Last night: the Red Hot Chili Peppers at Minute Maid Park. ChiliPeppers MinuteMaidParks
The Red Hot Chili Peppers delivered the hits during their Global Stadium Tour stop at Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas on May 25, 2023.I was 12 years old when I received one of the best birthday presents ever: the iconic, bright yellow Sony Walkman"Sports" edition with Mega Bass. I carried that thing with me everywhere.... on the school bus, to the park, and even took it with me on those hot summer trips to AstroWorld.
Bass virtuoso Thundercat was not afraid to get weird during his set opening for the Red Hot Chili Peppers at Minute Maid Park.The sun was still high in the sky when Thundercat took to the stage at 6:30pm. His set began with a cacophony of avant-garde acid jazz, which was both interesting and jarring to the early crowd that was still walking though security.
The Strokes were next, and although the sun had finally started to creep behind the skyline, it was still very much light out."Good evening, or should I say good afternoon" joked lead singer Julian Casablancas. Dressed in a cowboy boots, dark shades, a shirt that looked like the Texas flag, and a single glove on his right hand, Casablancas is the epitome of a rock star.
Chili Peppers' frontman Anthony Kiedis didn't let a foot injury slow him down during his set at Minute Maid Park.By this time, the stadium was jam packed with fans ready to see RHCP. It was absolutely chaotic as lines for the restroom, beer, merch, and food snaked way back and around the venue. Then, at 5 minutes til 9pm, the lights dimmed for the headliner.
The real star of the show was guitarist John Frusciante, who returned to the band in 2019 after a long hiatus. He smiled wide towards the crowd as he provided solos and riffs to the classic tracks, and introduced us to new riffs on"Aquatic Mouth Dance" and"Black Summer" from the new Unlimited Love album.
The stage setting for the Chili Peppers was super interesting and high tech. The LED screen that displayed their backgrounds extended all the way up and over the band's head, and also curved down in front of the band and into the photo pit.
