when i woke up this morning i was was confronted with the news that our record has been leaked to
the internet it does not come out til may 9 but now it has leaked and not that i know alot about this kind of thing but i guess now it is possible to down load it for free if you want
well that's not very nice if you down load it now off one of these file sharing sites you will be getting a pale imitation of the record it will be of the poor sound quality of the technique they used to
get it on there and that will break my heart it will break john frusciante's heart it will break anthony kiedis's heart and it will break the heart of chad smith yes, we worked for a year and a half to make the epic record of our
lives and it is sad to me for the business reasons of course i think we are selling something really cool and we put all we had
into it, 28 songs, 2 hours of the best that we can offer and i think it is a fair deal for everyone and for people to just steal a poor sound quality version of it for free
because some asshole stole it and put it on the internet is sad to me but, equitable business reasons aside the thing that really bums me out is we worked so hard, and so thoughtfully, all of us, for so long
to make this record sound as warm and full from top to bottom
as was possible we spent day and night for a year making sure every little sound was
just right that they were all put together in the most beautiful way we could
we did not leave a stone unturned in doing that work i can not put in words how much this record, stadium arcadium, means
to us how sacred the sound of it is to us and how many sleepless nights and hardworking days we all had
thinking about how to make it be the best sounding thing we could
and now, for someone to take it and put it out there with this poor
sound quality it is a painful pill for us to swallow let me tell you this bums all of us out and i know that, as sensitive as john frusciante is about sound
the idea of anyone getting and he

the idea of anyone getting and hearing this thing that way will devastate him for people to not hear the work the way we meant it to be will really hurt him deep inside and all of us will hurt
yes, it is stealing from us, and that is lame everyone has to live with their own conscience on that one let it be your guide but to take a version that has been defiled sound wise a version in which some idiot has taken our year and a half of soul
baring work and pissed all over it that will break our hearts
sincerely,
flea

Why does he keep saying the thing about "a year and a half"? As if you'd be quite happy to steal something that only took a year to make, but come on people, this was a year and a half (that's 18 months), I mean, that's too much isn't it, to take for free. Think, a year.... and a half.

I dunno. Presumably the audiophile snob also wants to bar people from taping the CD when they buy it, so they can listen to it on their old car stereo?

I quite like the new single.
I bet the rest of the band cringed when they read Flea's little emo rant. Sounds a bit funny from him, the violent goon from the Big Lebowski, as I knew him before. :D

do you think so? isn't a little naive to think your record won't get leaked?
I think most bands see the premature ejaculation of their work on the internet, as annoying, but nothing more than that.

Flea isn't as stupid as you'd think from reading the open letter above.
For some reason, his "sadness" about the leaking of the record has been picked up by the media. As a result, it has equalled an awful lot of free advertising for the new release.
Of course, it could just be he never intended that and that the press are merely picking up on it because it's so novel for a musician to make a big hoo-ha about what is actually very common and generally seen as annoying, rather than akin to raping children as he seems to think.
As earthleakage says, the Chilis haven't exactly been "model citizens" themselves over the years. It seems a bit rich to slate people DLing an album before it's out considering some of the things they've done.

"because some asshole stole it and put it on the internet" - someone who worked in the studio ? why does Flea/do Peppers work with assholes then ? don't work with assholes, you won't get robbed.
