For an entire semester, the college's radio, right at my lunch time, had a Chili Peppers music hour. I was so upset when the next semester rolled around, and I lost that.

oh that's just evil. I'm going to have to think about this 
Fri Sep 15, 2006 7:30 pm
I have no idea who John is and I've always liked the Chilli Peppers music.
Fri Sep 15, 2006 8:06 pm
I like both artists, but I like more the Chili Peppers songs than John Mayer's.
"Under the Bridge" pwns.

Red Hot Chili Peppers are my heroes!
Fri Sep 15, 2006 9:22 pm
No contest, the Peppers. I only like one or two of Mayer's songs.
Snow (Hey Oh) is the best.

John Mayer. Chili Peppers=Boring.

John Mayer. RHCP has too many songs about California.

John Mayer, 4 life!

I think john mayer is a good musician and from what i've seen a funny guy, but I do not like his voice so I cannot stand to listen to his songs. I like the red hot chili peppers. They're not my very favorite or anything, but yeah [votes]

Going to have to go with John, though it's pretty close. Mostly decided on who's music is better recently.
RHCP used to be good, but their newest music is crud (Namely their new album...) compared to what they used to be able to do. Only songs on "Californication" that I liked were 'Other Side' and 'Scar Tissue'. Then after that album the only song I've really even cared for was 'The Zephyr Song'. Their music really hasn't done anything for me since then.
