American hard rock icons Red Hot Chili Peppers will be bringing their fiery spirit to Manchester this week, with their huge stadium gig at the Emirates Old Trafford cricket ground. The LA funk rock pioneers head to the city amid their ongoing world tour.
Here off the back of their first studio album in over six years, Unlimited Love, we can expect some of the newies as well as their stone cold classics like Californication and Give it Away among the anticipated setlist. The band are known for their legendary rock 'n' roll stage antics - although their penchant for performing without much in the way of clothing was retired in the early noughties.
Band members may have come and gone amid RHCP's 40-year music career, but the inimitable presence of Anthony Kiedis as frontman and Flea as bassist remain steadfastly front of stage. Returning too is original guitarist John Frusciante on the new tour alongside long-standing drummer Chad Smith.
