The Red Hot Chili Peppers 2013/2014 Tour was a concert tour by Red Hot Chili Peppers. The tour followed the band's almost two-year-long I'm with You World Tour which ended in April 2013. The tour featured many festival performances and included the band's first ever shows in Alaska, Paraguay, the Philippines and Puerto Rico. The band also performed in New York City for the first time since 2003 and gave a controversial performance during the halftime show of Super Bowl XLVIII, which was seen by a record-breaking 115.3 million viewers world-wide. During the tour, the band started work on their eleventh studio album in February 2014. Recording was expected to begin in late 2014. ==Background== In May, the band gave a special performance for Dalai Lama at the Dalai Lama Environmental Summit. The tour will also feature the band's very first shows in Alaska, where they had previously attempted to perform four times on the ''One Hot Minute Tour'' in 1997 however were forced to cancel due to various problems including injuries, scheduling conflicts and drug problems. Tickets for the Alaska show were in such high demand, selling out in three hours which prompted the band to schedule another show there. They will also make their first trip since September 2011 to Brazil and will perform their first ever show in Paraguay. Prior to their two Alaskan dates, the band performed a private birthday party at the million dollar mansion of Lululemon founder Chip Wilson in Vancouver.〔http://globalnews.ca/news/761326/red-hot-chili-peppers-play-private-show-at-lululemon-founder-chip-wilsons-vancouver-home/〕 The band performed a special benefit concert in October for Flea's Silverlake Conservatory of Music which was hosted by Flea and Kiedis and featured a special headlining performance by Neil Young. A silent auction was held and also featured donations from Marc Jacobs, Tony Hawk, Pearl Jam, Gucci and others.〔http://www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/music/red-hot-chili-peppers-neil-young-to-perform-at-charity-event-oct-30-in-silverlake-calif/2013/10/04/f24cde72-2cf9-11e3-b141-298f46539716_story.html〕 The band also announced their very first show ever in Puerto Rico which took place on April 6, 2014.〔http://redhotchilipeppers.com/news/447-new-show-san-juan-puerto-rico-april-2014〕 The band was one of the main headliners at the 2014 Isle of Wight Festival on June 14, 2014. This was the band's only UK and Ireland appearance in 2014 and will mark the band's first UK festival since 2007.〔http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/music/music-festivals/10608085/Red-Hot-Chili-Peppers-to-headline-Isle-of-Wight-Festival-2014.html〕 The band said of performing at the legendary festival "To headline the Isle of Wight Festival is a once in a lifetime opportunity, following in the footsteps of Jimi Hendrix and The Doors. When we were offered the slot, we jumped at the chance. We intend to make it really special."〔http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/music/music-festivals/10608085/Red-Hot-Chili-Peppers-to-headline-Isle-of-Wight-Festival-2014.html〕 The band gave a surprise unannounced performance on the May 22, 2014 episode of ''The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon''. Chad Smith and actor Will Ferrell were competing in a drum-off and were joined by Kiedis, Flea and Klinghoffer for a performance of "Don't Fear the Reaper" with Ferrell playing cowbell. The Chili Peppers were later joined by The Roots for a performance of Parliament Funkadelic's "Standing on the Verge of Getting it On" and "Give it Away". The final show on the tour at the Isle of Wight festival was cut short by four songs due the band taking the stage 15 minutes late and local curfew laws. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Red Hot Chili Peppers 2013–2014 Tour」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
