Following the band's brief first tour the previous year, original members, Hillel Slovak and Jack Irons left the band to tour and record with their own band, What Is This? who had also obtained a record contract shortly before the Chili Peppers did. Slovak and Irons considered the Chili Peppers a side project and What Is This? to have the brighter future. In late 1983, auditions were held and Irons was quickly replaced by Cliff Martinez, best known for his work with The Weirdos, The Dickies and Captain Beefheart. Dix Denney, Martinez's Weirdo's bandmate was close to becoming the band's new guitarist however after a few rehearsals they felt Denney's style didn't match what the band wanted. Through further auditions it came down to a guy named Mark Nine and Jack Sherman. The band had no clue as to who Sherman was or how he got to the audition but knew he was the best fit because he instantly clicked musically with bassist Flea and Martinez.With a new lineup in place and their debut album finally released, the tour in support of their debut album saw the band spend the entire year on their first United States tour after their previous tour was spent touring their homestate of California. At one point in the tour the band played 60 shows in 64 days. During the tour, singer Anthony Kiedis and Sherman had many personal problems and even some on stage arguments which left Sherman swearing he was going to quit many times. By the end of the tour, Sherman was fired and Slovak, who decided things were not working out with What Is This?, returned to the band."@en }
