Due to worries about its lead singer Steven Tyler’s health, Aerosmith has cancelled all of its 2022 performances. The band announced on Facebook on Thursday that it was cancelling its final two Las Vegas performances. Steven is required to sit these out under the physicians’ recommendations. “Stay healthy and we’ll see you in the new year,” the band from Boston urged fans. Aerosmith began recording their next album, Night in the Ruts, in 1979, but during a gap in the production schedule, the band opted to go on tour. The band’s drug use started to have an impact as the decade ended, and tensions were gradually rising. On July 28, 1979, the band’s tour brought them to Cleveland Stadium, where they performed as the festival’s main act. Backstage commotion was caused when Terry Hamilton, the wife of Tom Hamilton, was hit with a glass of milk by Elissa Perry, the wife of Joe Perry.
