1997 Faith No More Australian Interview
Seeing as it’s a Faith No More-fest in Australia at the moment, it seems like a good time to take a trip down memory lane and check out a Recovery interview with Mike Patton and Roddy Bottum when they were last in town, in 1997.

Wasn’t this Bungle interview from around the time Anthony Kiedis got them booted out of some Oz festival or other? I think the main reason was, well, because he’s a twat. (Then again it could have been something to do with the pretty sick halloween show Bungle did dressed as the Chilis, Hillel Slovak ghost included!)

“Many years later, after Faith No More was long gone and the Red Hot Chili Peppers were hugely successful, the release of Mr. Bungle’s “California” was pushed back by Warner Bros. so it wouldn’t come out at the same time as the Red Hot Chili Pepper’s similarly-named “Californication.” Then, when Mr. Bungle were asked to play at some European festivals in the Summer of 1999, Kiedis threatened to cancel his band’s appearance, and Bungle were dropped. That Halloween, Mr. Bungle retaliated by playing a show in Pontiac, Michigan dressed as the Red Hot Chili Peppers, complete with freqent heroin injections and covers of really bad songs. This resulted in Kiedis having them kicked off of some Australian festivals. ”
