Never heard this RHCP cover of My Michelle (the music is pretty bad ass) but it sounds like they're making fun of them. But the music stops and Anthony says they're actually not, and that John loves GN'R. Flea was really close with Steven, but the vocals are pretty disrespectful, imo, which is odd considering the whole thing. The little story is pretty cool, though, I always thought Punk Rock Classic was a diss towards GN'R.

Let's remember we are talking about a band that performed wearing nothing but a sock. I don't really think any of it's disrespectful. Anthony Kiedis has no chance of getting anywhere near the range to sing the song. So, he just does his best bad karaoke impression

I never heard that before either and that's a major band covering them.

Makes me wonder how much more of this type of thing we've missed out on.

Very interesting.. who's doing the vocals?
Anyway, if "butchering" the song is where we're at, I'd go with Dillinger Escape Plan owning the shit outta the song

I like "Punk Rock Classic" song on Mothers Milk as it ends with SCOM riff.

Reminds me how everything came full circle. GNR ended up the biggest band in the world again.
