Reflecting on their initial days, the group members said in a statement, ''It was 1970 when a spark of inspiration became Aerosmith. Thanks to you, our Blue Army, that spark caught flame and has been burning for over five decades. Some of you have been with us since the beginning and all of you are the reason we made rock ‘n’ roll history. ''
Formed in Boston in 1970, the group consists of Steven Tyler (vocals), Joe Perry (guitar), Tom Hamilton (bass), Joey Kramer (drums), and Brad Whitford (guitar).
Known as one of the best-selling American hard rock bands of all time, they have sold more than 150 million records worldwide.
