The interview with Chad was aired on 105.9 The X, a Pittsburgh radio station. The Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer answered two questions that were on evey Peppers fan mind: Is John not in the band anymore? and Who’s the new guitarist?

At the first question, Chad said that John will always be in the Red Hot Chili Peppers, but now he is a busy man doing music on his own, music that he loves.

And yes, Josh Klinghoffer is the new guitarist, as Chad Smith stated during the interview;)

Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist FLEA and Yeah Yeah Yeahs guitarist NICK ZINNER are currently working with filmaker SPIKE JONZE on a new project. It has been reported that Jonze has a new short film called “I’m Here,” and he asked the pair to help him soundtrack the flick.
