Joe Perry, Steven Tyler and the rest of Aerosmith recently announced they are going on tour with non other than ZZ Top, the long-bearded rockers of the 80's. The tour is sponsored by Guitar Hero, the video game. (I am not a big fan of Guitar Hero because I think it teaches kids that the easy way out, or faking it, may be a good way to go. Alternately, I think kids who like Guitar Hero should actually pick up a REAL guitar and practice! I did it for years and it is not that hard, and a lot more fullfilling to boot!)

Getting back to the Aerosmith and ZZ Top tour, it begins June 10 in St. Louis and runs through Septempber 16 in Detroit. ZZ Top will not play in the first two shows, in St. Louis and on June 13 in East Troy, Wisconsin, and a third act will be announced for the August 28 Chicago date.

Tyler Perry said they have 40 dates already booked.
