Aerosmith have sadly postponed part of their Peace Out… Farewell Tour, as Steven Tyler recently revealed that he has suffered an injury to his vocal cords. While the band kicked off their shows in Philadelphia on September 2 and only got three dates in, they were also supposed to play a show tonight in Toronto.
Their next show is now not until October 11 in Tampa.
“I’m heartbroken to say I have received strict doctor’s orders not to sing for the next thirty days,” Tyler shared in a Twitter statement.
“I sustained vocal cord damage during Saturday’s show that led to subsequent bleeding,” he added. “We’ll need to postpone a few dates so that we can come back and give you the performance you deserve.”
