Rolling Stone • • entertainment
Key Points:
- Aerosmith will perform two comeback shows at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on October 29 and November 1, featuring numerous guest artists such as the Black Crowes, Run-DMC, Heart, Billy Idol, Slash, and more, under the event name "California, Dream On: Aerosmith and Friends."
- The lineup for each night will vary, with additional special guests and surprise appearances to be announced closer to the shows, and general tickets go on sale starting October 10.
- The announcement follows Aerosmith's canceled 2023 'Peace Out' farewell tour, which was cut short after frontman Steven Tyler suffered a larynx injury that ultimately prevented a full vocal recovery, leading the band to retire from touring.
- Despite the injury, Tyler has made occasional appearances at special events without vocal issues, while other band members have pursued side projects, including Joe Perry's ongoing work with the Joe Perry Project and Tom Hamilton's activities with Close Enemies.
