Aerosmith announce summer tour

As expected, Aerosmith have announced the first leg of dates for a summer tour.

“The Global Warming Tour” will hit 18 cities once it kicks off June 16 in Minneapolis, MN.

“The old Aerosmith is back with a new vengeance and we will kick your ass and make out with yur mothers,” says Steven Tyler.

"After touring Japan and South America last year we're psyched about bringing it all back for the hometown fans,” adds Tom Hamilton. “We're going to break out the classics, the hits and maybe even some of the new ones we've been banging out in the studio. Can't wait to get to Minneapolis!"

"Can't wait to bring this band back home,” says Joe Perry. “It feels like we've been away too long."

Cheap Trick will open the first series of dates; more shows will be announced shortly.

Tickets go on sale March 30 and 31 at Ticketmaster.com and LiveNation.com.
