The Red Hot Chili Peppers toured with Nirvana in 1991. Bassist Flea recalled the tour during a recent appearance on The Howard Stern Show, saying: “I remember just feeling like, you know, they’re good bands, but Nirvana, they were really carrying a heavy magic with them, just this feeling like they are a powerful entity to be respected.”
