From the moment fans step into the vault, they will feel what it’s like to be on stage with Aerosmith. Fans can walk on the actual stage flooring (also known as the “Marley”) that was used by the band on their previous tours. The exhibit also is a living timeline of their career, featuring everything from Steven Tyler’s high school drumset, the band’s first press kit, original lyrics for “Walk This Way,” over 20 guitars played during iconic performances, an array of Steven Tyler’s signature scarfs, and some of their most notable awards including one of their GRAMMYs.
There are also five giant dynamic original portraits of each band member that were painted by world-renowned performance artist Denny Dent in his “two-fisted art attack” trademark style he also has used in portraits of other rock icons Jimi Hendrix, Bruce Springsteen, and Miles Davis, among others. Each band member also personally contributed items to the exhibit that reflect their mark on this iconic group.
VIP Packages for the museum tour also are still available where, in addition to the museum tour, fans can meet Steven Tyler and Joe Perry and take part in a pre-show Q&A with Joey Kramer, Tom Hamilton and Brad Whitford.
