Hello
Mexico City, where Tina Modotti was sexy and stunningly talented. And Bold ....We had a fucked day of travel today, got up at 5 am and flew for 12 hours from Sao Paulo on Aero Mexico. Everyone is tired but I'm sure Chad will go out and party all night anyway. Playing in Argentina was amazing, one of the greatest crowds I ever have felt. I truly felt an incredible amount of love from those people, they even sang along with the guitar melody of the bridge of 'Blood Sugar Sex Magic'. I feel Argentina in my blood. We then went on to Brazil, where some boys approached me in the park and I had the feeling they were gonna attempt to fuck with me in some way, when a neighborly member of the Chili Pepper fan club approached and diffused the situation in a suave and Portuguese way. I'll tell ya one thing, they sure like to kiss in Brazil. I must have kissed a thousand people... twice each. Now we are in La Ciudad de Mejico the home of our beloved road manager Louis Mathieu, whose family will be coming to the show tomorrow. I understand his dad is a great golfer. John and I and Chris Warren our affable drum technician have formed the Gentlemen's film club, a manly organization that meets nightly to watch arty films with subtitles. This is a very exclusive club catering to all fans of Porky's 3. that's all I have to say to you right now.
