The Chili Peppers have a real strict two-week on/two-week off policy - aside from me, everybody has families.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I hate bell peppers, which is annoying because they technically have my name all over them.
In the Chili Peppers I'm a part of that world in a pretty big world and that's just the way it is.
I live for my children, so my number one rule is I won't go away from home for more than two weeks.
I met the guys through a friend of a friend, and their former drummer had quit. I wasn't too familiar with the Chili Peppers before that, so I joined at the end of 88' and we finished recording Mother's Milk at the end of 89', next thing I know I'm in Spin with a sock.
The problem with all-or-nothing thinking is that it stops people even taking the first steps. The thought of never having pepperoni pizza again somehow turns into an excuse to keep ordering it every week.
We all need to start making some changes to how our families eat. Now, everyone loves a good Sunday dinner. Me included. And there's nothing wrong with that. The problem is when we eat Sunday dinner Monday through Saturday.
I have my kids every Friday through Monday, and I don't leave them the whole time I have them.
I have family obligations and all that stuff. I get my kids six weeks in the summer, which is a real intense period of time. I'm with them every minute of the day.
I was allowed to meet my family every two weeks for a half hour.
People with chile peppers on their chef pants shouldn't be allowed in the kitchen.
