Aerosmith, Kid Rock and Run-D.M.C. will hit the road for 38 dates starting August 13 in Holmdel, New Jersey.
The last scheduled date on the outing, which was announced earlier this month (see [article id="1455000"]"Kid Rock, Run-D.M.C. Back In The Saddle With Aerosmith"[/article]), is November 14 in Mountain View, California.
Aerosmith are touring to support the release of their two-disc greatest-hits collection, O, Yeah! - Ultimate Aerosmith Hits, which will feature two new songs, "Lay It Down" and "Girls of Summer" (see [article id="1453606"]"Two New Songs On Latest Aerosmith Best-Of Collection"[/article]). The release date for the record was recently bumped a week to July 2, and the album will be available with four different 3-D covers.
Guitarist Joe Perry will wear a three-quarter carbon-fiber knee brace during the first part of the tour, as he is recovering from arthroscopic knee surgery. Perry went under the knife last month to repair a torn meniscus and trashed ACL in his right knee. He first injured the knee 15 years ago while jumping off a speaker during the Permanent Vacation tour, and last year he re-injured it while touring for Just Push Play.
