Again no dates have emerged for US dates for the RHCP tour in America and again Blackie has recently confirmed a couple of times that RHCP will not tour in America until 2012:

Blackie Dammett: i’d say that was incorrect because they won’t tour america until 2012
RHCP Tour 2012-2012: Asia
Blackie Dammett has mentioned that there will be a tour in Asia but so far only one date has confirmed for the Summer Sonic Festival in Japan on August 13-14th 2011.
