Aerosmith’s Challenge Following Up KISS
Aerosmith bassist Tom Hamilton spoke with Jason Bracelin of the Phoenix New Times about the tough duties the band has trying to perform after the visual show KISS puts on during their current U.S. tour. “Any band is going to be challenged by the fact that the band going on before them has these dramatic theatrical visuals going on, because you see the way the audience responds to it,” Hamilton says. “Everybody says, Oh, it’s all about the music,’ but you see the audience love this stuff and have fun watching it, and you want them to have fun watching you, so maybe you think, Oh sh**, what do we do now?’ But we’re really comfortable with how well we’re playing, and we’ve got different aspects of our show that get us out there, too.”
