Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler has re-entered rehab, forcing the band to cancel upcoming dates for their “Deuces Are Wild” Las Vegas residency. The announcement was posted to Aerosmith’s official Twitter page on Tuesday along with a promise of refunds for the canceled shows.
“As many of you know, our beloved brother Steven has worked on his sobriety for many years,” the band’s statement read. “After foot surgery to prepare for the stage and the necessity of pain management during the process, he has recently relapsed and voluntarily entered a treatment program to concentrate on his health and recovery.”
The post continued, “We are truly sorry to inform our fans and friends that we must cancel our first set of Las Vegas residency dates this June and July while he focuses on his well-being. We will continue our 2022 dates starting in September, and we’ll let you know any further updates as soon as we can.”
It concluded, “We are devastated that we have inconvenienced so many of you, especially our most loyal fans who often travel great distances to experience our shows. Thank you for your understanding and for your support for Steven during this time.”
As Variety reported, the 74-year-old rocker’s substance abuse issues saw him in and out of rehab centers throughout the 1980s. His last rehab stay, in 2009, also stemmed from health issues; he reportedly suffered from “severe chronic pain” due to orthopedic injuries, which led to a prescription painkiller addiction.
“What makes me an alcoholic is not how much I drank or how often I used, or who I did any of that with. It’s what happens to me and who I become when I do, and I don’t like that guy,” Tyler reflected in a 2019 interview with Haute Living.
The “Deuces Are Wild” residency remains on the schedule for September to early October at MGM Live, as well as other fall performances in Maine and Massachusetts.
