It happened a year ago. John Frusciante离开RHCP其实已经不是新闻了，因为一年前就成真了。 In a statement at MySpace today, Frusciante explained the old news. Frusciante在MySpace上发了一篇声明，解释这件旧闻。 He said, “When I quit the band, over a year ago, we were on an indefinite hiatus. There was no drama or anger involved, and the other guys were very understanding. They are supportive of my doing whatever makes me happy and that goes both ways”. 他说：「我在一年多前离开乐团，当时我们正在无限期的假期中。 整件事既不戏剧化，也没有充满愤怒，他们也很能理解我的作法。 他们支持我做任何让我自己开心的事。」 “To put it simply, my musical interests have led me in a different direction. Upon rejoining, and throughout my time in the band, I was very excited about exploring the musical possibilities inherent in a rock band, and doing so with those people in particular. A couple of years ago, I began to feel that same excitement again, but this time it was about making a different kind of music, alone, and being my own engineer”. 「简单说就是，我的乐风已经走往另一个方向。 重新加入乐团的这些时间中， 对於可以在摇滚乐团中，与特别的人一起挖掘音乐的可能性，我一向感到很兴奋。 几年前，我又再次感受到了那种刺激，只是这次是对於创作不一样的音乐。 一个人，做我自己的东西。」 “I really love the band and what we did. I understand and value that my work with them means a lot to many people, but I have to follow my interests. For me, art has never been something done out of a sense of duty. It is something I do because it is really fun, exciting, and interesting. Over the last 12 years, I have changed, as a person and artist, to such a degree that to do further work along the lines I did with the band would be to go against my own nature. There was no choice involved in this decision. I simply have to be what I am, and have to do what I must do”. 「我很爱这个团体以及我们所做的一切。 我明白我们共同创作的对大家极具价值，但我还是必须依从我的心意。 对我而言，艺术不是一种责任感。 而是让我觉得好玩、刺激且有趣的事情。 经过这12年，我变了，身为一个人、一个艺术家， 要达到这个程度，我必须投入全部的心力， 继续待在乐团里将会违背我的天性。 这个决定没有其他选择，我纯粹想要做我自己，以及做我必须去做的事。」 “Sending love and gratitude to you all”. 「我永远爱你们，感激你们。」 Red Hot Chili Peppers will make their first post hiatus return on January 29, 2010 for the MusiCares event honouring Neil Young. RHCP将在2010年1月29日Neil Young的纪念音乐会上做长休後的第一场演出。 我可以哭吗...................................... 我很明白John的心情，我也很能理解他的决定， 毕竟他的一直不愿意当个ROCK STAR， 我的理智祝福他未来音乐事业开新、顺利， 但我的心，真的哭了。 --
