The rock group Aerosmith will celebrate its 50th anniversary by going on tour for one last time, and it is in Montreal, at the Bell Centre, that this final series of concerts will end on January 26, 2024.
Of course, you should always be wary when a rock legend announces that he will be saying goodbye, but if Steven Tyler and his cronies do not change their minds by signing, for example, another residency contract in Las Vegas, it is in Montreal that they will sing the classics for the last time Dream On, Living On The Edge And Walk This Way.
However, the Boston team will leave without an important member of the family, drummer Joey Kramer. “While Joey Kramer remains a beloved founding member of Aerosmith, he has sadly decided to skip the concerts currently scheduled in order to focus on his family and his health. The incomparable and legendary presence of Joey behind the drums will be missed, ”explains the group, by way of a press release.
