AEROSMITH TO RETIRE FROM TOURING
Aerosmith announced on 8/2 that due to lead singer Steven Tyler's vocal injury, the band will "retire from the touring stage."
In September 2023, CBS News reported Tyler as saying, "I sustained vocal cord damage during Saturday's show that led to subsequent bleeding."
The news of the band's live retirement came as the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees were on the third date of their 2023 farewell trek, Peace Out... Farewell Tour, when the band was forced to postpone the remainder of the tour. Friday's announcement officially canceled the remaining dates.
