God its such a beautiful thing to see his son so excited to see his old life. That's a gift you honestly can never ... thats priceless. I love you Bob. Whether you know it or not you played such a major role in my recovery from Heroin and Oxycodone. I love Bob Forrest man such a good guy.
When you loose the thing that defines you and gives you purpose is when you hopefully finally see the light despite the incredible discomfort. Mr BF surely did a remarkable pivot to regain purpose, hope and life.
The moment when I heard "Body and soul" my life changed, I was this 17-year old all boiled up in rage and confusion and then this song came along and it made me go "Yeah, that's exactly how I feel!" I had so much solace in that song.
A great survivor story. Bob is doing God's work now, helping addicts get straight, body and soul. Bob seems very happy and it should be an inspiration to any person struggling with addiction in any form to strive towards. Thanks for posting this!
Who else hears , with closed eyes, The Dude when Bob is speaking ?! 😅 Their gig at Pinkpop '93 was as rock'n;roll as can be ! Good that he came out this good. (But hey John Frusciante was in a even worse state and is still alive..)
Ive been a huge fan of RHCP since fight like a brave, but i never heard of bob Forrest until celebrity rehab...trippy. didnt know he was a musician or a junkie. Just thought he was dr drew's assistant.
You hear so many stories of our justice system failing people.. but sometimes you hear about it saving people. Like bob and Trey anastasio. Which thank god the world still has both of them, because we're are a much better place with them in it.
at 3:20 the silvertone guitar on the right...I have the exact same guitar bought 25 years ago at an estate sale locally...even missing the pick guard.. actual cherry sunburst with flame even on the back.... woah (you CARE!)
They were abuzz band in the late 1980s but no amount of record label PR seemed to do more then get them minor college radio airplay. CamperVan Beethoven/ Cracker were lumped in with them. Outside of LA they were a cult band.
5:33 I lost a lot of respect for Bob that he would display a print of Mao OUTSIDE HIS HOME. Might as well put up a Hitter painting too. At least he murdered fewer people.
You'd be missing out on a lot. Bob got clean 23-24 years ago, and has been one of the most effective drug intervention counselors anywhere in the country. He sidelined his music to help people quit narcotics and stay healthy. He's saved hundreds of lives over the past couple decades, is a sober and humble guy, and is still a brilliant musician. Post 1990s Bob is one of the best people you could hope to meet.
@Anderson Cooper My point was that there are tens of thousands of drug counselors in America and nothing about this one is particularly unique or interesting except for the fact that he knew famous musicians and was lucky enough to be associated with Dr. Drew. He was a hang-on as a musician and he's STILL a hang-on. Fair play to him----judging by his house, he does a lot better at his game than most other counselors. It's not a well paid profession.

Beautiful story, I remember seeing his Pinkpop performance on TV back then. Glad he's doing really well these days!

the same happens to me!
To me as well!! I love that song!
mooi dat ie toch nog daar uit is gekomen en iets van de grond heeft gekregen
A great survivor story.

Saw him at a restaurant yesterday. He’s doing well!
Love you, Bob!
I like a man who reads lots of books ♥️
You wont find em on RUclips.
@@satansalley6526 lol
He just leaves them half open on display, around the house!
@@SKMikeMurphySJ @satansalley6526 😂😂😂
He is so humbled...After having ALLLL he had, and could have had, and blew it all up, he is so right sized.
Love the way he's still climbing around! Lol

I watched that on TV.. Live.. and I thought I was witnessing the imminent death of Bob Forrest.. Thankfully he's still here and thriving
He looked so dumb at pinkpop. Glad he realizes it and now pays his debts to society. Looks like he became a good man.

Dit ken ik nog als de dag van gisteren....haha, ik word oud.
Amazing turn-around!
One of the greatest songwriters of our time!
Truly one of the most underrated songwriters of our time without a doubt my friend!

you go Bob I'm gonna Try
I just finished reading the Jane's sort of biography. Was there anyone in the LA scene that wasn't a complete skaghead in those days?!
God bless you Bob.
This is like something out of spinal tap lol. Nobody would know anything about this dude if RHCP did'nt mention his band.
Wow the child was wearing a five nights at Freddy's shirt. Awsome!!
What happened to his right hand ring finger?
Accident I would presume.
That is Helge Schneider
Dude went to Layne Staley to help him but he also knew Layne could not be helped. Dude takes care of others
Hes very Smart! He was a Jr Pro Golfer when he was in his teens b 4 he started using Drugs!!! Meth addict
Little boy wearing five nights at Freddy's Jammie's. Awesome.
It’s a children’s game

💉Thank You!
And he has a wife 30 years younger 😂
Wearing Frusciante’s clothes
cool!
Copy of Pink Floyd's UmmaGumma, nice.
I've never heard of this narcissistic, juvenile guy. Judging from this I don't think I'll bother to find out any more.

@Anderson Cooper Yup. His main claim to fame is that he was buddies with more famous musicians. Frankly I think his music was shit.

Y'all go listen to Body and Soul by Thelonious Monster first
He's helped a lot of people including me when I listen to his podcast. What have you done?
I really don’t like this guy’s music….
