I don't think he's actually upset I think that's all part of the gag. Otherwise why would they have done the stuff on Fallon and the charity stuff together?
Every world class musician gets asked about his artistery but he gets asked about s.o. else ..., totally understand him. If you get the same joke told for now 20 years ....
Me- being a fan of RHCP since the early 90's and a Will Ferrell fan since the early 00's. Never put the similarities together until the RHCP song By The Way came out and I remember seeing the video for the first time and there's a part at the end of the video where Chad Smith's getting into a cab. I was like "Holy crap! Will Ferrell is in this video! How cool!" Then I realized it was Chad😆 After that, I always wondered if anyone ever thought the same thing about them looking so much alike. Then a few years ago I was watching Jimmy Fallon and seen both of them together doing a drum off. Yep, guess I wasn't the only one thinking it. Loved it!
I was a working drummer for ten years in multiple bands with back problems. Moving and setting up my own drums 4 times a day for a show killed me and lead to my opiate addictions just so I could get through a show. I grew up playing guitar since I was 9. I never touched a drumkit till I was 20. I loved playing drums. But everyone needs a drummer. It's kind of like owning a pickup truck. Everybody is going to call you to help them move.
I've been playing drums for 19 years, started getting seizures around 20 years old and my drivers license was taken away, haven't been allowed to drive for 11 years and wish I could lug my drums to gigs. Cabs are so expensive, I don't make any money from gigging it's just for fun but I can't do it often.
It’s either on the off the map tour DVD or on the greatest hits disc, but I remember there was a behind the scenes documentary where all of the other chili peppers are talking about meditating and drinking some whacky vegetable shake crap before they go on stage, and it just cuts to Chad and he says ‘I just smoke a bunch of cigarettes and drink a few beers and I’m ready to go’. That’s always summed him up.
I was just on the RHCP wiki page. It says Anthony played guitar from 1991 to 1998. I found it funny because I'm assuming they are talking about when Anthony would pretend to play onstage. But clearly he's never played.
johnkiedis27 johnkiedis27 I’ve actually only ever seen him holding a guitar a very small number of times. He definitely can’t play and never did in the studio.
I just have to say i been a peppers fan since h.s. i am 43 now. And chad smith has been one of my favorite drummers for years. Many friends have known this. And back then. About 2000ish. Omg ny friends would tell me all the time. "He looks like will ferrell" i would get so mad lol then all sudden few years later its all over. I was like DAAAAMMIIT! hahahha
People saying Chad Smith Looks like Ferrell/Tom Waits I agree but anybody getting some Keith Richards' vibes? The eyes and the hat definitely add to it.
Why does chad Smith gets mad? I don't know why he gets annoyed..hes already famous is not like wiil Ferrell is using him to profit off him so i really don't see it!!
Same!! Have you seen him drum to “30 Seconds to Mars” without ever even hearing the song, on the Drumeo channel? I know that your comment is an older one, but if you still have a crush on Chad, your crush is about to get even more insane after you watch that. Incredible 🤯🥁🤘🏻🙌🏻
Tell me about the day Sam made you laugh Never has a guy who looks and sounds like he's a masturbation addict with a passion for reading phonebooks, had so much succes on radio.
Hands-down, the most low substance interview ever conducted. You have a percussion GOD in front of you, and you spend the whole time talking to him about Will Ferrell, shopping and being naked??? What a joke!!! Truly disappointing.
+Nick Mccartan I'd rather have him do acid house records like his last couple solo records, than be in a turd of a band like RHCP - any fucking day of the week.
4 real4real....He gave him a Dixiecup...filled with a killer sppedball that took the man out...chex out what River's friend William Richert said about it....FB.....
As far as I'm concerned, the blood, sugar, sex and magik has left the band. Why? Because 3/4 or the are over 50! Some bands last 4 years, these guys have seen 4 decades. The band could have ended, but thanks to Josh Kilinghoffer, millions of teenagers who would've been to young to see them back in 08, can now see their heroes. And remember, there's at least one person out there who believes Josh is the best guitar player of all time. I think what they're doing is inspiring young people to pick up an instrument. Also, financially they can sponsor music programmes and charities.
Chad says they never intentionally wrote a song to try and repeat the previous success of a song, but I'm fairly certain the song "My Friends" was written to capitalize on the huge hit that was "Under the Bridge". Nothin wrong with that, just saying.
Frank John I agree. They are my all time favorite band. Theres very few songs they did that I didnt like. The main one that comes to mind is "Throw Away Your Television"
RHCP is just not the same without Hilel. John is a great guitar player but Flea, Chad and Anthony have a thing that is so tight and unique, it doesn't matter who plays guitar.
In an episode of Aqua teen hunger force, the guys got to go backstage with Chickenfoot (Sammy Hagar, Michael Anthony, Joe Satriani, and Chad Smith). In the episode Chad was wearing a t shirt that said "I am not Will Ferrell!" Great unspoken joke.
I think Chad is sexy AF. Even more so now than here, 6 years ago. He’s swaggy, tall (6’3”), smart, talented, and funny as heck. It all makes for a very attractive package, IMHO
Mr.SmithGNR Smith u skipped a step, step 4 should be dig hole or else you could be out there all night and never know who might show up next thing you know your digging two holes.
It never ceases to amaze me how bothered he is by the whole Will Ferrell thing, especially when we all think it’s sooooo great.
😂😂😂
It’s baffling how he’s not in on his own joke. I love how no ones letting it go either 😂
He doesn't care. He's the one who brought it up.
I don't think he's actually upset I think that's all part of the gag. Otherwise why would they have done the stuff on Fallon and the charity stuff together?
6:43 he literally says it doesn’t bother him. I’m sure it gets old when 100 people a week say something. H
Every world class musician gets asked about his artistery but he gets asked about s.o. else ..., totally understand him.
If you get the same joke told for now 20 years ....
He went from looking like Will Ferrell to looking like Tom waits

Chad's sense of humor and comedic timing is not any inferior than Will Ferrell.
The way he tells the "You are very handsome" story is just brilliant 👍
The man is funny and a beast of a machine behind a drumkit.
Chad Smith looks like Flea and Will Ferrell's baby
Aaron Bohnsack I thought the same thing 😂
YES!! I’ve always thought that too! 😂
Easily the most down to earth Chili pepper
RossKempOnYourMum01 because he is the drummer
I think they're all down to earth

@@lynottlives yup Off The Map
Sam looks like a real life Moe Szyslak from The Simpsons.
LMMFAO!!!!!💀
Chad is a hybrid combination of Will Ferrell and Indiana Jones Harrison Ford...

Dude looks like Indiana Jones
Chad Smith, go on Joe Rogan!
Chad Smith plays on the upcoming Joe Satriani album "What Happens Next"!
Does Will Farrell ever get recognized in public as Chad Smith
The weird thing is him and Will Ferrel have the same sense sarcastic sense of humor.
enough of the band stuff, he was better in anchorman
God Chad is awesome. That's the first time I heard about Jim's printing story. That is pretty hilarious.
One of the more comical members of the RHCP
here for the Chip reference... CUT THAT PART OOOUTTTTT;FUHKK YAAA
I just have to say i been a peppers fan since h.s. i am 43 now. And chad smith has been one of my favorite drummers for years. Many friends have known this. And back then. About 2000ish.

Sam actually says "i love your shoes"
Compare Chads personality with Wills, and you will see why Chad despises looking like him.
That one guy looks like Chester Linkin Park
Cool ass interview futha mucka. Makes me wanna go buy a donkey or somethin
Man I wish Jim would find a co host that was atleast close to his level, Sam is just not the one.
People saying Chad Smith Looks like Ferrell/Tom Waits I agree but anybody getting some Keith Richards' vibes? The eyes and the hat definitely add to it.
Poor Chad kept having to talk about the sock thing
Chad looks like my grandfather 15 years ago
Who died 25 years ago
vhollund ya but he wears a better hat then yu...ahahajajha
Holy crap this dude gets pissed about Will Ferrell. It's funny why are you so offended?
Why does chad Smith gets mad? I don't know why he gets annoyed..hes already famous is not like wiil Ferrell is using him to profit off him so i really don't see it!!
He looks like Harrison ford
yes boys!
Will Ferrel is hot with that hat
The thing is that Chad is funny. People who know who he is are just as likely to walk up and say that.
I have had mad crush on chad for years
Same!! Have you seen him drum to “30 Seconds to Mars” without ever even hearing the song, on the Drumeo channel? I know that your comment is an older one, but if you still have a crush on Chad, your crush is about to get even more insane after you watch that. Incredible 🤯🥁🤘🏻🙌🏻

Never has a guy who looks and sounds like he's a masturbation addict with a passion for reading phonebooks, had so much succes on radio.
They start off with sneakers and shopping? Ugh.
Nigga. Ladies Man was dope.
he sounds like vos
Hands-down, the most low substance interview ever conducted. You have a percussion GOD in front of you, and you spend the whole time talking to him about Will Ferrell, shopping and being naked??? What a joke!!! Truly disappointing.
ronald mcdonald shoes
How do you mention Handsome Dick Manitoba and not plug the Dictators? Ugh.
That dude in the purpleish shirt is tweeky as hell lol.
RHCP just not the same without John Frusciante
+Nick Mccartan
I'd rather have him do acid house records like his last couple solo records, than be in a turd of a band like RHCP - any fucking day of the week.
4 real4real....He gave him a Dixiecup...filled with a killer sppedball that took the man out...chex out what River's friend William Richert said about it....FB.....
Of course it's not the same, it's different because they have a different guitarist
Do you mean red hot chili peppers are not the same without will farrell
As far as I'm concerned, the blood, sugar, sex and magik has left the band. Why? Because 3/4 or the are over 50! Some bands last 4 years, these guys have seen 4 decades.

And how can his oldest son be 12 when he has six kids?
Chad Smith puts one ear in the hat and one folded underneath....??.? Who the fuck does that? Dude looks just Will Ferrell tho.
He’s so goddamn sensitive. I guess he wasn’t kidding when he blew up at a drum clinic just because someone yelled “”Will Ferrell!”. What a baby.
Brandon Hagler dude like 10 year he still hear the same joke
Thats will pharrel
cut the part out fawk ya
Poor little jimmy he use to be funny.
Chad says they never intentionally wrote a song to try and repeat the previous success of a song, but I'm fairly certain the song "My Friends" was written to capitalize on the huge hit that was "Under the Bridge". Nothin wrong with that, just saying.
add scar tissue and snow too
Only thing is they are all great hits. They didnt suck.
Frank John I agree. They are my all time favorite band. Theres very few songs they did that I didnt like. The main one that comes to mind is "Throw Away Your Television"
Strange subject.. of course they wrote shit that sounded like other shit they wrote. Duh.. Same band, same sound. It's a given. Fucking stupid topic.
John Loobkoff eeeh not really is a very diferrent song actually
Jesus this guy tells a story like a grandma, a lot of unimportant details and the pay off is never worth it. Hell of a talented musician though.
However great the music, ageing rock stars are the worst.
Mick G. Mick G!!!
Neil Colvin Is this some backward American spelling like Color or labor that I'm not aware of, or are you stalking me from some other post?
londonacid1 What?
Oh I seee. So you DIDN'T think i was Mc G.!!! I thought you might be an American literalist. Apologies. i don't understand Irony or sarcasm...
RHCP is just not the same without Hilel. John is a great guitar player but Flea, Chad and Anthony have a thing that is so tight and unique, it doesn't matter who plays guitar.
Name a good chilli peppers song without John
Patrick O'Hara there’s none lmao
I hate the Red Hot Chili Pepper's music, but Chad Smith is a super interesting guy. I'll watch his show.
do you hate their music with josh, or hate hate all of their collective work? Just curious.
I shouldn't say I hate it. That's too strong of a word. I dislike their collective work. Just not my thing.
The Chilix are fucking great
Paul Ricciardi ...Soul to Squeeze is amazing dude. A lot of their music is off beat trash though. By The Way is a great album.
Mr.SmithGNR Smith you mean funk? "Off beat trash" doesn't describe any of their music
waiting for the day the will ferrel thing will truly die out and people will talk about how awesome chad is.
Everyone will always talk about how awesome of a drummer Chad is. As for the Will Ferrell thing...never gonna die. Once a meme, always a meme.
In an episode of Aqua teen hunger force, the guys got to go backstage with Chickenfoot (Sammy Hagar, Michael Anthony, Joe Satriani, and Chad Smith). In the episode Chad was wearing a t shirt that said "I am not Will Ferrell!" Great unspoken joke.
I am a simple man. I see Will Ferrell on thumbnail. I click "like".
V S I thought it was older, rocker Will Ferrell as well😭
Looks like Will Ferrel, sounds like Dave Meltzer.
I rate this comment 6 stars :D
very good call! He doesn't speak as fast though
sounds like vos
Does sound like Metzger
Love the show father muckers.
Tomis Muska Father Muckers fondled me incessantly during my stint as an alter boy.
I miss that old man.
Good ole Father Muckers
What's going on, miaaaan...
This is the first time I’ve actually heard him have a conversation 🤯 he seems like a lot of fun
Big up to chad for no in bout the ladies man ...
I think Chad is sexy AF. Even more so now than here, 6 years ago. He’s swaggy, tall (6’3”), smart, talented, and funny as heck. It all makes for a very attractive package, IMHO
i think the whole sock thing flea decided he wanted to do it on stage and they came out doing it after the show
I swear to god I thought it was Will Farrell in the thumbnail.
Mediocre Jim, that's VERY charitable.
His more like an old Han solo
Suit without a shirt eh
God they really are the same guy.
November days are lovely and sad
Jimmy's old classic rock rants were gold. Especially when he went after RHCP.
Shops at Target but that’s a nice $160 hat you’re wearing 🎩
It's funny to watch how much he deeply hates Will Ferrell.
Does Flea talk like Chad, or does Chad talk like Flea?
Amazing interview
@ 13:05 hahhaha what with you?!?! Hahha
Oh I thought this was Will Ferrell as chad smith on the thumbnail
17 mins - fuk ya
It took me a couple minutes to realise that's not Will Ferrell...
John was the heart and soul of RHCP.
Mr.SmithGNR Smith not really , flea and anthony are
John wasn't even an original member you idiot. Anthony and flea are.
Aaaaand he’s fucking back!!!
Always had a weird uggh feeling for this guy, now I know why.
JaydenAndDaddyMovies for who
because he looks like Will F?
@@masacatior HAAAAaaa!!
Holy shit he looks a lot like Will Ferrell.
Chad I luv ya but .. dude you brought up the Ferrell thing then you say you don't want to talk about it lol. Hhah. Cool.
Beautiful story about them meeting. Ferrell had the perfect response.
step 1: Keep the camera off Sam;
step 2: Cut Sam's microphone;
step 3: Invite Sam out of the room;
B aa hahahhahhhaha!
B aa ...step 4: murder Sam
One can dream.
Mr.SmithGNR Smith u skipped a step, step 4 should be dig hole or else you could be out there all night and never know who might show up next thing you know your digging two holes.
He does look a lot like Will Ferrel
What a series of dumb questions showing not preparation at all
