Aerosmith announced that they have been forced to cancel the remaining dates on the fifth leg of their "Rockin' The Joint" sold-out North American tour (which has been ongoing since October 2005) in order for lead singer Steven Tyler to have surgery.
Accoring to a press release, Tyler's doctors advised him not to continue performing to give his voice time to recover. Tyler will be on total vocal rest and cannot perform for an extended period of time.
There's no question in my mind that these guys - who have become consumate professionals - regret cancelling and will make it up to their fans.
