Aerosmith cancels first set of Las Vegas residency as Steven Tyler enters rehab

Aerosmith have been forced to cancel their first set of 2022 Las Vegas residency dates as band’s frontman Steven Tyler enters rehab. The band has released the following statement around the matter:

“As many of you know, our beloved brother Steven has worked hard on his sobriety for many years. After foot surgery to prepare for the stage and the necessity of pain management during the process, he has recently relapsed and voluntarily entered a treatment program to concentrate on his health and recovery. We are truly sorry to inform our fans and friends that we must cancel our first set of Las Vegas residency dates this June and July while he focuses on his well-being.

“We will continue our 2022 dates starting in September, and we’ll let you know any further updates as soon as we can,” the statement continued. “We are devastated that we have inconvenienced so many of you, especially our most loyal fans who often travel great distances to experience our shows. Thank you for your understanding and for your support for Steven during this time.”

Thank you for your understanding and for your support for Steven during this time.
