Rock bands Aerosmith and The Fray have announcements that lead the way in the daily tour recap for August 14, as compiled by TicketNews.
For Aerosmith, it's the end of the road, at least for a while. Lead singer Steven Tyler needs time to mend after a fall off the stage earlier this month left him with a broken shoulder and stitches in his head. As a result of his doctor's orders, the remainder of the band's tour with ZZ Top has been cancelled.
The news is better for fans of piano-rock group The Fray; the band has scheduled a nine-date tour of U.S. campuses for September. Irish ensemble Celtic Woman will be on the road a bit longer than that with 35 U.S. concerts currently booked for October and November. Finally, Neil Young is being honored for his philanthropic work with the 2010 MusiCares Person of the Year Award, which will be presented on January 29, 2010.
Those are the complete concert and tour reports for this Friday. And now, what better way to start your weekend than to peruse some of the other upcoming concert highlights in brief:
