As a result of an illness, Aerosmith has cancelled its Friday evening show. The band’s Twitter page reports that lead singer Steven Tyler is “unwell and unable to perform,” and as a result, they cancelled the show. It was scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. on Friday. Just over an hour before the show started, the band announced the cancellation on Twitter. Three more performance dates are listed for the band’s limited residency Deuces Are Wild at the Dolby Live Theater at Park MGM for December. Tyler is expected to make a full recovery in time for Monday night’s show, the band said on Twitter. Additionally, the band provided information regarding refunds for Friday’s cancellation.

Tyler entered a treatment program after relapsing following foot surgery in June, causing the band to cancel their residency dates in July. Additionally, Aerosmith recently performed at Fenway Park, making history. 38,700 fans attended the sold-out show, breaking the venue’s ticket sales record. Additionally, the concert marked the band’s 50th anniversary. Boston, thank you so much! As a result of your efforts, Fenway Park broke its 110-year record for most tickets sold for any event! It’s been 50 years and we’re still rocking!!, the band wrote at the time in celebration of the historic performance.
