Aerosmith Regretfully Announce Cancellation of Remainder of Summer Tour
14-Aug-09

It is with great regret that Aerosmith are canceling the remainder of their summer tour, it was announced today.

Due to injuries Steven Tyler sustained last week when he fell from the stage during a concert in Sturgis, SD, doctors have advised the lead singer to take the time to properly recuperate from the accident that resulted in a broken shoulder and stitches to his head. In his current condition, Tyler is unable to tour and the band wants to give him time to get healthy.

Ticket refunds for the rest of the tour dates with special guests ZZ Top will be available at point of purchase.

Tyler fell from the stage during the August 5 show that was part of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in Western South Dakota. The mishap occurred while he was dancing during the band's "Love in an Elevator." Tyler was subsequently airlifted to a hospital and then returned to Boston to consult with his own doctors.

Aerosmith want to thank all their fans for their incredible ongoing support and understanding at this time.

"Words can't express the sadness I feel for having to cancel this tour," says Joe Perry. "I would like to thank our loyal fans for sticking by us through thick and thin and all the good energy they are sending our way. We hope we can get the Aerosmith machine up and running again as soon as possible. I sure am going to miss playing with ZZ Top just as I'm sure the fans are going to miss seeing them playing with us as well. Hope to see you sooner than later." Joe adds, " My hat's off to our crew for putting up with this crazy stop and start tour. In my estimation, it was one of the best looking and best run tours we've ever had. Us road dawgs will meet again. May your wheels keep turning and your load in's stay smooth."

"All of us here in the Aerosmith organization and all of the people who contribute to making our shows possible are in a state of shock," Brad Whitford says. "We never anticipated this tour coming to such a swift and unfortunate ending. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Steven for a speedy recovery and return to good health."

I'm guessing less than 10.

Aerosmith star Steven Tyler is thanking fans, doctors and his guardian "angel" after surviving a nasty tumble at a concert earlier this month.

Tyler was airlifted to Rapid City Hospital after falling off the stage while performing at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota on August 5.

He broke his left shoulder and needed 20 stitches on the back of his head and the band has subsequently canceled the remainder of its summer tour.

Now the veteran rocker has spoken out in a lengthy statement, released on Thursday, to explain the accident and praise those who saved his life.

Tyler explains the gig first took a turn for the worse when thunderstorms caused an hour-long delay, and audio systems malfunctioned shortly after the band took to the stage.

He says, "Well, I wasn't gonna go hide under the big top and play 'ROCK STAR' and wait for everything to be fixed. I wanted to go out to the crowd to continue the show.

"I was doing the Tyler shuffle and then I zigged when I should have zagged ... AND I slipped, and as I live on the edge ... I fell off the edge!"

The 61-year-old thanks fans for their "love and support" and heaps praise on the police department and helicopter operators "for getting me outta there before I bled to death."
He also acknowledges the doctors and nurses who looked after him as well as "the angel on my shoulder."

It's not to be taken lightly since his heed needed stitches, it could be similar to KEEF's injury. Maybe they operated on his head. ouch!
