Aerosmith on the Brink of Goodbye – But Is This Really the End?
Joe Perry, the legendary guitarist of Aerosmith, has thrown a lifeline to fans by saying the band is still considering the possibility of one last concert. Yes, you read that right – there might be one final farewell show, provided Steven Tyler can perform well enough to meet expectations.
The Injury That Stopped the Tour
Remember, Aerosmith announced their retirement and canceled their farewell tour after just three shows last August. The reason? Steven Tyler’s serious vocal cord injury. This injury didn’t just halt the tour; it cast a shadow over the future of a band that has been synonymous with rock’n’roll for decades.
Private Gigs and Optimism in the Air
Though the tour stopped, Tyler hasn’t vanished completely. He performed at several private events, including the Janie’s Fund charity concert in San Francisco, where he played alongside Joe Perry. Perry revealed in an interview with SiriusXM Trunk Nation that the band still talks about the possibility of reuniting for one last show. “We probably talk several times a week,” Perry said, adding it would be incredible to see him and Tyler trade riffs on stage once more.
Will Tyler Be Able to Play a Full Concert?
The big question on fans’ minds is whether Steven Tyler will be ready to perform an entire concert. Perry is optimistic: “I think he could. It’s just a matter of whether we get there.” Clearly, the band is ready to come back, but Tyler’s health and energy are the key factors.
What’s Joe Perry Up to Now?
While waiting for an Aerosmith miracle, Joe Perry isn’t sitting idle. He’s preparing a short tour with the Joe Perry Project this August. This all-star lineup includes Aerosmith bandmate guitarist Brad Whitford, Stone Temple Pilots bassist Robert DeLeo, and Black Crowes singer Chris Robinson, among others.
Hollywood Vampires and the Documentary Everyone’s Waiting For
Perry also revealed that his supergroup Hollywood Vampires, featuring Alice Cooper and Johnny Depp, is working on a documentary. “I just saw a rough cut and it’s pretty amazing,” he said. Though everyone is busy, there’s hope this crew will reunite soon.
Conclusion: The End or a New Beginning?
Aerosmith is a band that has survived decades, musical shifts, and personal challenges. Their story might not be over yet. Joe Perry and Steven Tyler are still keeping the door open for one last concert, and fans worldwide are eagerly waiting to see if the legends will reunite for an unforgettable show.
