Humble John Frusciante Interview

  • This is why I love John Frusciante.. always humble, free from ego, takes a different look at things than what most do and is a killer guitar player. “I’m a musician, I think about music, I think about books.. I don’t get too lost in the way the world sees me. It’s not that important” ~J.F. (2:46-2:58)
    ~(I'm sure he wouldn't want to be depicted as Jesus like in the thumbnail but c'mon.. he's a perfect fit! Couldn't resist. He does have a genuine heart though, they share that. Jesus had a much more vintage Strat though)

    It's so uplifting to watch this after the 1994 VPRO interview.

    • @mrevolver
      @mrevolver  6 років тому +40

      yeah...that is a hard interview to watch. It really is night and day. In the 94 interview, they ask him about Cobains death. I am happy the world did not lose him like we lost Cobain. It's nice to see what somoene is actually doing 24 years later vs. saying "imagine what he would be doing now if he were still alive."

      M. Revolver Right, we can all be disappointed that he's no longer a Pepper. For the sake of his emotional well being, I could care less.

      I envision a future where John will be with the Peppers one last time for the final iteration of the band. I predict it will be the last 5 or 10 years of their career.

      Yeah, it somehow actually sounded like this to me
      "- hey john! wassup? how does it feel to be so famous?
      - well, that's cool but i don't really care you know...
      - but isn't that great to be that famous?
      - as i said, it's quite fun but that's not really something to me...
      - yeah... but you're famous and you've sold so many records with your famous band, how does it feel like?!
      - dude... i don't give a single fuck about that, I play music for the spirits...
      - but john you're a big rock'n'roll star, what's the next step, rock'n'roll hall of fame maybe, don't you think it's cool?!
      - i am about quit the band... again... lol!"
