> AEROSMITH TO HEADLINE SWEDEN ROCK JUNE 10TH
Aerosmith, one of the biggest and most influential bands in rock history, return to Solvesborg on June 10th for one of the most exciting shows of the summer.
Aerosmith - Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, Brad Whitford, Tom Hamilton, Joey Kramer - return to Europe for the first time in three years in what promises to be a sensational show.
The Sweden Rock festival is the first of several European Aerosmith dates, their first live dates this year, and it looks set to be one of the highlights of 2010.
Steven Tyler said: "Swedish audiences are like no other. We're all very excited."
Joe Perry added: This is the first show of our European Tour. We can't wait to uncork our tour here in Sweden and I am sure the cork will hit the ceiling."
