Total travel time was a whopping 90 minutes. Coming into the center was a good 15 minute back-up. I left at about 5 minutes to 6pm I had smooth waters until about the Tacoma Mall. I even sacrificed my ticket to display with it. I bought a collectable poster on thick cardboard as my souvenir. They played Denver before it, and were moving on to Portland next. Here a brief overview of the show Saturday! It was about the 9th stop on an a 30 plus date tour through December. Surprise special guests the Everly Brothers were introduced mid-way and sang three of their classic hits before Simon & Garfunkel returned to the stage to sing “Bye Bye Love” with them.

They really came through for me too! I would recommend this live act with two thumbs up. It was worth it though, because I was due for a decent rocking. Late night though.Traffic sucked, and I did not get home until about 1am. That was humorous and news timely, and of course dedicated to our poor excuse for a vice president. There was funny spot in the show where Steven Tyler changed the words on “Janies got a gun” to “Cheney’s GOT A GUN!”. They wandered out the ramp whenever they felt like and were absolutely mind blowing. They were electric and all over the place. They had the screen behind them, very high tech, and a ramp that went all the way out in the audience. There was lot of 80s stuff from “permanent vacation”, “Get a Grip” and “pumped” cd’s. “Walk this way” was like second, and “Sweet Emotion”, “Dream On”, “Back in the saddle”, “Toys in the attic”, “Train Kept a rollin”, “Baby Please don’t go”, “no more no more” which they mentioned was recorded in 1975 for the “Toys in the attic” album, which came out 31 years ago when I was in the 8th grade. The light show was wicked, They played most the songs you expect. There was only 5 days left on this leg of the tour, so they rocked hard and had rehearsed well. They opened with a Beatles song “Helter Skelter”. Steven Tyler had his trademark scarf’s wrapped around his mike stand, with some gems and glitter on the bottom of the bass. They rocked solid for about an hour and 45 minutes. He did not blow away, or steal any thunder from our boys from Boston, but seemed extremely convincing.Īerosmith took the stage at 10pm. His stage props were laid back compared to the head-liner. ![]() Lenny played about 1 hour and fifteen minutes, Some of the highlights were “American Woman”, “Are you going to go my way”, “Fly away”, and “Let love rules”. Their amps were twice the size of Aerosmith, but did not come close to matching the sound. He had his usual sexy female drummer and the band rocked with plenty of hits. We did not like our nose bleed seats, and moved just behind the mixer to the best seats in the house without getting asked to leave! I was able to grab my traditional key-chain and collectable band pins beforehand and beat the rush. We snuck in the back door of the show with my friends handy-cap sticker. ![]() We had to walk about 5 blocks one way, up to Pacific, to find a cocktail, but my 2 long island ice teas made it worth the trek. We found a FREE parking spot about 2 blocks away from the $20 pay spots since we were early. We left from Olympia early, around 4:45 and missed all the traffic. ![]() They called this tour “Rockin’ The Joint 2005/06, and man they sure did! I am tired, shnockered, and nursing a headache, but I am feeling alive at the same time from the awesome music. I still remember the “Rocks” tour in the Seattle King-dome back in 1976 when Jeff Beck and Rick Derringer were on the bill. This was my 5th time Kind of like a good bottle of wine. I just got back from the Aerosmith concert at the Tacoma dome, and it was amazing. (The Actual Ticket from the actual show in Tacoma!) Because of this factor, no detailed list remains intact of each concert performed on Brooks' 1993–94 tour.The POP Music Journal of Eric Turnbow AEROSMITH was AMAZING on 02/15/06 Dome! “Rocking The Joint Tour” Concert dates were announced at random, a tradition later popularized by Brooks on his other world tours.
