Red Hot Chili Peppers have rolled out their 2023 global tour dates in support of the two new albums — Unlimited Love and Return Of The Dream Canteen. The North American run kicks off in Vancouver at BC Place on March 29th with the final date on this side of the Atlantic set for May 25th at Houston's Minute Maid Park. The band will be on the road on Europe throughout June and July.
Supporting the Chili Peppers at assorted gigs will be such heavyweights as Iggy Pop, the Strokes, the Roots, St. Vincent, Thundercat, the Mars Volta, and City and Colour.
No matter how exotic the locale, bassist Flea told us not long ago that the band approaches each show the same way: “Y'know, with gigs, it's always the same for me — some are fun, some aren't fun, but that doesn't really matter. Actually, serving the mighty tradition of performing for people is just something that I and we as a band care about deeply. So, no matter what the scene is, we're just in to go out there and tap in the source and reach into the most hardcore depths of who we are, to get what we can.”
