I think RHCP is a great band and well deserving of the Rock and Roll HOF. Like many bands who have been around for 20+ years their recent output has not touched their older stuff. That being said the band is awesome!

Like I've said before, never have a had two extreme emotions for a band... when in HS, I loved them... then around the time of Mother's Milk, they started turning into something I didn't like... from the 90's to now, I absolutely can stand them...

That said, props to them... A lot of people obviously do and I guess they deserve their spot in the HoF

I think it’s become hip among the music press to take potshots at them, which is a shame. Their early period is fan-frickin-tastic, and I honestly don’t think their late career output is bad, it’s just not nearly as good as their early stuff. But no one rags on the Stones because Voodoo Longue isn’t Beggar’s Banquet.

Really, one of the best bands at incorporating funk into rock. Flea is an amazing bassist as well, which helps. Fun band and I never get tired of Mother’s Milk.
