- During a
performance in Alaska, Steve Tyler of Aerosmith twisted his knee
resulting in the postponement 4 scheduled
performances. The twisted knee occurred
during the encore of the concert, but
Tyler did complete the show. It was soon
announced that Tyler's knee injury would
result in the postponement of 14
Aerosmith performances due to upcoming
surgery and recuperation. The postponed
performances were all in North America
and were rescheduled for the late summer
or early fall. Tyler said of the
postponements: "I can't tell you how
sorry I am that we're being forced to
postpone these shows and disappoint our
fans across the country. In all of our
years together, I don't think we've
missed more than a handful of gigs, so
this comes as a tremendous blow to all of
us. All I can say is that I'm going work
my butt off after the operation to get
back on my feet so that we can get out on
the road again as soon as possible."
