Aerosmith reschedules Phoenix farewell tour stop

UPDATE: Aerosmith canceled the rest of its tour, including the Phoenix show, because of Stephen Tyler’s health issues.

PHOENIX – Aerosmith announced rescheduled dates for their Peace Out farewell tour on Wednesday. The rock band will be performing at Footprint Center on Oct. 31 with special guest The Black Crowes.

The group was scheduled to play in downtown Phoenix on Dec. 10 of last year, but many tour dates were postponed because of singer Steven Tyler’s vocal cord injury and resulting surgery.

How did Steven Tyler injure his vocal cords?

Tyler sustained vocal cord damage and bleeding during a Sept. 9 concert last year. The 75-year-old singer’s injury included a fractured larynx.

“Unfortunately, Steven’s vocal injury is more serious than initially thought,” the band wrote on social media last year. “His doctor has confirmed that in addition to the damage to his vocal cords, he fractured his larynx, which requires ongoing care.”
