--John Frusciante(guitar Red Hot Chili Peppers) play "Blues Sunday"(live in Vienna, 2006): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivPUohy2i0c

He is a heroin addict, so I suppose we should grant him the permission to mis-name a Doors song. As we all know, it is 'Blue Sunday'.

There are many young people reading this who think that drugs are needed in order to become a rockstar....well, they are correct! No one wants to listen to a straight edge sober person doing Rock.

Frusciante's been sober for over a decade now and has released his best work since then. i think that cover of Blue Sunday is quite nice. was hoping for a guitar solo but that didn't happen.
