The Stadium Arcadium World Tour (also known as The Intergalactic Tour)^[1] was a 2006–2007 concert tour by the band Red Hot Chili Peppers in support of their ninth studio album, Stadium Arcadium. The band started out with a pre-tour promotional leg of dates around the world while the world tour was composed of six legs, three in Europe, one in Australia, New Zealand and Asia, and the other two in the US and Canada.

The tour was the last to feature guitarist

Global Stadium Tour. Frusciante confirmed his departure from the band in 2009 but rejoined in 2019. Frusciante was replaced in the band by longtime friend and musical partner, Josh Klinghoffer

, who was a backing musician for the Peppers in 2007 on the final legs of the Stadium Arcadium tour, serving as an additional guitarist, backing vocalist, and performing keyboard parts. Adding an extra guitarist for the first time to their touring lineup gave the band a chance to perform songs that they were otherwise unable to play with just one guitarist.

Tour overview

Most shows started with an opening jam by

Catholic School Girls Rule" and "Sex Rap" were performed for the first time in over 15 years.^[4] The tour also marked the first time since 1991 that two of the Peppers' biggest and best known singles, "Give It Away" and "Under the Bridge

", were not included in all performances leaving some fans at certain shows upset that one if not both of the songs were left out of the setlist. Of the album's 28 songs and 10 B-sides, only 20 songs have been played live in any capacity, none of which were B-sides, and "Hard to Concentrate" was not played live until the band's I'm With You tour.

This tour marked the last time "21st Century", "

Catholic School Girls Rule", "C'mon Girl", "Desecration Smile

", "Funky Monks", "Readymade", "Sex Rap", "So Much I", "Stadium Arcadium", "This Velvet Glove", "Torture Me" and "Warlocks" were played live.
