The latest development is the kickoff of the two‑night "California Dream On: Aerosmith & Friends" concerts at the Hollywood Bowl on October 29, 2026, where Aerosmith performed a six‑song set backed by Dave Grohl on drums and featured guest appearances by Johnny Depp on guitar and Joey Kramer returning to the kit for the finale. The event, billed as a celebration of the band’s 55‑year career, was sold out and concluded with fireworks.
The shows mark the first full‑band performances since the group’s 2023 "Peace Out… Farewell Tour" was halted after frontman Steven Tyler suffered vocal‑cord injuries. Alongside Aerosmith, the lineup included Billy Idol, Guns N’ Roses, the Black Crowes, Heart, and Eric Church, among others, creating a festival‑style tribute to the Boston rock icons.
