Six songs, three years after the farewell tour stopped告别巡演中断三年后,六首歌
Aerosmith played its first concert in three years on Thursday night at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. Variety and Consequence both reviewed the night, the first of two billed as "California, Dream On: Aerosmith & Friends." The band's set ran six songs and, by Variety's count, about 45 minutes at the end of an evening that stretched to nearly four hours. Consequence reports it was the group's first performance since a vocal injury to Steven Tyler forced them to retire from touring. Variety's verdict was that the set was all you could have hoped for from the Aerosmith of 2026, and maybe a little better.Aerosmith 周四晚在洛杉矶好莱坞露天剧场(Hollywood Bowl)登台,这是乐队三年来的第一场演出。Variety与Consequence都报道了这场演出,它是由两晚组成的“California, Dream On: Aerosmith & Friends”的第一场。据 Variety 统计,乐队压轴时段一共唱了六首歌、大约45分钟,而整晚的演出长度接近四小时。Consequence 报道称,这是主唱 Steven Tyler 声带受伤、乐队宣布停止巡演之后的首场演出。Variety 对这场演出的结论是:这就是你能对2026年的 Aerosmith 抱有的全部期待,或许还略好一些。
The setlist printed by both outlets was "Toys in the Attic," "Back in the Saddle," "Sweet Emotion," "Dream On," "Train Kept A-Rollin'" and "Walk This Way." Variety reported that Tyler showed no sign of the injury that ended the 2023 tour; he told the crowd the band had been together 55 years and was the same band that started 55 and a half years ago. Variety put the set's high point at "Dream On," which Tyler began at a grand piano and finished standing on top of it. The review also noted the older signifiers: scarves on the microphone stand, an open blouse, hair moving in hurricane-level breezes.两家媒体刊登的歌单完全一致:《Toys in the Attic》《Back in the Saddle》《Sweet Emotion》《Dream On》《Train Kept A-Rollin'》与《Walk This Way》。Variety 报道,Tyler 当晚听不出当年中断巡演那次声带伤的痕迹;他告诉观众,乐队已经一起走过55年,和55年半前刚成立时是同一支乐队。该报把整场的高点放在《Dream On》:Tyler 先自弹三角钢琴开场,最后站到了钢琴顶上。评论还写到舞台上的旧标识都还在:麦克风架上系着长围巾,敞开的花衬衫,以及被飓风级气流吹动的头发。
Grohl took the drum stool, Depp took half a soloGrohl 坐上鼓凳,Depp 分走一半独奏
Dave Grohl played drums on the first five songs, and Johnny Depp joined on guitar for the penultimate number, "Train Kept A-Rollin'." Consequence reported Grohl's presence for the majority of the set and Depp's guitar on that song. Variety reported that Joe Perry, Depp's bandmate in the Hollywood Vampires, called him out by name and handed him half of the guitar solo, which the review said he pulled off with ease.Dave Grohl 在前五首歌里坐上鼓凳,Johnny Depp 则在倒数第二首《Train Kept A-Rollin'》中加入弹吉他。Consequence 报道,Grohl 承担了乐队大部分曲目的鼓,Depp 参与的是那一首;Variety 报道,Depp 在 Hollywood Vampires 的队友 Joe Perry 报出他的名字把他请上台,还把吉他独奏的一半让给他,并称他完成得干脆利落。
Joey Kramer, the band's original drummer, had stepped back from the group for health reasons before the 2023 interruption, though Variety notes he had made clear he did not want to be done. Variety reports he walked to center stage near the end, hugged Tyler, and settled at a second kit marked with the initials JK while John Douglas took the main kit. Consequence reports Kramer and Douglas both played on "Walk This Way." Variety's assessment was that Kramer could still lay down a good beat but probably could not do the heavy lifting, and it called the arrangement a compromise that let a co-founder collect his flowers at the close.乐队原鼓手 Joey Kramer 在2023年巡演中断之前,就已因健康问题离开过乐队;Variety 提到,他此前已明确表示不想就此收场。Variety 报道,他在演出接近尾声时走到舞台中央与 Tyler 拥抱,随后坐上一套印有姓名缩写“JK”的备用鼓组,主鼓组由 John Douglas 接手;Consequence 报道,Kramer 与 Douglas 一起完成了《Walk This Way》。Variety 的判断是,Kramer 还能打出稳定的节拍,但恐怕已难以撑满整场,这样的安排算是让创始人在收尾时以在职乐手的身份收获掌声的折中方案。
The 2023 tour ended a few shows in2023年的巡演只跑了几个城市
Consequence reports Aerosmith were forced off the road a few shows into a planned farewell tour when Tyler suffered a vocal injury in September 2023. The following year the band planned to make up the dates, then canceled a few weeks before the run was to start and announced its retirement, citing Tyler's slow recovery. Neither outlet gives a more specific medical account than the vocal injury itself.Consequence 报道,2023年9月 Tyler 声带受伤,乐队在告别巡演开跑几场之后被迫停演。第二年乐队曾计划把取消的场次补回来,却在开演前几周取消,并宣布退休,理由是 Tyler 的声带恢复缓慢。两家媒体都没有给出比“声带受伤”更具体的医学说明。
Variety frames the two Bowl shows as the band's first since that abrupt stop, a little over three years earlier, and asks whether they might also be the last. The paper reports that nobody has said anything official about a finale, and that fans have speculated about further dates, including a possible hometown show in Boston. Consequence's report does not raise the question of an ending at all.Variety 把这两场好莱坞露天剧场演出定位为乐队自那次骤然停演、也就是三年多以来的首次登台,并追问它们是否也可能就是最后两场。该报称,没有任何官方说法把这两场演出定性为终场,乐迷则在猜测乐队之后还会再演,包括未来在老家波士顿办一场。Consequence 的报道完全没有提到“结束”这个问题。
The host said these were the final two shows主持人说这是最后两场
Variety reports that the evening's host, Bill Burr, told the crowd at the top of the night that these were "the final two shows in Aerosmith’s history." Burr said it while introducing Warren Haynes. Variety adds that the offhand delivery made clear he was speaking out of turn, and that it could not be established whether he had let something slip. The review also records a long Burr monologue about a DUI he picked up driving home from an Aerosmith show.Variety 报道,当晚的主持人 Bill Burr 在开场不久、介绍 Warren Haynes 时说,这是“Aerosmith 历史上最后的两场演出”。该报补充,Burr 说这话时口气随意,明显不在流程之内,因此无法确认他是说漏了消息,还是随口发挥。Variety 还记下,Burr 在台上讲了一段很长的单口,说自己年轻时看完 Aerosmith 开车回家途中因酒驾被查。
Neither outlet quotes the band, its management or its publicist on that point. Consequence names the producers as C724 Management and Blackbird Presents; Variety gives the first name as 724 Management. Variety reads the involvement of Blackbird Presents, plus a camera flying on wires above the box seats, as signs a documentary or television special is planned, and as the likelier reason the two nights were assembled.两家媒体都没有就这一点引述乐队、其经纪团队或公关人员的说法。Consequence 把制作方写作 C724 Management 与 Blackbird Presents,Variety 则把前者写作 724 Management。Variety 认为,Blackbird Presents 的参与,加上一台在包厢区上方沿钢索来回移动的摄影机,说明纪录片或电视特别节目正在筹备,而这更可能是这两场演出被组织起来的原因。
Two opening sets built almost entirely from Aerosmith songs两段几乎全由 Aerosmith 作品组成的暖场
The Black Crowes played five songs before Aerosmith, all drawn from Aerosmith's catalogue or from Perry's side project: "Let the Music Do the Talking," "Write Me a Letter," "Combination," "No More No More" and "Chip Away the Stone." Consequence counts four Aerosmith covers and one Joe Perry Project song in the same order.在 Aerosmith 之前登台的是 The Black Crowes,五首歌全部取自 Aerosmith 的作品或 Perry 的个人项目:《Let the Music Do the Talking》《Write Me a Letter》《Combination》《No More No More》与《Chip Away the Stone》。Consequence 的说法是四首 Aerosmith 翻唱加一首 Joe Perry Project 的歌,顺序与 Variety 一致。
Guns N' Roses played five songs, three of them Aerosmith covers: "Nobody's Fault," "Last Child" and "Seasons of Wither," followed by "Welcome to the Jungle" and "Paradise City." Variety's review found Axl Rose stronger in his lower range and, up top, closer to a choirboy falsetto than the raspier instrument it remembered. The rest of the bill was Eric Church, Heart, Sammy Hagar, Billy Idol with Steve Stevens, Warren Haynes and Godsmack's Sully Erna, backed by a house band that Variety says included Don Was, Kenny Aronoff, Nuno Bettencourt and Andrew Watt. Variety counted Church's "Rag Doll" as fun and his "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" as a miss, with the singer reading the words off a monitor through his shades.Guns N' Roses 唱了五首,其中三首是 Aerosmith 的翻唱:《Nobody's Fault》《Last Child》与《Seasons of Wither》,之后才是自己的《Welcome to the Jungle》和《Paradise City》。Variety 的评论认为 Axl Rose 在中低音区状态更好,高音区更接近童声假声,而不是评论记忆里那种更沙哑的音色。当晚其余表演者包括 Eric Church、Heart、Sammy Hagar、Billy Idol 与 Steve Stevens、Warren Haynes,以及 Godsmack 的 Sully Erna;Variety 称伴奏乐队里有 Don Was、Kenny Aronoff、Nuno Bettencourt 与 Andrew Watt。该报还写到,Eric Church 的《Rag Doll》处理得颇有根源味,但《I Don't Want to Miss a Thing》唱得失手,全程低着头隔着墨镜看监视器上的歌词。
A second night on Sunday, and what is still unconfirmed周日的第二场,与仍未确认的部分
A second California, Dream On show is scheduled for Sunday, November 1, at the same venue. Variety reports ticketholders for the first night were warned through their apps that the bill would start at 6:45 rather than 7, and that advertised acts including Run-DMC, Tom Morello, Marcus King, Jerry Cantrell and Train's Pat Monahan had not appeared on Thursday. Variety also records that the band walked off after "Walk This Way" without a farewell, while fireworks went off over the Bowl's shell.第二场 California, Dream On 演出定于11月1日周日在同一场地举行。Variety 报道,第一场的持票观众当天下午通过手机应用收到通知,演出提前到6点45分开始,而不是原定的7点;该报还提到,宣传名单上的 Run-DMC、Tom Morello、Marcus King、Jerry Cantrell 与 Train 的 Pat Monahan 周四都没有出现。Variety 记录,乐队唱完《Walk This Way》后没有道别便退场,烟花在露天剧场的贝壳形顶棚上方炸开。
Liv Tyler and Alicia Silverstone, who both appeared in Aerosmith's 1994 video for "Crazy," introduced the band, Consequence reports. Neither outlet carries a statement about future touring, a release of the footage, or Sunday's setlist. Related coverage on this site includes the Powderfinger reunion tour, Cheap Trick's touring break, Noah Kahan's 2027 stadium dates and the RedBird Sound Ventures fund.Consequence 报道,介绍乐队出场的是 Liv Tyler 与 Alicia Silverstone,两人都出演过 Aerosmith 1994年《Crazy》的音乐录影带。两家媒体都没有关于未来巡演、影像是否会发行,以及周日曲目的说法。本站相关阅读包括Powderfinger 2027年重组巡演、Cheap Trick 暂停巡演、Noah Kahan 2027年体育场巡演与RedBird Sound Ventures 十亿美元基金。
