AEROSMITH 'Concert Will Go Forward' In Maui
September 12, 2009Melissa Tanji of MauiNews.com reports that an attorney said Friday that in "a few days" she will be able to release the date when rock band AEROSMITH will hold its Maui concert, which will be put on as part of a settlement in a class-action lawsuit.
"The concert is going to go forward," said Brandee Faria, an attorney representing ticket buyers in the lawsuit.
Originally, the band was supposed to come to Maui following its Mainland tour, possibly this month. But on August 5, frontman Steven Tyler fell off a stage during a performance in South Dakota and the rest of the summer tour was canceled. Tyler broke his left shoulder and needed 20 stitches to close a head wound.
The class-action lawsuit stems from a civil action filed on behalf of four people after AEROSMITH pulled out of a 2007 concert at War Memorial Stadium. Members of the group said they had already bought tickets and incurred travel costs.
In July, 2nd Circuit Judge Joseph Cardoza gave final approval to the settlement, which includes the concert on Maui.
