"The Empyrean is a story that has no action in the physical world. It all takes place in one persons mind throughout his life. The only other character is someone who does not live in the physical world but is inside it, in the sense that he exists in peoples minds. The mind is the only place that anything can be truly said to exist. The outside world is only known to us as it appears within us by the testament of our senses. The imagination is the most real world that we know because we each know it first hand. Seeing our ideas take form is like being able to see the sun come into being. We have no equivelent to the purity of that in our account of the outside world. The outer world appears to each of us as one thing and it is always also a multitude of others. Inside to outside and outside to inside are neverending. Trying and giving up are a form of breathing."- John http://www.astrotheme.com/portraits/4SS9TJ7WD95s.htm landslide (fleetwood mac cover) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azDmI34O3SI This is from 1997, when he was battling addiction. I think it's heartbreaking, raw, and beautiful. This man has come a long way and seen more than most.

If you get a chance, watch 'Behind The Music/Red Hot Chili Peppers', it's on youtube in like 5 or 6 parts. There is alot on John in there. I've always liked him.It's interesting that Anthony Keidas felt his absence from the group so intensely.. or maybe not since Anthony is a Scorpio, and John is a Pisces. Muscial soulmates perhaps.

It's ok if you don't like RHCP, it would be boring if we all liked the same stuff.I just thought you'd find the story of his earlier life interesting. IP: Logged |
