Aerosmith have retired from the road. Their farewell tour had made it to its third stop last September when Steven Tyler was waylaid with damaged vocal cords and fractured larynx. Now, after multiple postponements, the band says “a full recovery from his vocal injury is not possible.”
In a note on their website, Aerosmith wrote, in part,
Aerosmith began their farewell tour in acrimony after a woman sued Tyler alleging sexual assault and sexual battery when she was a minor. (He denied the allegations.) After the first postponement, another woman sued Tyler, claiming that he sexually assaulted her in 1975 when she was 17 years old and he was 27. A judge dismissed the latter suit, ruling that too long had passed since the alleged incident.
