Ryan ChartrandGet ready to “walk this way” to Paso Robles when classic rockers Aerosmith headline at the California Mid-State Fair this summer as part of their 2007 world tour.
A spokesperson for the fair announced last Friday that the band, led by crooner Steven Tyler, will join other artists such as country music stars Martina McBride and Phil Vassar on the fair’s entertainment line-up. The announcement was made at the annual fair board of directors’ dinner.
Aerosmith is best known for ’70s jams such as “Sweet Emotion” and “Walk This Way.” Later popular ballads include “Janie’s Got A Gun” and “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing,” the hit single off the soundtrack for blockbuster movie “Armageddon.”
This year’s Mid-State Fair will run from July 25 to Aug. 5 at the Paso Robles Event Center. Ticket prices, sale dates and appearance dates have not yet been released.
