John is on the cover of the biggest Serbian newspaper today.

It was quite unexpected to see John at the front page of Blic today, especially with the news that went with it. Here’s a photo of the front page and a (horrible) English translation of the article. Later today I will properly and professionally translate the whole article, scan the paper version and look if any other newspaper of web service has more news on this; as I have to hurry now. Please, everyone, don’t panic. Since the next shows are being played, he’s obviously OK.

Concert shorter due to health problem of the guitarist
Immediately after Red Hot Chili Peppers’ concert in Indjija people started speculating as to why the concert lasted an hour and twenty minutes only. According to previous announcements the audience expected much longer concert. One of the concert organizers claims that the concert was shorter than it should have been because one of the Peppers, guitar man John Frusciante, was physically unable to play longer.
‘We were informed to provide an oxygen bottle in the back stage since their guitar man was not feeling well. In spite of that fact the Peppers made an effort to came and perform in Serbia’, Bojan Boskovic, ‘Exit’ general manager says for ‘Blic’.
