This totally cracked me up watching the Rock am Ring 2004 performance. The admiration is real!

I’ve always felt like The Empyrean has such a distinct visual atmosphere — dark, spacious, surreal, but with these flashes of light running through it.

I’m an artist, and I recently painted my own interpretation of the album. I wanted to capture the feeling the record gives me rather than recreate the cover directly.
I’d love to hear how other Frusciante fans visualize The Empyrean. If you had to turn the album into a painting, what would it look like?

And what’s your favourite track from the album?

Awesome pictures! From the Californication tour, they played songs like Around the World, Suck My Kiss, Skinny Sweaty Man, I Like Dirt, Soul to Squeeze, and many others. Unfortunately, there are no recordings of this show available, but the pictures alone are great!

The RHCP Live Archive added this show today, July 17, 2000. It's a banger. Sound is a little distorted at times, but otherwise pretty good. The bands performance is top notch.

It also has a few "oddities":
- Johns guitar cuts out just as they're going into the Around the World bass solo, Flea extends the solo. They manage to recover really well, almost sounds planned.

- Flea doesn't sing Pea, instead does Pot Sharing Tots

- John plays through the UTB intro twice

does the original photo of the band members that is warped into a circle on the album cover exist?

Been a lazy POS drummer figured it was time to break the cans back out !
