Red Hot Chili Peppers Offer Thrills

This show had a special Wisconsin connection. Sitting on stage right was the drummer Chad Smith’s mother, brother, nephew and niece. His mother was visiting from Detroit and his brother lives in Wauwatosa. Flea started the show by sitting next to them as the band started their set. At the end of the concert Chad recognized his mother on mic. Her smile was captured on the jumbo video screens. Clearly a special moment for Chad, his mom and the fans. Photo by Erol Reyal©
