Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea is a man of many talents. Making his entrance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon last night, he proceeded to walk about on his hands for a bit before sitting down to discuss Honora, his new jazz-leaning solo album. This sees playing not only bass guitar but also trumpet.
Before getting to all that, though, Flea had to address his obvious head injury, which was covered by a plaster. After initially claiming that he’d suffered it while seeing off a gang of hoodlums who were robbing old ladies, he admitted that it was the result of a “bizarre peeing accident” – after going to the toilet during a radio recording session, he was rushing back to the studio and ran straight into a glass door. Ouch.
