The tour began in September 2011 at the Simón Bolívar Park in Bogotá , Colombia . The shows in Chile , Brazil , Peru , Argentina marked the band 's first shows in South America in nine years . The band finished out 2011 with shows in Europe . As the North American leg of the tour approached frontman Kiedis sustained a foot injury . Dates were postponed and later rescheduled . In April 2012 the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame where they performed a few songs and were joined by former drummers Jack Irons and Cliff Martinez on " Give It Away " marking the first time the two drummers had performed with the band since their departures in the 1980s . The day following the ceremony , the band played a free show at the House of Blues for Obama reelection volunteers . During the concerts in Florida , the band wore hoodies in support of the Trayvon Martin case . The band was joined onstage by Jack Irons and Cliff Martinez during the encore of their August 12 , 2012 show at Staples Center just like they were at the hall of fame induction performance earlier in the year for a performance of " Give It Away " . Josh Klinghoffer broke his foot during the band 's August 14 , 2012 show . The following night he was in a walking boot . Klinghoffer used a chair when needed on stage to get through the performances until his foot was properly healed . No dates were cancelled or postponed due to his injury . Chad Smith said Klinghoffer 's injury would not have any effect on the tour and joked he actually plays better since hurting his foot . It was around this time during the summer of 2012 tour dates that Klinghoffer began to tease various songs from the band 's back catalog , many of which haven not been played in years , such as " My Friends " , or ever before such as " Gong Li " and " Long Progression " , an outtake from '' I 'm with You '' . Most teases occurred prior to the performance of " Under the Bridge "
