Aerosmith will resume plans to celebrate their 50-year career with a series of shows at Dolby Live in Las Vegas. The residency, titled Deuces Are Wild , begins on June 17 and ends on December 11.
Aerosmith's last performance, also in Las Vegas, took place in February 2020, about a month before the coronavirus pandemic shut down venues and canceled tours worldwide. The band was scheduled to tour Europe in June and July 2020, but canceled those dates.
In 2016, lead singer Steven Tyler told Rolling Stone that Aerosmith's touring days would soon be over. "Look, there are two bands that still have their original members, us and the Stones," he said at the time. "I'm grateful for that. Whether we do a farewell tour or go into the studio and record another album, I'm excited about it."
But Tyler insists the band is still in great shape. “Whenever we play together, I can’t believe how good Brad [ Whitford ] and Joe [ Perry ] are. And I’m not just saying that because I’m old now and I’ve been in this band for 50 years,” he said in an interview with the website My Planet Rock in September.
The band's full residency tour schedule can be found on their official website . Tickets go on sale March 31st.
