Chili Peppers are Red Hot

When I first heard that the Chili Peppers new record was going to be a double disc, one of my first thoughts is that the guys - who've now been around 20 years or so - are looking toward their place in rock history on this one. There's no question they are one of the biggest "modern" rock bands of all-time, but the Peppers seem to quietly angling for their place in that little museum in Cleveland.

Now they can add a #1 record to their resume. The Peppers have topped the US charts for the first time with "Stadium Arcadium" - which sold more than 440,000 copies to claim the top spot. The record has also climbed to #1 in Britain, Canada, Germany and France.

Not bad for some guys who at one time could only afford to wear socks on stage.
