rd 1997.
Melbourne
Australia. Flea's Birthpace.
Meters
New Orleans R&B and jazzband formed in 1969 by Art Neville (vocals
and piano), Leo Nocentelli (guitar) and Joseph "Zigaboo" Modeliste
(drums). One of the bands many jazz inspirations. The Chili Peppers
covered the Meters song Africa and renamed it to Hollywood for
the Freaky Styley album in 1985.
Mike
Patton
 Born
January 27th, 1968 in Eureka, California. His first Band in Mr
Bungle. And also the frontman for Faith No More, and Fantomas.
Recently with a band called Tomahawk. The downside with the Chili
Peppers is, their connection is not very good. Mike use to rip
off Anthony's performance and style. And I think almost everyone
who knew the band since their early years would have notice that.
Find out more about the clash in our forum. Despite all the incidents,
Mike Patton is one of the greatest vocalist the world ever have.
Mike
Watt
Singer and bassist who's a great friend of the Chili Peppers.
BSSM was dedicated to him. He started his career in the early
eighties with the punkband "Minutemen" and had released a few
albums with the band "Fire house" and a couple of solos more recently.
He has played with Porno for Pyros as a bassist.
Milk
Rich with Calcium to make your bones stronger, and with added
vitamins to make your brain develops better :) - Flea doesn't
drink Milk, so if he ever go to your home , take this fair warning,
Never give him any food/drinks with milk in it - or he'll freak
out! :D
Milla
Jovovich
 A
former Supermodel. Ex-Wife of wellknown French director, Luc Besson.
Milla Natasha Jovovich was born in Kiev, Ukraine, on December
17, 1975. She began acting at the age of 9, and modeling at 11.
She released her first movie in 1988, entitled Two Moon Junction,
followed by The Night Train to Kathmandu. She displayed maturity
and talent beyond her years, and continued her acting career with
the release of Return to Blue Lagoon in 1991, and Kuffs and Chaplin
in 1992. Her biggest screen appearance was Return to Blue Lagoon,
Fifth Element (with Bruce Willis), and Resident Evil the Movie
(2002).

MOM
Music of our Mother Ocean. A surfriders aid foundation that has
released three albums to save the seas of the world. The Chili
Peppers contributed with the song How Strong to the latest release
MOM3.
Mother's
Milk
 4th
album, released in 1989. After the tragic death of Hillel Slovak,
Jack Irons left the Band. Anthony and Flea, with two new forces,
Frusciante and Smith, put the world on fire, and their first big
success. " Motherīs milk is a life giving, nurturing, intoxicating,
good natured,health building, loving, comforming, warm, soothing
substance. When you drink it it makes you grow up strong and healthy.
It wards off infection and disease. And itīs honest. Itīs pure
and wholesome, and thatīs what we like to think our music represents
..." Anthony on the Album's title ...
Trivia : Ione Skye IS NOT the model of MM cover. It's Dawn
Alaine.
N
Niandra
Lades and Usually Just a T-shirt
 Released
in 1994. John Frusciante's 1st album from his solo project. Frusciante
has emerged from the ashes of the Red Hot Chili Peppers with an
introspective look into his decaying world. Many would never understand
John's style in music. But many have found the meanings of his
expressions in this album. On this album you can clearly see the
inspiration he has taken from Captain Beefheart and Frank Zappa.
The album was dedicated to Clara
Balzary (flea's daughter).
NIKE
Wellknown brand in the Sport Industry. I personally don't know
anyone who doesn't know/never heard the name Nike. The Chili Peppers
and Andre Agassi once did a commercial for TV together back in
1991, called "Rock īnī Roll and Tennis".
Nina
Hagen
 German
Punk Lady of the 80s. Once had a relationship with Anthony Kiedis.
In the year 1983 the RHCP joined german singer NINA HAGEN in the
studio to perform WHAT IT IS? with her. It came out on her album
FEARLESS. You can hear FLEA on BASS and HILLEL on guitar there.
There also exists a german version of the
song called WAS ES IST?. On this mix the background vocals were
dropped.
(thanks to Mark/High Water Sun Bridge)

One
Hot Minute
 Sixth
Chili Peppers album. Released in 1995 with Dave
Navarro as Guitarist. The Black Days of Chili Peppers as Anthony
recalls. He didn't like the album. And so John. But I personally
think it was a great album. With funny and funky Aeroplane, myterious
Warped, groovy Walkabout, and incredible Pea.
Otherside
3rd single from the album Californication.
The video Clip was wonderfully directed by Valerie Ferris and
Jonathon Dayton. Couple who's been helping the Chili Peppers with
most of their great videos. Was a massive hit.

Pearl
Jam
 One
The Best Grunge Band ever born. Formed in Seattle in 1990 by Eddie
Vedder (vocalist), Stone Gossard (guitar), Mike McGready (guitar),
Jeff Ament (bass) and Dave Crusen who later was replaced by Jack
Irons. Jack Irons was the bands drummer on Vitalogy and No
Code but quit in 1997. The Chili Peppers and Pearl Jam go back
a long time and share the same visions. They've played together
on festivals etc. The Chili Peppers have greatly influenced Pearl
Jam. Pearl Jam and the Red Hot Chili Peppers stand alone as the
two greatest live bands of today, they wish to some time in the
future go on an extensive tour together.
Current Formation : Stone Gossard (guitar), Mike McCready (guitar),
Matt Cameron (Drummer), Eddie Vedder (Vocalist), and Jeff Ament
(Bass).
Their last album is Riot Act.
