What better way to spend 420 Day, than with Joe Perry and friends? That’s exactly what a lot of folks did, this Friday evening. Joe and his friends, who included fellow Aerosmith axman, Brad Whitford and featured Extreme’s Gary Cherone on vocals, hosted a crowd of New Jersey fans at the Music Box in Atlantic City. The band played for 2 hours and covered material by Aerosmith, The Joe Perry Project, select cover tunes, as well as music from his latest release, “Sweetzerland Manifesto”.

The band only only had 3 dates set. Boston’s House of Blues on 4/18, Hampton Beach Casino, in New Hampshire and The Music Box, in Atlantic City. They seemed to pack all the energy from a whole tour, into these 3 dates. They sounded great and tore the place apart! Were you one of the lucky few to see the shows??

Setlist:

Let the music do the talking
Toys in the attic
Pandora’s box
Shaking’ my cage
Aye aye aye
Last child
Sick and tired
Combination
One way street
Stop messin’ around
Seasons of wither
Eve of destruction
Adam’s apple
Won’t let me go
Quake
East coast, West coast
Train kept a rollin’

Encore:
Night time
Walk this way
