Aerosmith returns to the UK to rock the 02 Arena this summer

The string of ten shows will be the first that notorious American rockers Steve, Joe, Tom, Brad and Joey have played in Europe for three years. The 02 gig is expected to be one of the live music events of the decade, as the rock giants deliver bucketloads of rock nostalgia with hip gyrating anthems like Walk This Way.

The Cocked, Locked and Ready to Rock tour was announced in February 2010, and will kick off in Sweden in June, eventaully including venues in the UK, Romania, Greece, Holland, Belgium, Spain, France, Czech Republic and finally, Italy.

Putting recent squabbles, rumours of splits, injuries, and rehab behind them, the famous line-up will show a united front as they bring their classic brand of rock to their fans.

Singer and frontman Steve Tyler said of the tour:
"Back by popular demand, with more spit and fire than ever before, we're coming across the pond and parting the waters as we go!"
