Due to injuries suffered by singer Steven Tyler's after recent fall from a stage during a concert at Sturgis, Doctors have told the 61 year old rock legend to take it easy and the band has subsequently canceled the remainder of their tour which was to stop at Blossom Music Center on September 10.
Refunds for the show will be available at the point of purchase.
Tyler was attempting to keep the crowd entertained while the band was experiencing some sound problems, but the lithe sexagenarian apparently didn't see the edge of the stage until he had fallen off of it.
Through the magic of YouTube we can all enjoy the spill.
Ouch!
Tyler got up and waved to the crowd before being airlifted to the nearest hospital.
This one's kind of a bummer as the band had been playing their breakthrough 1975 album Toys In The Attic in its entirety and weren't we all looking forward to hearing Uncle Salty live?

I've always enjoyed Aerosmith.I seen them at the Coliseum ,I think it was 79.They were awful then.The instruments were much louder than the singers.You could hardly hear Tyler singing at all!! AS much as I am a fan,I do wish they would quit touring altogether,they are going to start getting teased like The Rolling Stones did,if they keep it up..30 years is long enough.
Some things never change. If memory serves, they cancelled three times before that Coliseum show.
They oughta hang it up. Mr. Plastic Surgery along with his faulty nose job that caved in the cartilage in his left nostril taking a header off the stage pretty much sealed that deal for me. Not only is he back on the booze and drugs again, but he's now reminding me of six-year-old kids who twirl and twirl and try to make themselves dizzy and then tumble head over heels like a Euclid Avenue wino.
Give it up, already. One of those guys is eventually going to die on stage. Tom Hamilton is very lucky in that regard, his cancer is still keeping him off the stage. That way, he won't be able to die on it.
