Some more rumours on Stadium Arcadium
According to the Q Magazine and NME, the new Red Hot Chili Peppers’ album, Stadium Arcadium will be different than the 2002’s By The Way, as it’s going to be much heavier and since all the band members contributed to it equaly this time.

New rumours on RHCP album(s) and tour
According to chiliman from the RHCP BBS who had the time of his life when Chad Smith visited his highschool… …RHCP have not recorded one album, but two and those two albums are most likely not going to be published as a double album, but one after another, with a year between them, so the band can give more attention to touring. And, also, John will be participating in the recording on the new The Mars Volta album and the same band is rumoured to be one of the possible support bands for RHCP. Note that this information is unofficial, so don’t ask me any additional questions.

Brilliant version of UTB on the MTV benefit…
For all of you who didn’t manage to watch the band’s performance on the benefit yesterday, it’s available here. The stream is free and, if you want to download it, you will have to pay and, of course, all the money goes to the victims of the hurricane Katrina. If you’re interested to know what you will see before you see it, RHCP performed “Under The Bridge” and the performance was stunning.
