Red Hot Chili Peppers to play at Apple Store opening?
19 May 2006 :: By Chris Coleman
The word on the street is that 58th or 59th Street near 5th Ave. in New York City will be closing down tonight around 6 p.m. for a “major live band” to play at the opening of Steve Jobs’ latest affront to God.
Curbed seems to think it’ll be U2, which was my first guess. My sources tell me, however, that it’s going to be The Red Hot Chili Peppers. This actually makes a lot of sense, seeing as how Apple held listening parties for the release of Stadium Arcadium in its stores, and gave away iTunes cards for free downloads of “Dani California.”
It’s a total mob scene anytime Apple opens a new store, but it’s a safe bet that this will be many times more insane. I’m going to try to be there, so check back for updates.

I am camping out in the store for the first 24hrs in hopes of winning a Mac Book! (Yes I am crazy) Check out my blog as I will be documenting the entire experience and my inevitable descent into further insanity:

No RHCP. Only Nicholas Cage.
