Just announced this morning that Aerosmith with special guest Cheap Trick will make an appearance at Summerfest's Marcus Amphitheater on Saturday July 7, 2012. Show be a good one considering that Aerosmith hasn't been around for awhile due injuries to Steven Tyler and Joey Kramer and Tyler's involvement in American Idol as a judge. Internal frictions within the band didn't help matters either. After having toured Central and South America over the winter, the band is ready to hit the States this summer.Here is an excerpt from an e-mail that was sent to me...
Bassist Tom Hamilton says, "After touring Japan and South America last year we're psyched about bringing it all back for the hometown fans. We're going to break out the classics, the hits and maybe even some of the new ones we've been banging out in the studio."
I've seen Aerosmith before back in 1990 at Alpine Valley during the Pump tour. That was back in their comeback prime. 7th row seats! Couldn't get a better seat in the house! It was a real trip to see Tyler dancing and jumping around in his signature red outfit, singing his ass off.
My girlfriend has never seen Aerosmith and is really keen on seeing this show. Only one problem, I've got Iron Maiden tickets.
KISS along with Motley Crue are making their appearance at Alpine Valley on Saturday, September 8, 2012. KISS shows we all know about, are among the most extravagant concerts to see. The pyrotechnics, the make up and the whole nine yards. Being a huge KISS fan back in their heyday, I'm kinda piqued about going, With no Ace Frehley nor Peter Criss in band has made me reluctant to go all these years. As for Motley Crue,,,,eh... I only like a few tracks off of their Dr. Feelgood album. My girlfriend's son is a huge fan of both and has talked about going to the show with them. We'll see....

I'm not a huge Kiss fan or anything, in fact I prefer music much louder than them. However I do know quite a few people here in Penticton who are much older than I am, that are members of the Kiss army!
One of them told me that Kiss was originally planning on coming to Penticton, hopefully kiss Tickets are a bit easer to get them "the city" decided that they weren't worth the risk of extra policing etc...
Oh and by the way...the Kiss show in Kamloops sold out in 15 minutes...sure would be nice to have a sell out here once in awhile.
15 minutes! That has to be a record!
I think I am going to try for some Aerosmith tix Drew. Been waiting to see who all is coming. Would love to see Steve Miller as well. Gonna be another great concert year! Now I just have to find the money...LOL
You're not the only one Dan. So MANY great names out on tour this summer. Check out some of the county fairs in Wisconsin, you'll find some great names popping up like REO Speedwagon, Foreigner, the Turtles, Tesla, Blues Traveler and Big Head Todd & the Monsters to name a few. I'll be doing research and a blog on it really soon.

That's great Dan! I just got mine this morning. The same section that I saw Rush two years ago. Hope to see ya there!

Saw KISS last year with my kids. Tried to explain to them that it was as much about the showmanship as the music. It was awesome. awesome close seats for $50 tickets bought outside 5 mins before show started ..If I had the chance to see motley I would want to be more close.
I saw Kiss the last 2 times they came around the East Coast..they put on a great show and play all the old classic songs!! For the price of Kiss ticketsthey are always at good prices !!! Enjoy!
