Aerosmith 
Post Gazette Pavilion
Burgettstown, PA
6/30/2001

While many bands have scored their hits and faded away, Aerosmith offers a colorful past and from the looks of their recent accomplishments, a vibrant future. 

Most hard rock bands can "Dream On" when it comes to crossover success today, these rock 'n roll vets have accomplished the task and broken boundaries that are likely to make most record execs cringe.  They've scored a #1 Billboard single, lead the revolution on the fusion of rock and rap genres, and most importantly they come back stronger with each new release...

Their latest album, Just Push Play comprised most of the set as expected, with "Beyond Beautiful," as an opener and "Jaded" and "Just Push Play" following close behind.  

With news of guitarist Slash (Slash's Snakepit, Guns 'n Roses) being a special guest in the house that evening, it seemed appropriate that he'd join in for "Mama Kin," seeing that GNR had successful taken on a cover of the song several years ago.

But, instead, that song served as a diversion as the band prepared for their secured attempt to deliver those on the lawn a virtual front row seat - for a few songs anyway. 

While the law crowd surely appreciated the great view, being among those who dished out close to $100 for a great view of the main stage, it was clear that the sound for the trio of classics "Song and Dance," "Dream On," and "Chip Away at the Stone," was less than desirable in the pavilion.

When the band return to the main stage, they continued on with more classics like "Walk This Way" and "Sweet Emotion" and a few newer songs including "Pink" from their Nine Lives release, and "I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing."  Surprising additions were "Big Ten Inch Record" and "Seasons of Wither," while "Rag Doll" and "Dude (Looks Like a Lady)" were excluded.

Incidentally, Slash did make an appearance, surprising the audience during an encore jam of "Train Kept A Rollin'".
