Flea: On October 16th 1962, a boy was born in Melbourne, Australia. A boy that we know as Michael Peter Balzary or Flea. His parents divorced and his mother remarried in 1967 to a jazz musician named Walter Urban Jnr. In the same year he moved with his mom, stepdad and sister Karen to N.Y. His stepdad was a big influence on him, he often visited the weekly jam sessions with his stepfather. In 1972 he moved to L.A. In High School Flea was often teased both because of his funny part Australian part New York accent and his "weird" musical taste. Most of the kids in his age were in to disco and dancemusic, Flea prefered Dizzy Gillesibie, Miles Davis and Ornette Coleman. At this time Flea had started to play the trumpet, he were really talented and practised a lot. He played with the L.A. junior philharmonic and with the school orchestra and was a favorite of the teachers. Chad: Chad Smith was born on October 25th, 1962 in St Paul, Minnesota. According to an interview with Chad and Dave from 1997 everybody in his family are "musical genius". Well, Chad started to play the drums at an quite early age. He was about eight years old when he took his first lesson. One of his first musical experience was an LP with an instrumental song called "I?m a grubworm". Chad and his brother used to listen to it on maximum speed on their stereo, and about halfway through the song a silly voice says "I?m a grubworm". They listened to this part again and again and laughed hysterical for hours. In 1988-89 RHCP were searching for a drummer since Jack Irons had left the group. About 30 drummers were tested out but none of them were good enough. Finally Chad, who actually had been dancing on RHCP shows at some occations, gave it a try and he fit perfectly. He was also one of the loudest drummers the Chilis had ever heard... "I could play quiet, but I'm more of the bashing type," he'd admit. According to Kiedis he was an "stabilising influence", and he still is more than 10 years later... | |||||||||||||||||
