UPDATE: Aerosmith postpones Florida dates — CONFIRMED. For real this time.
July 9th, 2009 by Leilani Polk in News
After two confusing Tweets from Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry — one alerting fans to the re-scheduling of Aerosmith’s Florida dates, the next saying the show could potentially still take place — I finally received word that the show has indeed been postponed.
Here’s the official Ford Amp statement:
(July 10, 2009) Aerosmith has postponed their scheduled show for July 11th at the Ford Amphitheatre in Tampa, FL due to an artist injury. A rescheduled date will be announced soon. Tickets purchased for the Ford Amphitheatre concert will be honored at the rescheduled date. For additional tour and ticket information, please visit www.livenation.com or www.aeroforceone.com.
Here’s Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry’s Tweets:
“Tampa Fort Lauderdale both rescheduled in Oct. Sorry for the let down. Better Steven recovers fully than halfway n strains his leg again”
“Billie n I misunderstood looks like we r keeping fingers crossed 4 Tampa n Lauderdale shows.Sorry.Lost in Translation”

Yes, I suppose that the Floridians will have to chill until the month of Halloween.

sounds kinda fishy to me. i can kinda understand that he’s worried about his stage performance because he is rather physical, but he’s a singer (?). if he wanted these dates to happen he would do without the leg kicks and crap and just sing the songs. believe me, were not expecting much anymore, these guys are pushing 60, just the fact that they are still playing together is a friggin’ miracle.
