Another Reason to go to Vegas

From this morning's RAMP newsletter...

Following in the footsteps of Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, Elton John, Jennifer Lopez, Gwen Stefani, Cher and Celine Dion (to name a few), Aerosmith announced their own headlining residency in Las Vegas -- the show, aptly dubbed "Deuces Are Wild" is tied to the band's 50th anniversary and launches on Saturday, April 6, 2019 at the Park Theater at the new Park MGM on the Vegas strip. So far, 18 shows are scheduled through July 9, 2019.

As the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports, frontman Steven Tyler, guitarists Joe Perry and Brad Whitford, bassist Tom Hamilton and drummer Joey Kramer made the official announcement (and performed live) last Wednesday on NBC's Today show. As frontman Steven Tyler explained to Today's Hoda Kotb, "First we’re gonna move there... then, we're gonna shop there."
