In a new email interview with Charlie Kendall’s Metalshop, Aerosmith bassist Tom Hamilton sheds some light about the future of the band while also clarifying some things about frontman Steven Tyler’s vocal injury that forced the rock legends to retire from touring. “Let me start by clearing up some information on Steven’s injury,” Hamilton wrote. “We were playing the third show of our ‘Peace Out’ tour last September. During the third song of the set Steven had a fall that resulted in a fracture to his larynx. Somehow he finished the show. It’s a testament to his strength and desire to give the people what they came for.”

That show – at UBS Arena in Elmont, New York on September 9, 2023 – is Aerosmith’s final performance, and as to the future of their live show, Hamilton had this to say. “We don’t know what the future holds but it won’t include touring. There’s been no talk at all about going on the road with another singer. I can’t imagine it.” (Consequence of Sound)
