Concert Reviews 

Reviews for the first shows of Aerosmith's and Motley Crue's  (co-headlined)  gig are in.  It seems to be unanimous that Aerosmith completely dominated the shared bill (show) with Motley Crue.  Steven Tyler, frontman for Aerosmith outperformed and outsang Vince Neil on every level.  Tyler's vocals and sound as well as stage presence were  near to perfection.  There had been some fear that Tyler's voice may not be as strong or may tire after his recent vocal chord surgery in late March of this year, but this proved to be needless worry - as some reports claimed his vocals and vocal performance to be as good or even superior to latter performances before his surgery.  On a positive note, Motley Crue were the louder of the two bands but their performance lacked anything noteworthy.  Even all their fan-favorite songs didn't seem to deliver that special something.  From Kickstart My Heart  to  Home Sweet Home,  as well as the over done  Girls, Girls, Girls  it all just seemed like the  same old situation..... 

Below is views of the stage that Motley Crue designed for this the "Route of All Evil" tour.  Pyrotechnics with fireworks and special effects.  Aerosmith opted for a much simpler stage design featuring extended long ramps allowing for Joe Perry and Steven Tyler to venture far out into the crowd, captured on a giant video screen. 

Concert Tickets went on sale today at 10 a.m.  for the new Tour "The Route of All Evil"  featuring Aerosmith with Motley Crue in Toronto, On.  The show will be at the Air Canada Centre  Mon Oct 2, 2006 7:30PM.
