The Resume

Why he might be annoying:

    He clashed with the other band members, especially lead singer Anthony Kiedis, both personally and musically.
    Kiedis said his stint in the band was doomed because he did not have ‘a punk rock pedigree.’
    He said about being omitted when RHCP were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, ‘I’m being dishonored and it sucks.’

Why he might not be annoying:

    Part of the reason he clashed with the rest of the band was that he was the only member not doing drugs.
    In his autobiography, Kiedis wrote, ‘God bless Jack, he did keep the band afloat for a year, and if he hadn’t, the years to follow probably wouldn’t have.’
    Producer Andy Gill noted about his influence, ‘Jack actually turned them on to Funkadelic.’
