I have been able to confirm that the upcoming single, is in fact called:
BLACK SUMMER
And it's coming next Friday, February 4!
Not sure about the artwork, but might as well be real.

"There’s a loose plan for a second album after ‘Unlimited Love’" - JF
As you all know by now, Josh Klinghoffer is officially no longer a member of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Thank you Josh. It's been an incredible ten years.
Four and a half months later, the "Unlimited Love Tour" has come to its end.
As

Here's an interesting fact...
On this day,
@ChiliPeppers
' most acclaimed live performance on August 23, 2003 represents the exact middle point in their carreer.
The time distance from their first show ever to the Slane Castle show is the same from that show to today.
"Easily" solo from September 18, 2000 - featuring Josh Klinghoffer on second guitar.
This is his first ever known appearance with RHCP on stage. A few years later, he would join as a touring member from April 7, 2007 until the end of the "Intergalactic Tour".
Yes, that’s John and Dave playing together this evening in LA.
While this is incredibly awesome, it’s also so weird! A new
@ChiliPeppers
era has begun... hold on tight!
Two funny coincidences?

Exactly 10 years after his departure announcement, we've been informed John Frusciante has joined the
@ChiliPeppers
for the third time.
Bittersweet feelings right now. John coming back is honestly completely unbelievable - but Josh didn't deserve to be left out, at all.
Jams are essential to a RHCP show as they make them unique, no question about it. It’s a pleasure to see musicians doing what they do best.
But I highly believe the shows would benefit with a few extra songs. Keeping the jams in a 20-song set, in ~2 hours, would be a sweet spot.
always jam live. if you just wanna see a song played like on a record, just listen to the record. where is the risk and hope for something higher without improvisation???

“Yes, John is back in the band, and everyone knows that. We’re psyched. The festivals are the only shows booked. For now, we’ll mostly be concentrating on new songs and writing a new record. We’re all real excited to make new music.” -

Here's some stats on the "Unlimited Love" and "Return of the Dream Canteen" songs performed live.
Exactly half of the released songs on both albums (not counting bonus tracks) have been performed live. Of those seventeen songs, only the first ten were in regular rotation.

Even if it's not real, it's so great to see the four of them together again.
Lookin' good...

We don't usually celebrate album anniversaries but "One Hot Minute" is 28 years old today, and since it's undoubtedly their less performed album live, let's give it some love.
