Saturday Night Live - Aerosmith

Posted over 2 years ago

This is Aerosmith on the final night of their US 1988 tour. The gig took place at the Pacific Amphitheater, Costa Mesa, CA, USA back on the 15th September 1988. This is the second half of their set.

The album 'Permanent Vacation' was released in September 1987, becoming a major hit and the band's bestselling album in over a decade (selling 5 million copies in the U.S.), with all three of its singles 'Dude (Looks Like a Lady)', 'Rag Doll', and 'Angel' reaching the Top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100.

The group went on a subsequent tour with label mates Guns N' Roses who have cited Aerosmith as a major influence. The tour was reportedly 'intense at times' because of Aerosmith's new struggle to stay clean, amidst Guns and Roses well publicized rampant drug use.

    I read recently that Steve Tyler is out of rehab, out of the band, and they are considering Billy Idol as the new front man....man, I hope not. Love Aerosmith ...can't imagine it....

    Aerosmith is a favorite, and this is from a concert venue in my neck of the woods. That's a double kudos for you. I hope they come back together, after Steve has some deserved time off.

    This autoplayed, but you can uncheck that option when you first start building the playlist, Rummy.

    I've always had a soft spot for dream on. One of those songs I never tire of listening to. Go figure

    That was a great set, though I am not a big fan (only have "Big Ones" and "Honk'n On Bobo").
