Tour Notes:
The Red Hot Chili Peppers’ 2016/2017 The Getaway tour, in support of the band’s 11th album by the same name, included a total 151 shows. The 2017 gigs were the first where Rat Sound founder Dave Rat, who has mixed the band’s live gigs since 1991, opted to pass the FOH faders to new RHCP FOH engineer Sean “Sully” Sullivan, who had previously worked on shows for artists including Beck, Rihanna, Beastie Boys and Atoms for Peace.
