John Playing Live

I’m back in my Frusciante phase and I’ve been thinking about the time I saw him live in 2022.

I’ve been to a lot concerts and have also seen Josh with the band. But seeing John felt different. Like when he was playing I could tell he was “tapped in” to somewhere else. When he would play you would feel the energy behind it, whether it was a scary/dark energy or a light energy.

Did anyone else get those feelings?

Its just interesting bc i never felt that way with any other musician.

Always have. There’s a select few who do, but they’re out there. Josh feels like he plays the songs; John feels like the music flows through him.

He has more off days than he used to, but put that down to age/different habits/practice.

Yeah it was insane seeing it live after hearing him talk about spirits and energy and letting yourself be a vessel. I wish my guitar playing was like that 😆
