Cocked, Locked, Ready To Rock

Just a few months ago the idea of an Aerosmith tour seemed very unlikely.

Steven Tyler said he needed a long break to work on "Brand Tyler," while the other band members questioned his sobriety and threatened to hire a new singer. But before the worst-case scenario happened — and after Tyler went to rehab — the five bandmates sat down to hash things out. "Basically I just said one or two things to Steven and he said one or two things to me," guitarist Joe Perry says. "Being as close as we are, that's all we needed to do. Then we just looked at each other and knew it was time to get the band back together."

Perry continued "Now Steven is singing better than I've heard in a long time and the shows have just gotten better and better. It feels like 1971 again. We've had a lot of ups and downs in the past, and we're up-ing right now."

So here comes Aerosmith's US Tour for 2010, ‘Cocked, Locked, Ready To Rock’. Sammy Hagar & The Wabos will open on 11 of the 16 announced shows.
