Test your knowledge of Boston’s favorite retired rock band with the “Farewell Aerosmith” quiz.
If you’re like us, you held out hope that — despite last year’s “deferral” of the Peace Out farewell tour — we’d get another chance to see Aerosmith’s unadulterated rock energy on a stage in Boston.
Unfortunately with the band’s message Friday that it would “retire from the touring scene” in the wake of singer Steven Tyler’s larynx injury, it seems we’ll have to be content with our memories. And there are many of them: According to aerosmithsetlists.comthe band has played close to 200 times in Massachusetts alone, with about 70 of those being in Boston proper.
So what have we learned about Boston’s greatest rock band during its illustrious 50-year career? In honor of their final bow, take Boston.com’s “Farewell Aerosmith” quiz below to test your own knowledge of our very own bad boys of rock ‘n’ roll.
Heather Alterisio, Kristi Palma, Emily Turner and Jack Pickell contributed to this quiz.
