Aerosmith’s farewell tour hits Tampa along with The Black Crowes

TAMPA (BLOOM) — It’s time to pull out those band tees and dust off the old record player because Aerosmith, the rock legends that have kept our parents (and let’s be honest, us too) jamming for over five decades, are hitting the road one last time. And they’re making a pit stop in Tampa! Yes, you heard it right. The “Peace Out” tour, which also features The Black Crowes fresh from their musical hiatus, is slated to rock the AMALIE Arena on February 14, 2025, at 7:00 p.m. Talk about a rockin’ Valentine’s Day!

For those who’ve been living under a rock (pun intended), Aerosmith has not only snagged four GRAMMY® awards but also rocked their way to diamond certification. Joining them are The Black Crowes, who are back with their first album in nearly 15 years, “Happiness Bastards.” It’s like the rock gods decided to throw us a bone during these trying times.

This tour isn’t just a trip down memory lane; it’s an immersive experience. Thanks to THX’s Certified Live! high-fidelity experience, the quality of sound will make you feel like you’re in the studio with the band. The goal? To ensure every riff, drum beat, and iconic note hits you right in the feels.

For those who snagged tickets for the original dates, fret not. Your tickets are still good. New tickets, along with a variety of VIP experiences (because who doesn’t want to rock out in style?), go on sale April 12 at 10:00 a.m. on Ticketmaster. Prices range from “I just want to be in the same room” to “I might have to sell my beloved guitar” levels, but can you really put a price on history?

Aerosmith’s “Peace Out” tour promises to be an electrifying celebration of their monumental career, with every show paying homage to their groundbreaking hits. After all, it’s not just a concert; it’s a once-in-a-lifetime event. As the tour gears up to crisscross North America, hitting every iconic arena from the Kia Forum in Los Angeles to Madison Square Garden in New York, it’s clear this is more than a farewell. It’s a victory lap for America’s greatest rock band.

And let’s not overlook The Black Crowes. Their return with “Happiness Bastards” is nothing short of a rock ‘n’ roll revival. Call it brotherly love or a twist of fate; their comeback is a reminder of why we fell in love with rock in the first place. Raw, gritty, and unapologetically loud.

So, mark your calendars, set your alarms, and maybe start practicing your air guitar. Aerosmith and The Black Crowes are about to give Tampa a night to remember. It’s going to be epic, historic, and if we’re lucky, a little bit crazy. After all, we’re talking about Aerosmith peacing out with a bang – and they’re not going quietly.
