LOS ANGELES (AP) — Aerosmith will be touring a city near you for the last time to celebrate the rock band’s 50-plus years together.

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame band announced Monday the dates for their farewell tour called “Peace Out” starting Sept. 2 in Philadelphia. The 40-date run of shows, which includes a stop in the band’s hometown of Boston on New Year’s Eve, will end Jan. 26 in Montreal.

“I think it’s about time,” guitarist Joe Perry said in an interview with The Associated Press.

Perry believes the time to say goodbye is now, especially with every founding band member over the age of 70. Tyler, 75, is the oldest in the group.

1. My first concert. Aerosmith with Golden Earring opening. Richmond Coliseum

‘79?

A younger teacher took my brother and I. Her boyfriend was there too. Since we were “going out downtown” Mom made us where our church clothes - tie not jacket. My older brother ditched his shirt and tie as soon as we got there.

I remember everyone wearing black t-shirts and the funny smell.

2. Yep, we're going New Year's Eve. Tickets go on sale Friday

for Boston. I hope it won't set us back a lot but we'll get what we can afford and hope it's good enough.

3. My first concert. Nazareth and Aerosmith

I was all if 17. Stood about 3 feet fro the stage.
The air was thick and green. Guy behind us passed his peace pipe to Steve Tyler who took a hit on stage. It was not tobacco in that pipe.

Cool memories
