Overview

• Aerosmith officially retired from touring on August 2, 2024, after Steven Tyler’s fractured larynx during the 2023 Peace Out farewell tour proved insurmountable.
• In an August 12 WBUR interview, Perry stated that Tyler “doesn’t want to tour and he can’t tour,” highlighting the physical and emotional toll of lengthy road shows on aging rockers.
• Despite ruling out another multi-city run, Perry said he “would bet that there’s an Aerosmith show left,” pointing to discussions about a documentary and a potential final performance.
• Tyler’s guest appearances at high-profile benefit events, including Black Sabbath’s “Back To The Beginning” concert, have kept fan speculation alive about a comeback.
• Perry is touring this month with The Joe Perry Project, playing eight U.S. dates alongside Brad Whitford, Buck Johnson, Chris Robinson, Robert DeLeo and Jason Sutter.
