Its odd, but they originally wanted the ROlling Stones to do it. Funny, because although I may be able to picture it, I don't think it would work. There really are not that many bands that could fill Aerosmith's shoes. Creed doesn't fit really, at least from the songs I've heard. I guess Kiss could, but the reason they used Aerosmith was because Aerosmith has worked for them before, and they could afford to hire them as well. The Stones wouldn't do it, and that's how they got picked. (thank god! Two of my favorite things: Aerosmith and Disney together!!!)
Red Hot Chili Peppers, however, would not fit in my point of view. Although they are a great band.
How bout not just restricting it to one artist, but many well known artists? Don't even have to change the name (except the 'with Aerosmith" part). Besides being a royalty issue, its workable. Don't know what the pre-show would be. Hope they don't change it soon though!!!:king:
