Are they going back to VEGAS or do we not know yet? I hope not. It seems such a waste. They haven't got many shows left and to play the majority in a theatre in Vegas really limits fans seeing them.

But increases how much they can make per show, without the need for all that travelling between venues!

I hope Tyler says something bad about Elvis and they get barred from Vegas. Lets see other fans get the chance to see them live. How many Aerosmith free years have we had in England!? Way too many

And just Festivals

I'm going to Vegas in late December or early January, so was hoping I could catch them when I'm there - or maybe plan my trip around it. I haven't seen them live since 2004, so figure I'm due!

No matter how close Vegas is, it is still an expensive trip. I live 435 miles away, but airfare (before COVID-19) was crazy expensive. If you drive, then it's all day with absolutely nothing to see. Then there's the cost of a hotel and eats. Way out of reach, but also way worth it when you're talking about Aerosmith.
I do feel, though, for those across the country, or even out of the country. It's double or triple to cost to come for the shows. Last April before a show I met a couple from Brazil. They planned to get married while in Vegas, so their trip was double duty.

I think Vegas is hit and miss with its prices. Hotels are fairly cheap compared to other big touristic cities. I mean without going all fancy with suites the deals have usually good value because hotels want you to spend money at their casinos. If you're not a gambler Vegas might be less expensive than expected. Shops are pretty expensive of course but that's granted given its location and nature.

I hope you hit lucky in Vegas. Not sure when big gigs will restart and I'm not keen on the idea of a social distance gig. It'd be nice if Aerosmith came to your home city. You're definitely due

Oh yeah I took a bus from LA to Vegas and it was rather dull. Ticket prices are higher than Europe too. I could easily do 4 shows in Europe for the price of a trip to Vegas for 1 show. If I'd never been to Vegas it would appeal to me and for me it'd be Pit or bust. I couldn't sit

And just Festivals Yeah, was surprised that the X3 went all the way there, though Since Wembley in '99 (Last UK leg of the Nine Lives world tour) they've done : Hyde Park Calling 2007 Download 2010 O2 Arena 2010 Download 2014 Clapham Calling 2014 Download 2017 5 festivals and 1 headline arena show (don't think I have missed anything here) I was only able to do half of those shows

I was in USA when Hyde Park and Clapham Festivals were on. They may do 3 UK shows in 2021 but it's impossible to get a ticket for Glastonbury

Clapham is the best Aerosmith gig I've attended. Such a cool place and they smoked. Stage was low so the view was perfect, weather was perfect, a bit rainy during the day but not really pouring...you know...London rain. All green, very nice crowd, smooth organisation, nice surrounding in clapham common. Such a cool memory.

They may do 3 UK shows in 2021 but it's impossible to get a ticket for Glastonbury And because they moved the shows to fit around the new Glastonbury date it means there’s two gigs in three days for me as it is, Aerosmith in London on the Wednesday and Green Day in London on the Friday! Had anticipated them being the same weekend in July as this year, so cancelled my Ramblin Man tickets hoping to be able to catch Aerosmith in Manchester on the Saturday... c’est la vie...
