Lead singer Steven Tyler, guitarists Joe Perry and Brad Whitford,
bassist Tom Hamilton and drummer Joey Kramer will make their way to
Manila for the first time! Grammy winner and rock band icon Aerosmith Live in Manila on May 8, 2013 at Mall of Asia Arena.
MANILA, Philippines (AP) — Members of the American rock
band Aerosmith have arrived in Manila for their first ever concert in
Southeast Asia.
Lead vocalist Steven Tyler told journalists jostling for pictures Monday that "I can't wait to play, I can't believe you guys."
Aerosmith is performing in Manila on Wednesday, with tickets costing up to 20,000 pesos ($480).
The band's show in Indonesia was canceled, with promoter Ismaya Live
citing safety concerns. It was not clear if the decision was connected
to an alleged bomb plot targeting Myanmar's embassy in Jakarta.
Aerosmith began its Asia-Pacific tour in April in New Zealand and Australia.
