AEROSMITH - Bassist Tom Hamilton To Sit Out Remaining Australian Dates Due To Illness
April 29, 2013, 11 years ago
According to Yahoo!7, AEROSMITH bass player Tom Hamilton has pulled out of the band's Australian tour due to health issues and returned home to the US.
Hamilton was suffering from a chest infection and went home to recover. In his place, bass player David Hull was flown in from the US to take his place at Sunday's show at Melbourne's Sidney Myer Music Bowl.
Hamilton played with Aerosmith on Saturday, April 20 for the band's Stone Music Festival appearance and again in New Zealand last week.
Hull has filled in for Hamilton before. He is a founding member of DIRTY ANGELS and played with Joe Perry's side-project THE JOE PERRY PROJECT. Also a film and TV composer, his music is heard in the soundtrack to NCIS.
Hull will most likely stay with Aerosmith for the final two Australian shows. Hamilton will return to Aerosmith and continue the Global Warming tour when he recovers.
Aerosmith have two more shows in Brisbane and Melbourne to complete their tour.
