AEROSMITH Gear Up For Tour, Live Album

March 10, 2005

AEROSMITH guitarist Joe Perry has told Billboard.com that the band will reconvene in late August or early September to prepare for a tour that will begin in the fall.

The group also has begun sifting through material for a prospective live CD/DVD. "We're trying to find a show that has been recorded from beginning to end," Perry said. "That's something the fans have been requesting: a stone cold live record with a video."

"Some of the shows we're looking at are from the last year, but who knows," the guitarist continued. "We just heard about somebody who had a bunch of tapes from 1972. It might be fun to watch some of that on the B-side."

As for the follow-up to 2004's blues-inspired collection "Honkin' on Bobo", Perry revealed that AEROSMITH will try to return to the studio "during a break in the tour sometime next year." And while "Bobo" was recorded in Perry's basement studio, the Boneyard, the next set likely will be put to tape in a new facility the band built within their Boston office.
