#tbt Aerosmith Rocks The Bangor Waterfront
It was a great night, made a little bittersweet with the band's recent announcement.
Labor Day Weekend of 2022, was, to say the least, EPIC. Friday and Saturday night, country superstar, Luke Combs, was in town, then Sunday, maybe the biggest show that Bangor has seen yet, rocked the stage at the Maine Savings Amphitheater.
They were playing their first show since February of 2020, and without a doubt, Aerosmith got "Back In The Saddle Again" to a capacity crowd.
If you have seen them before, you should thank your lucky stars, because Aerosmith recently announced that it will embark on a farewell “Peace Out” tour, that starts in September, and includes a New Year’s Eve show at TD Garden in Boston.
The good news is that they say the final tour could go on for a while, so maybe, just maybe, they will come to visit us again.
But getting back to last year, they served up a great mix from their massive catalog of classic tunes, they did not disappoint.

To say the line to get in was long would be an understatement. The crowd of people went all the way down the street to Geaghan's!
Of course, there were lots of fan-shot videos posted from a night that none of us will soon forget!
Cheers to one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Proud to say that I have seen them 4 times, but the Bangor show will always have a special place in my heart!
Rock on...
