The Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame bassist is just like us!
After all, who among us hasn’t found themself in sudden and urgent need of a bathroom on at least one occasion? My personal favorite such story happened when I was out on a boat in the middle of a lake. It hurts just remembering.
As for Flea, his quick trip to Target for some personal grooming items was rudely interrupted.
More rock star glamour: walked to Target to get nail clippers and nose hair trimmer. Employees were right on me asking for selfies and telling me they love me. Two minutes later I get hit with a major urge to take a shit. They tell me bathroom is downstairs, I go there but ten people in line, Iβm about to soil my trousers. I go to employees and plead, please can I use employees bathroom they say no employees only. I run across the street to some cafe and ask to use bathroom (on the way there a guy waiting outside tells me Iβm an asshole for not stopping to take a selfie with him) the cafe lady threatens to call security on me for politely asking for bathroom. I made it by the skin of my teeth to a restaurant a few blocks away. Back to hotel to practice trumpet.
Such an epic story can only be followed up with brilliant replies.
Some punk rock royalty weighs in*.
And finally, this reply king.
Do you have a hilarious “I need a bathroom NOW” situation? Share in the comments, but please keep it cleaner than a public bathroom.
