AEROSMITH To Tour With ZZ TOP

AEROSMITH To Tour With ZZ TOP - Apr. 4, 2009


Gary Graff of Billboard.com reports: Health issues and touring commitments have combined to postpone AEROSMITH's next album, according to guitarist Joe Perry.

Perry tells Billboard.com that the record sessions — for the group's first album since 2004's "Honkin' on Bobo" and first of all-original material since 2001's "Just Push Play", were delayed when he had to have surgery earlier this year to clear out an infection in his knee replacement.

Then, last month, singer Steven Tyler came down with pneumonia, after which the veteran Boston rockers "realized there wasn't any chance of getting it finished before we hit the road for the summer. So basically we had to push (the album) back, and when the band gets off the road, that's when we'll pick up the AEROSMITH record."

AEROSMITH's tour, the group's first since 2007, starts in June with ZZ TOP. Perry says about 40 dates are set so far for North America, with South America, Europe and Japan also under consideration. The itinerary should be announced soon.

Learn to type when you're drunk, man.

i want to see Aero in EU. why they don't wanna do tour over EU ?

I'd go to see ZZ Top as I've seen Aerosmith before-back in '93 when Jackyl opened!

That sounds like one good tour

I'd go see it though.

I've seen Aerosmith numerous times and ZZ Top once, but I wouldn't mind catching this one. If I'm lucky, they'll play the in the arena where I work.

Anybody know the status of ZZ's new album? Is the tour going to coincide with a possible release? (hope)

They probably need more than that.

Well, I hear those little blue pills affect your vision. We want them to know what chord they're playing.

I'd fully expect Billy Gibbons and Joe Perry to be able to play the guitar well enough with out having to look at the fretboard.

This would be cool.

Following in the steps of Deep Purple (who performed Machine Head in its entirely a few years ago) and Judas Priest, Aerosmith is considering the following:

According to VH1 Radio, Aerosmith is considering performing an entire album on their upcoming tour with ZZ Top. Joe Perry told VH1's Dave Basner that he would like to do Toys in the Attic and while he would not confirm or deny if it would happen, the inside scoop says to expect an announcement before they kick off their tour June 10th.

Should be a great tour.

That would be AWESOME!

I'd be interested in hearing how Uncle Salty, Adam's Apple, and No More No More would sound coming from a band 34 years after they wrote them.

I can't go to this show as it's during the week.
