Joey Kramer, Tom Hamilton, and Brad Whitford--rocked
audiences in 16 countries with electrifying performances. The Aerosmith

iconic hits “Love In A Elevator,” “Janie’s Got A Gun,“ “Don’t Wanna Miss
A Thing,” “Dude Looks Like A Lady,” “Walk This Way,” “Dream On,” “Sweet

"It's always an absolute hoot that leaves me howling at the moon,
performing at Donington we couldn't have had a better time on stage that
night,” says Steven Tyler. “I could feel the vibes of all the
greats pulsing through the stage like AC DC, Rage Against the Machine,
Metallica and so many more.”
“We have played Donington many times but this performance was one of our
best,” said Joe Perry. “Thanks to our fans who were there who
helped us make it a night to remember. We are proud to have it be part
of this theatrical series and it will give our fans who weren’t there
around the world a chance to relive an ass kicking night of rock and
roll.”
"We’re really proud and grateful to have been chosen to headline the
Download festival at Donington for 2014,” Tom Hamilton says. “It
was an awesome experience and I think this film captures it. Special
thanks to the insane fans who stuck with us through mud and rain.”
“Aerosmith are rock legends and I am very proud Cinema 1 is a part of
bringing this incredible band’s live concert performance to theaters
across America,” said Ray Carolin, CEO of Cinema 1. “I am certain their
fans are going to be blown away when they experience ‘Aerosmith Rocks
Donington 2014’.”
The first event in the “Classic Music Series,” “Aerosmith Rocks
Donington 2014,” will be followed monthly by a who’s who of rock and pop
which will be revealed shortly. Expected events include: a singer with a
history of hits since the ‘50s face-to-face with a modern pop mega-star,
the beloved progenitors of the jam band genre, one of the UK’s greatest
and most influential rock acts, a lauded guitar god and many, many more.

“Aerosmith fans won’t ‘wanna miss a thing’ with ‘Aerosmith Rocks
Donington 2014.’ Music aficionados across the nation have a year full of
