Joe Perry Confirms Aerosmith Is Discussing One Final Show: “We’re Talking About It”
In a revelation that’s sure to electrify rock fans worldwide, Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry has confirmed that the legendary band is actively discussing plans for a final concert—a potential farewell that could mark the end of an era for one of rock’s most iconic acts.
Appearing on Trunk Nation with Eddie Trunk, Perry addressed growing speculation about a possible reunion gig following Steven Tyler’s surprise performance at the “Back to the Beginning” concert. The event, which showcased Tyler’s enduring stage presence despite recent health challenges, sparked fresh hopes among fans for a last Aerosmith hurrah.
When asked directly if Aerosmith might follow the lead of bands like Black Sabbath and come together for one final show, Perry didn’t hesitate: “We’re talking about it,” he said.
While no dates or venues have been confirmed, Perry expressed a clear desire—and a bit of anxiety—about revisiting the band’s storied catalog one last time. “I mean, except for like, anything on the calendar, we’re all alive and well, so, you know, we’ll just have to see, you know? I know there’s gotta be at least another Aerosmith gig, and I’m not looking forward to putting the set list together for that one.”
The guitarist’s light-hearted comment about the daunting task of crafting a set list underscores the weight such a show would carry. With decades of hits and deep cuts beloved by fans, choosing the final songs to represent Aerosmith’s legacy would be no small feat.
Trunk also raised the question on everyone’s mind: can Steven Tyler—who has faced vocal cord issues in recent years—still deliver a full-length performance?
Perry answered with confidence: “You know, I think he would. I think it’s just a matter of getting there.”
Aerosmith’s “Peace Out” farewell tour was postponed last year due to Tyler’s vocal injury, leaving fans uncertain about the band’s future. This latest update suggests that, while their touring days may be behind them, the band still has one more moment left to share with the world.
If this truly is the end of the road, it sounds like Aerosmith is preparing to go out in style—with one final, unforgettable night of rock and roll.
