"We might always be writing music, writing songs...I can't imagine that going away . I want to write a song today, tomorrow . That's quite a satisfying thing to do . I think about it all the time, there's so many things that I want to sing, melodies, and lyrics . So, if you have people you want to work with for a lifetime, there's no reason you can't write songs until the day you die ." </P> <P> Dave Rat, the band's sound engineer since February 1991, announced that following the band's show of January 22, 2017 he would no longer be working with the band .

I think we owe it to ourselves to start from the beginning with this guy and see what we can accomplish" Kiedis said . </P>
