Aerosmith rocks the face off of Fiddler's Green
Timeless Rockers Put On An Epic Show
August 1, 2009
Rock bands that are as old as Aerosmith usually have seen their day, and the energy and stage presence is, should we say, a little dumbed down from its former glory days, but still a fun way to see those old bands we all loved. Aerosmith is a different story. These guys are timeless, both in their music and in their live show. And this was solidified on Saturday night as the band took the stage, along with ZZ Top to rock the pants off of fans both young and old!
Fiddler's Green was packed to the brim as fans waited in anticipation for all of the classic tunes Aerosmith has cranked out over the years. Even then there was no preparation for the assault of rocking goodness that emanated from the stage that night.
The legendary, ZZ Top started things off and cranked out the favorites every classic rock station in America plays on a daily basis. Oh don’t worry, the beards are still two feet long, and the two guitarists still sway in sync just like you remember. Adorning cheap sunglasses they played all the hits including, but not limited to Legs, Gimme All Your Lovin’, and of course, Cheap Sunglasses.
Then it was some time for a little Aerosmith. Lead singer Stephen Tyler still has the energy and stage presence of a 25-year-old rock star as he belted out every song fans wanted to hear. An extension to the stage brought gave the band access to the middle of the fans as they rocked Love In An Elevator, Dream On, Livin’ On The Edge, and pretty much all the other hits the band has created over the ages. ZZ Top guitarists joined the band for a 20 minute jam session at one point, proving these guys still have plenty of rocking left in them!
