AEROSMITH Guitarist Comments On Upcoming Tour With MÖTLEY CRÜE

June 22, 2006

AEROSMITH guitarist Joe Perry has commented on the band's upcoming "The Route of All Evil" tour with MÖTLEY CRÜE. The fall trek, which will begin Sept. 14 in Holmdel, N.J., will run for more than two months before wrapping Nov. 24 in West Palm Beach, Fla.

"It's going to be quite a trip," Perry told Billboard.com of the pairing. "I still remember when MÖTLEY CRÜE's first record came out. It was exciting to see them blossom. I saw them play a couple small places in L.A. and then at the Santa Monica Civic Center headlining. It was that incredible rush of when you first break. They really put on a rock show in capital letters. It is always inspiring to play with a band like that."

AEROSMITH are currently recording their new album with producer Steve Lillywhite, who has previously worked with U2 and MORRISSEY. The band were forced to cancel a bunch of shows on their spring tour after singer Steven Tyler suffered a broken blood vessel in his voice box.

MÖTLEY CRÜE are believed to have commenced the songwriting/demoing process for their new studio album with producer Bob Rock, who previously worked with CRÜE on their "Dr. Feelgood" and self-titled albums, as well as the three new tracks that appeared on CRÜE's two-CD "greatest hits" collection, "Red, White & Crüe" (which came out in February 2005). An early 2007 release is expected.
