Red Hot Chili Peppers increased "morale" by writing new songs while their tour is delayed.
The "Under the Bridge" group had to postpone their US dates from January to the end of this month after frontman Anthony Kiedis injured his foot, and drummer Chad Smith said they took advantage of the time off to start on new tracks.
"We just rehearsed and came up with some ideas and new song ideas. It's good for morale, it's good for the future. The future is bright. 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. But everyone just wanted to play. It was great," Smith said.
Chad - who is in the group with Anthony, bassist Flea and guitarist Josh Klinghoffer - also confirmed former axeman John Frusciante, a member of the band for their most popular albums, Blood Sugar Sex Magik, Californication, and By the Way, will not attend when they are inducted into the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame in April:
