Idle Aerosmith to Play
"Idol" Season Finale and
Announce
Tour of Latin America
The current and
future status of the "bad boys from Boston" has been the subject of
immeasurable speculation, but not long after Steven Tyler announced on
Leno that Aerosmith would play on the season finale of "American Idol"
a handful of Latin American tour dates were released. The tour kicks
off October 22 in Lima, Peru. Pre-sale tickets will be made available
on May 24 and May 25 for the band's fan club. General tickets will go
on sale May 26. Aerosmith first played in Latin America in 1977 and
last year's electrifying tour through South America left fans begging
for more. Tyler says of the upcoming tour, "I'm looking forward to
sweating up a storm with the crazy Latin American fans." The 63 year
old Tyler was on Leno to plug his new autobiography "Does
the Noise in My Head Bother You?" and his new solo single "Love
Lives"
"The band is
so excited to play for our Latin American fans. We didn't think we
would be back so soon. Every gig we play there is always a special
one," says guitarist Joe Perry of their return.
"We had a
fantastic time when we toured South America in 2010 and are looking
forward to seeing our amazing and passionate fans across Latin America
when we return later this year," adds bassist Tom Hamilton
