Aerosmith have kicked off their long-awaited Peace Out farewell tour with a show at the 21,000-capacity Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, PA.

The band played an 18-song set, opening with Back In The Saddle and continuing with a set that mixed early classics and MTV-era hits, alongside a cover of Fleetwood Mac's Stop Messin' Around, which has regularly appeared on the setlist since being debuted on 1993's Get A Grip tour. Aerosmith encored with Dream On and Walk This Way. Full setlist below.

In the hours since the show Aerosmith have released some official photographs shot by the band's social media manager Aaron Perry, while a number of fan-shot videos have also emerged.

The next date on the Peace Out tour is at the PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh, PA, on September 6. Support comes from the Black Crowes.
