Aerosmith announce ‘Peace Out’ North American farewell tour

Rock

Aerosmith will be embarking on a farewell tour of North America later this year.

The extensive run of shows will kick off in Philadelphia in September and will continue making stops throughout North America until late January 2024, where the band will sign off for good in Montreal. According to a press release, the shows are set to “celebrate the five decades of Aerosmith’s groundbreaking hits as they celebrate 50 years as America’s greatest rock band”. Support will come from The Black Crowes.

In a joint statement, Aerosmith said: “It’s not goodbye it’s PEACE OUT! Get ready and walk this way, you’re going to get the best show of our lives.”

It has also been confirmed that drummer Joey Kramer will be sitting out of the tour. “While Joey Kramer remains a beloved founding member of Aerosmith, he has regrettably made the decision to sit out the currently scheduled touring dates to focus his full attention on his family and health,” the band said. “Joey’s unmistakable and legendary presence behind the drum kit will be sorely missed.”

Kramer took a “temporary leave of absence” from the band last year to “focus his full attention on his family during these uncertain times”, missing the final shows of their Deuces Are Wild Las Vegas residency. 

Some of the shows at the beginning of the residency’s final leg were cancelled after frontman Steven Tyler checked himself into a drug rehabilitation facility. They also cancelled some of the final shows in December due to Tyler’s health.
