The affected dates were to begin Aug. 14 in Raleigh, N.C., hitting 12 cities through Sept. 7; all will be rescheduled. Shows from Sept. 9 to Dec. 9 remain unchanged. This marks the second setback to the Aerosmith tour; 18 earlier dates were postponed following a knee injury to Steven Tyler in April.

“Youth Knows No Pain”

Lykke Li | 2011

“Like on 'Youth Knows No Pain' — we are the ones that should demonstrate, because we can take it,” Likke Li said. “We can pierce ourselves, take Ecstasy, dance all night and still go to work at our McDonald's jobs.” Despite the hedonistic sentiment in the song, the Swedish singer also admitted in hindsight her youth had repercussions. “I remember when I was 18-19 and feeling that I know it all,” Li said. “I always feel that I know it all. But that song is about realizing you don’t, and reflecting, ‘Boy, if I only knew what would follow.’”
