Flea, the iconic bassist and co-founder, alongside Anthony Kiedis, of the immortal Red Hot Chili Peppers finally tells his fascinating origin story, complete with all the dizzying highs and the gutter lows you’d expect from an LA street rat turned world-famous rock star.

Michael Peter Balzary was born in Melbourne, Australia, on October 16, 1962. His more famous stage name, Flea, and his wild ride as the renowned bass player for the Red Hot Chili Peppers was in a far and distant future. Little Michael from Oz moved with his very conservative, very normal family to Westchester, New York, where life as he knew it was soon turned upside down. His parents split up and he and his sister moved into the home of his mother's free-wheeling, jazz musician boyfriend - trading in rules, stability, and barbecues for bohemian values, wildness, and Sunday afternoon jazz parties where booze, weed, and music flowed in equal measure. There began Michael's life-long journey to channel all the frustration, loneliness, love, and joy he felt into incredible rhythm.

When Michael's family moved to Los Angeles in 1972, his home situation was rockier than ever. He sought out a sense of belonging elsewhere, spending most of his days partying, playing basketball, and committing petty crimes. At Fairfax High School, he met another social outcast, Anthony Kiedis, who quickly became his soul brother, the yin to his yang, his partner in mischief. Michael joined some bands, fell in love with performing, and honed his skills. But it wasn't until the night when Anthony, excited after catching a Grandmaster Flash concert, suggested they start their own band that he is handed the magic key to the cosmic kingdom.

Acid for the Children is as raw, entertaining and wildly unpredictable as its author. It's both a tenderly evocative coming of age story and a raucous love letter to the power of music and creativity

Stylish, comfortable, breathable, and fast drying! Perfect for active wear!
Color: Black, Size: 13-14 Years, Color: Black, Size: 13-14 Years
This tennis dress/set is perfect for my daughter. She can use it for tennis, golf, or just as an addition to her summer wardrobe. It fits true to size (though it does run a bit long), and it looks great on. The fabric is very soft and stretchy (a polyester and spandex blend). It’s also very breathable and quick drying, and I love that it’s machine washable. I also like that the shorts are not sewn in (instead it’s a two piece outfit). The shorts also have pockets large enough to fit tennis balls on both hips. The neckline is high and modest, and the skirt is loose and flowy. The dress and shorts are well made and durable too. Because it’s so lightweight, it’s great to wear even in hot and humid weather. The pullover design makes it easy to put on and take off. This dress is a great addition to any active girl’s wardrobe, and it’s a great value too. And it’s available in sizes from 7/8 to 13/14 and several different colors too!

Shorts are separate
Color: Pink, Size: 11-12 Years
This athletic dress is really cute and good quality. It fits true to size. I actually sized up because sometimes athletic dresses run more form fitting, but this one isn’t tight at all. The shorts are separate (I originally thought they were built in), and they do have a pocket, which is a nice bonus. The price is fair for what you get. There’s plenty of room for my daughter to grow into it and hopefully wear it for a few years. Overall, it’s comfortable and a great find.
