Here’s the setlist for the last night’s RHCP performance at the famous Roskilde festival in Denmark, as posted by deloused on the official BBS. It would be really nice if someone could find out what John sang and dig out an audio and, if possibly, video of it

Intro
Can’t Stop
Dani California
Charlie
Havana Affair
Parallel Universe
Uknown(John)
Snow ((Hey Oh))
Right On Time
She’s Only 18
Californication
What Is Soul?
By the Way

ENCORE
Drums solo
Flea played the trumpet
C’mon Girl
Give It Away
End jam

The show has just ended and the nice people of OHG have graced us with the setlist once again. And, well, there’s a new solo by John, Take It As It Comes, by The Doors. Random? No, it’s perfectly logical.

On 07th December 2006, in Vienna, John sang The Doors’ Blue Sunday, to pay tribute to the late Jim Morrison one day before his birthday. He sang it only once more, five days later and we never heard it again.

The day Jim died was 03rd July. However, he died in Paris, so paying a tribute to him in Chorzow wouldn’t make as much sense as doing it tonight, in the city where the famous singer spent his last days. Now, why this song and not Blue Sunday again? Well, that’s one thing I wouldn’t know, sorry.

So….mystery solved, here’s the setlist.

Chris Rock introduces Red Hot Chili Peppers
Set: ‘Can’t Stop’/'Dani California’/'So Much I’/'By The Way’

They will probably play at around 17:30 GMT, but I heard that from people who were most likely counting how much time it will take for each artist to perform, so do not rely on that information.

All the performers and setlists are here. As the most of the world will be showing Live Earth on TV, as a direct broadcast, check your local TV channels for broadcasting times.

On 28th June 2007, Dutch channel 3 has shown a documentary made by Bram van Splunteren who also made the legendary documentary about John, and who did a lot of interviews and visits with the Peppers in their early years. It’s a great thing to watch, so here you go:
