With another [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
tour and the first release of his instrumental side band Chad Smith's
Bombastic Meatbats looming, the drummer has October circled on his
calendar for the [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]' return to active duty.

"That's the plan," Smith tells Billboard.com, noting that what was
announced as a one-year break turned into two for the quartet after
touring to support 2005's "Stadium Arcadium." "Everybody was like,
'Y'know, I really like having this time off, not being a Chili Pepper
and doing other things...It'll be two years in September, so now we're
ready. You can't force people to play when they don't want to play or
aren't ready to play or whatever -- not in our band, anyway."

Smith expects bassist Flea and guitarist John Frusciante may come in
with some musical ideas, but the group will mostly likely "do a lot of
improvising and jamming and songs will come out of that, too. That's
what we usually do. I don't know why it would be different."

No prospective release date has even been considered yet, and Smith
says he and his bandmates also "haven't talked about" who will produce,
though he acknowledges with a laugh that Rick Rubin, who's produced the
group's last five studio efforts, "always ends up being the guy...But
we haven't discussed it."

The looming Chili Peppers sessions
do make Smith "the bad guy" in Chickenfoot, but the other members of
the all-star group have assured him they'll continue to work according
to his schedule. The quartet, which begins its next tour Aug. 2 in
Halifax, has also filmed shows in San Francisco and at this year's
Montreux Jazz Festival, and the Aug. 30 show in Atlanta and at least
one more will be documented for a possible DVD release.

Meanwhile, Smith is excited about introducing the world to the
Meatbats, a group that formed a few years back as an outgrowth of
Smith, guitarist Jeff Kolman and keyboardist Ed Roth's work with Glenn
Hughes. They first performed live in 2007 and have continued to work
together intermittently.

"It's all very loose," Smith says.
"It's instrumental music -- power, funk, rock music. It's a niche.
We're not going for the Mariah Carey crowd or anything. It's just
really fun and they're great guys and we just have fun hanging out and
playing."

In addition to debut album, which comes out Sept.
15, the Meatbats have already recorded a second set of songs that Smith
predicts will be out in early 2010, along with a live album at the
Baked Potato in Los Angeles. "We have three albums in the can and none
of them are out yet," Smith says with a laugh. "But we won't wait very
long. It's not like we're putting out singles and we have to have some
kind of strategy. This is stuff we can put out whenever it feels right."
