嗯，我想大家应该不意外啦，至少我不意外 :P 虽然还是希望看见这一大票人再重新碰头，但我们也知道John的个性... 除了Chad向John确认过他不会出席HOF外， 第四支单曲将会是"Brendan's Death Song" :) http://ppt.cc/f6Z9 The Red Hot Chili Peppers' unexpected tour break to let frontman Anthony Kiedis undergo and recover from foot surgery may serve to expedite the group's next album. 呛辣红椒因主唱AK的腿伤与术後休养，无预期地中断了巡回，但这也可能 加快了他们下一张专辑的诞生。 Drummer Chad Smith tells Billboard.com he, bassist Flea and guitarist Josh Klinghoffer got together in Los Angeles during the group's time off the road -- which pushed back the start of the North American leg of its world tour to promote 2011's Grammy Award-nominated "I'm With You." 鼓手Chad告诉告示牌，他与贝斯手Flea与吉他手Josh，在这段休息时间聚在一起。 "We just rehearsed and came up with some ideas and new song ideas and stuff and played together for two weeks, and it was really fun," Smith reports. "It came out great -- flowing and really natural and like we've been playing together a lot, which we have. We sent (Kiedis) CDs and he's like, 'I love this stuff! It sounds great. I love the new jams.' That's just good for everything; it's good for morale, it's good for the future. The future is bright." 「这两个星期里，我们聚在一起排练，有些点子，和一些新歌的想法，很好玩。」 Chad接着说：「想法很自然而然的就产生了，好像我们一起演奏了很久一样， 其实也是很久。我们把它录成CD送给AK，他听了之後表示：『我超爱的！ 听起来很棒！我爱那些新的jam！』这样很好，对士气很好，未来也很光明。」 "Brendan's Death Song" So does that mean the next Chili Peppers album will appear in less than the five years between "I'm With You" and 2006's "Stadium Arcadium," or the four years between that and 2002's "By The Way?" "I think so -- I hope so, at least," Smith says. "Normally in Chili Peppers world we never really had this much of a kind of break in a tour. Before, if we had a month off, we would never get together and write song ideas; we always wrote songs when it was time for an album cycle. But everyone just wanted to play. It was great; I came to town, 'Hey guys, I'm gonna be here for two weeks. You want to get together and play?' and everyone was like, 'Yeah! Let's play!' So that bodes well for the future." 看来这意味着下一张红椒专辑不用等到五年(SA→IWY)，或是四年(BTW→SA)。 「我想是的，希望啦。」Chad说 「一般来说，红椒的巡回期不会像这样突然中断。在过去，如果我们有一个月的休息， 我们绝对不会碰头或写歌。我们只有在该做专辑的时候才会写歌。可是现在， 大家就是想要一起练习、写歌。这样很棒。我到了城里，问大家： 『嘿！我要在这待两个礼拜，你们要出来一起练歌吗？』然後每个人都很开心的答应。 预告了未来会很美好。」 That said, Smith expects the group to be on the road for most of the rest of this year. With Kiedis "on the mend," the Chili Peppers hit the road again on March 29 in Tampa, Fla., before heading to Europe in June, with some U.S. make-up dates in August and in the fall. So a new album certainly isn't likely until the end of 2013 at the earliest. Chad表示这次应该是今年巡回中最长的一次休息。因为AK尚待复原，红椒们要到 3/29才会重新上路，之後的六月再前往欧洲，然後八月再回到美国，持续到秋天。 看起来新专辑的部份，得等到2013年年底才会有消息。 Meanwhile, the Chili Peppers are also prepping for the release of a another single from "I'm With You" ("Brendan's Death Song") as well as the group's April 14 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Smith says the group, which on that night will also include past drummers Jack Irons and Cliff Martinez, will perform at the ceremony as well as host a private party the night before the inductions. Guitarist John Frusciante, however, will not be attending. 同时，红椒们也正再筹备推出下一支单曲，Brendan's Death Song， 而在4/14他们也将进入摇滚名人堂。 Chad表示当晚进入HOF的成员还有前鼓手Jack Irons与Cliff Martinez， 他们将一起在前一晚的私人派对，与当晚的典礼上一同演出。 然而，吉他手John则不会出席。 "He didn't feel comfortable coming, which we totally respect," Smith says. "We asked him... He said, 'I'm just not really comfortable with that, but good luck and thanks for inviting me.' It was all good. He's the kind of guy, I think, that once he's finished with something he's just on to the next phase of his life. The Chili Peppers are not really on his radar right now." 「他觉得出席HOF不太自在，我们也尊重他。」Chad说 「我们问过他，他说：『我对这种事真的很不在行，但祝你们好运也谢谢你们邀请我。』 就是这样。他的个性就是如此罗。我想要等他完成他人生中的阶段性任务吧。 呛辣红椒目前已经不在他的生涯规画里了」 But, Smith adds, that won't dampen the celebration in Cleveland. "I'm very pleased about it," he says. "Music's not a competition. Yeah, you like to win Grammys and stuff, but (the Rock Hall) is different. It's not like the flavor of the month or the flavor of the year; it's for a long career we've been fortunate enough to have. I'm very humbled, because the people who are in there...it's not a joke. It's very cool. So we're looking forward to it. It'll be a fun thing. There's no pressure, like, 'Are we gonna win?,' none of that s***. We can just go and have a good time and celebrate with our friends and our families and our fans." Chad补充，这件事并不会影响到他们的庆祝。 「我对此一直都觉得很高兴。」他说 「音乐不是竞赛。是啦，虽然你会想要得葛莱美奖，但摇滚名人堂不一样。 它不是本月最佳、或是本年最佳这种意义。 它代表的是我们很幸运可以拥有这样长的职业生涯。 我很谦卑，因为那些早已身在名人堂的人士...这可不是开玩笑的。 实在太酷了。所以我们很期待。一定会很有趣。绝对不会有压力，像是： 『我们会赢吗？』之类的思绪。 我们就是单纯的出席，好好地跟朋友、家人与粉丝们玩乐、庆祝。」 --
