The Music Wiki's 2012 Concert Series
First show: Red Hot Chili Peppers - I'm With You Tour
If you've never seen the Red Hot Chili Peppers live, this is your lucky year. Not only is the band's current I'm With You World Tour geographically expansive, they have been continuously rescheduling and adding new stops, mostly because Anthony Kiedis required foot surgery earlier this year. We hope he feels better, but his injury has given many people a new opportunity to jump on some tickets!
Ok, so maybe the show closest to you is already sold out, but if you can find a ticket, somehow, some way, it's totally worth the extra dough. Trust me on this one, I went to the Stadium Arcadium tour in 2006. Flea's funky bass lines melted the skin off my ears. In a good way.
Check out the tour dates below, get your tickets, and watch the video at the bottom to get an idea of what the music will be like on this tour. Rock on, friends!
