Hi friends! Long time no see.

By now, you’ve surely heard the news regarding Josh Klinghoffer’s departure and John Frusciante’s return.

We’re seeing a lot of mixed emotions: feelings of sadness for Josh, joy for John, confusion for the way the band has chosen to handle this, and on and on and on.

We’re also seeing a lot of hate being spewed at Josh, a man who has been with RHCP for a decade. 

We think he deserves better, and FYRHCP would love to share some positive memories and thoughts.

That’s where you come in. Send us a message and we’ll share your (positive) thoughts with the rest of our little RHCP community here.

What’s your favorite memory of Josh?

What’s your favorite RHCP song with Josh?

Did you see them live while Josh was still in the band? What was that experience like?

Do you enjoy Josh’s other projects? What’s your favorite thing he’s worked on?

Literally anything else as long as it’s POSITIVE.

“John… so, very special person to me, special person to many people. But my experience with John was… one of the most wonderful and easiest people to make music with. We could sit down on the floor, John and I, and I could take out a piece of paper and I would say “okay I wrote these words” and he was like “let me see those words” and he would take the words and he would read them and he’s like “okay!” and then he would start to play something and I would start to sing it and I would say “Can you play something that feels like this?”  and he’d say “okay let me try this” and then we have a song. 

So, never did I meet someone who was so easy to write songs with and really good songs. 

If I called him up and I’m like “I’m very sad today” he’s like “Come over right now, we’re writing a song” so I’d bring my sadness to John and “sit down! get the notebook, start writing your feelings!” and then we have a song…”

Do you miss him?

“I miss him, but I also accept the separate lives…yeah… but I miss him…”

Dark Necessities

Coming on to the light of day we got Many moons that are deep at play so I Keep an eye on the shadow smile To see what it has to say You and I both know Everything must go away What do you say

Spinning Knot that is on my heart is like a Bit of light in a touch of dark you got Sneak attack from the zodiac But I see your fire spark Eat the breeze and go Blow by blow and go away What do you say Yeah

You don’t know my mind You don’t know my kind Dark necessities are part of my design and Tell the world that I’m Falling from the sky Dark necessities are part of my design

Stumble down to the parking lot you got No time for the after thought they’re like Ice Cream for an Astronaut Well that’s me looking for we Turn the corner and Find the world at your command Playing the hand Yeah

You don’t know my mind You don’t know my kind Dark necessities are part of my design

Tell the world that I’m Falling from the sky Dark necessities are part of my design

Do you want this love of mine Darkness helps us all to shine Do you want it, do you want it now

Do you want it all the time But darkness helps us all to shine Do you want it, do you want it now

Pick you up like a paper back with the Track record of a maniac so I Move it in and we unpack It’s the same as yesterday Any way we roll Everything must go away, what do you say Yeah

You don’t know my mind You don’t know my kind Dark necessities are part of my design

Tell the world that I’m Falling from the sky and Dark necessities are part of my design
