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

Great starter set for finding the right hoop size
Color: Gold, Size: 40-50-60mm
Bought these for my girlfriend and we both ended up really liking them. I actually liked that this set came with multiple sizes because it let her try different looks before deciding what size she likes most. It was a nice way to test things out before spending more money on real gold earrings. They look good, feel lightweight, and have been a fun way to figure out her preference.

Great value and super cute!
Color: Gold, Size: 30-40-50mm, Color: Gold, Size: 30-40-50mm
These earrings are a yellow gold which I like, and they’ve held up really well the past few days in the shower and with daily wear. These feel high quality and as long as you arent rough with the clasps, these should last you a long time. These are affordable for the quality. I don’t think these will tarnish, and they haven’t lost any shine. The ones in the picture are the smallest size, but I love the others too. They are comfortable to wear and very light weight, whereas others I’ve tried have been heavy or not sturdy enough for daily wear. I would definitely recommend buying these!

Lovely earrings
Color: Silver, Size: 20-30-40mm
These earrings are thicker than what I wanted but they are so lovely and packaged so nicely that I am not going to return them. I will gift them to someone instead.
