In the Red Hot Chili Peppers music video, Dani California, What are the bands they pretend to be?

Answer 1

here you go

Elvis (NBC performance - Milton Berle Show)

The Beatles (CBS performance - Ed Sullivan Show. But Chad has shades on, like the drummer from “That Thing You Do”)

Jimi Hendrix (The recreation of his performance of “All Along The Watchtower” including the background colors)

P-Funk (Famous performances of them on stage. Flea is bootsy collins, Anthony is George Clinton, don’t know the others. This is done in tribute because Clinton produced “Freaky Style” in 1985.)

“Glam Rock” tribute. (If you look, everyone is actually someone different. Flea is Bowie, John is a member of New York Dolls, and Anthony is T-Rex. Can’t pin who Chad is.

Sex Pistols (In all their glory, each member takign the personality of the member who played that instrument.)

The Misfits (Taken directly from the performance videos out during the time of their first album)

80’s Glam-Metal Tribute (Chad is actually Tommy Lee from Motley Crew, Anthony and John are Bobby and C.C. of Poison, and I have no clue who Flea is. I almost want to say Eddie Van Halen since he’s got the Flying V guitar.)

Nirvana (MTV Unplugged performance. Anothony is obviously Kurt Cobain, and Flea is Krist Novocelic. But while you can’t see Chad drumming, John is supposed to represent the long-haired Dave Grohl from the song “Jesus Don’t Want Me For A Sunbeam”)

Then last, Red Hot Chili Peppers
