Last night, The Red Hot Chili Peppers kicked off their UK arena tour with BABYMETAL at The O2 in London.

 The band were supported by Japanese metal idol sensation BABYMETAL – who stunned and bemused the capacity crowd with their high octane, choreographed spectacular.

“It didn’t really sink in for me when I first heard that we would be supporting RHCP,” SU-METAL told NME. “But when I heard people around us commenting on how incredible it is to be on tour with such a celebrated band, that’s when it finally sunk in and realised what a remarkable honour it is to tour with RHCP.”
