Flea: It’s a TWO-year hiatus!
In his interview for Los Angeles Times’ blog two days ago; Flea revealed that he’s now a student at USC, that he’s planning a solo record and, when he was asked about the status of Red Hot Chili Peppers at this moment, his response was contradictory to what Chad Smith had said a couple of months ago.
So, are the Chili Peppers working on a new album?
No, we’re on a major hiatus. It’s a two-year hiatus.And that was very set? You said, ‘Two years and then we’ll talk about starting again”?
Basically, yeah. We just needed two years. We had our noses to the grindstones so hard for so long. We needed to get away from it and get a fresh perspective on things.At this point, do you guys have plans to get back together and record something else?
We’re just taking the two years off and seeing where we are at the end of that.
