Steven Tyler seriously injured his voice at a gig, Aerosmith have confirmed that their days of touring have come to an immediate end.

Check out footage and the full setlist from their final show below.The gig took place at UBS Arena in Elmont, New York on September 9, 2023, and no one – including the band themselves – knew it would be their last.Held as part of their ‘Peace Out’ tour, the run of live shows kicked off last year, but the band only played three nights, before rescheduling the rest of the dates after Tyler injured his larynx.Their final show, held in Elmont, New York, followed on from their tour opening set in Philadelphia on September 2, 2023, and a follow-up show in Pittsburgh on September 6.Like the others, it began with a video montage of the band throughout the years, before Tyler and co.

erupted on the stage and opened the set with a rendition of ‘Back In The Saddle’. From there they went into a cover of the Rufus Thomas song ‘Walking the Dog’.

This was the first time they had played it live on the tour, and it came after they originally covered it on their 1977 LP ‘Draw the Line’.From there, countless fan favourites followed, including ‘I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing’, ‘Cryin’’, ‘Livin’ On The Edge’, ‘Love in an Elevator’ and ‘Sweet Emotion’.‘Bright Light Fright’ – taken from their ‘Draw The Line’ album – was also aired out for the first time since 1994, according to Setlist.fm, and Aerosmith closed out the night with back-to-back renditions of ‘Toys In The Attic’, ‘Dream On’ and ‘Walk This Way’.Funnily enough, the last song they played at what would soon be confirmed as their final-ever show was not one from their discography.
