Nah keep the Mac covers, invite Buckingham to the stage to piss off the Mac members.

Invite the guy who vetoed Fleetwood Mac playing Peter Green-era Fleetwood Mac songs to piss off the people in Fleetwood Mac who play them now he's gone?

Do I go home after a hard day's shift on the spreadsheets and slap Honkin' on Bob on the turntable?

No

But do I want to be elswhere and not down in the pit taps aff when the Toxic Twins deploy F.I.N.E.

Also no

But would you rather be any place else when the bass intro to Sweet Emotion kicks in?

[Andre91]

Their performance at Download 2017 was fantastic and a proper party. They have so many bangers and Tyler was excellent considering his age and amount of his body that is definitely solid cocaine by now.

Granted it was a fairly convoluted and badly phrased post....what I'm saying to Noel Gallagher is

Brad's taking the solo on Stop Messin' Round and smashing it out the park.

Meanwhile, Steve is indeed honkin' on bobo

And to be honest, this here live stab at Oh Well is mighty fine.

But yeah, stop feckin around with Mac covers when you've got dozens of your own songs I'd rather hear.

[Gnomicide]

Well, I've made it through to the end. That was ace, bring it on for 2021.

Good start to the day....

Feel so bad for Macca having to take that stage a couple of hours later knowing he hasn’t got a song half as good as Don’t Want to Miss a Thing in his catalogue. Embarrassing really.

Excellent start. Still eye watering ticket prices though.

My girlfriend has bought us tickets for the Sheffield show, cost her £160 for two seats!

[Chrisp1986]

Self confirmed.......

Does anyone know if Aerosmith are due a new album soon or will this now be more like a Greatest Hits set?

It’ll 100% be a greatest hits set. They’re at the stage of their career where even if they did have a new album out they’d only play one song from it in a live set.

Hole In My Soul came on my spotify the other day and forgot how much I loved that as a teenager. Not sure if that is classed as classic enough for a set though!

Honkin' On Bobo full album gig

The story so far....

6/12/19 - Email sent out to Aerosmith fans with Glastonbury date included. Not added to website.
12/3/20 - 1st Glastonbury poster drop, Aerosmith not included.
18/3/20 - Glastonbury cancelled
8/12/20 - Aerosmith rescheduled dates announced, in UK in June, no Glastonbury but suspicious gap.
21/1/21 - Glastonbury cancelled
22/2/21 - Aerosmith rescheduled dates announced, Glastonbury included on website, later removed.

In 2020 the 3 headliners for The Pyramid and The Other were confirmed. This pointed to Aerosmith either being "The Rock Slot" and getting an extended Saturday afternoon slot on The Pyramid or being a sub. My money was firmly on the first option.

I don't see any reason why things would be different in 2022.

Mr. Whitford is now not so sure.

Why would Brexit impact an American band touring Europe?

I'm not sure of this, but I think he's thinking that traveling from the UK > Europe would still make taxes and visas difficult, but I'm unaware if that is a thing.

My thoughts exactly. Surely just one more visa for them? Perhaps extra costs?

[FloorFiller]

Sounds more like he can’t be arsed with it anymore after all the fake-out ‘last shows’ etc but the others are insistent on trooping on.
