From the first song to the last, they absolutely nailed it. The energy in the room was amazing — you could tell they weren’t just playing songs, they were putting on a proper show. The vocals were spot on and the setlist was perfect for the crowd. Every song had people singing along, dancing, or filming because it was just that good 🤘🎸 🥁" Based in Birmingham, England (66 miles from Abergavenny) 18th March 2026 Diane Corkin Photo of Red Hot Chili Peppers Experience Red Hot Chili Peppers Experience "These guys really do sound and look like the real thing, not to be missed."
