Aerosmith, known as the "bad boys of rock" from Boston with roots in the 1970s, will bring their blues and rock chops to the Maui County Fair, at 7 p.m. Sept. 26 at the Maui War Memorial Stadium.

The group features Steven Tyler on lead vocals, keyboards, piano, harmonica, percussion; Joe Perry, on lead and rhythm guitars and background vocals; Brad Whitford, on rhythm and lead guitars; Tom Hamilton, on bass, rhythm guitar and background vocals; and Joey Kramer, on drums, percussion and background vocals. All but Whitford are founding members of Aerosmith, which has been inducted into the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame.

Tickets are $125 and $85 for reserved seats, $65 for general admission.

Tickets go on sale for Maui Arts and Cultural Center members at 10 a.m. Monday at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center box office, online at www.mauiarts.org, and by phone at 808-242-7469. Ticket sales for the general public begin at 10 a.m. Thursday.

On the day of the performance, gates will open at 5 p.m., with food and beverages available for purchase.

The group will be on O'ahu next month for a private performance at the Les Murakami Stadium on the University of Hawai'i-Manoa campus; that corporate gig prohibits an additional Honolulu show.
