Aerosmith is coming out of retirement for two shows at the Hollywood Bowl! 🤘🏻 Aerosmith announced their return to the stage with “California, Dream On: Aerosmith & Friends,” two shows scheduled for October 29 and November 1 at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. These will be their first full-length performances since 2023, when Steven Tyler fractured his larynx during a show in New York, forcing the cancellation of the “Peace Out: The Farewell Tour.” In August 2024, the band had confirmed its permanent retirement from the stage, stating that Tyler’s vocal recovery was not possible. But the singer continued to perform on occasional appearances, including Black Sabbath’s farewell show in July 2025, until he felt comfortable enough to return. The two shows will feature a star-studded lineup: The Black Crowes, Run-D.M.C., Heart, Billy Idol, Slash, Sammy Hagar, Tom Morello, Duff McKagan, and Eric Church, among others, joining Tyler, Joe Perry, Tom Hamilton, and Brad Whitford for what promises to be a historic night for the band’s fans.
