Description:

* The eleventh show in the USA on this tour and the first time the Hollywood Vampires performed in the state of Michigan. The Vampires made a second show 3 days later on July 16, at the DTE Energy Music Theatre, in Clarkston.
* The fourth time the Vampires played in a Casino Resort, and second time not inside the building. The first time was on May 17, 2016 at the Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, New York, the second on July 8 at the Casino Rama Resort, in Orillia, Ontario, Canada and a third time at the Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino, in Niagara Falls, New York on July 9. On this day, the Hollywood vampires was the third band to play at the “The Outdoor Summer Concert Series” at the Soaring Eagle Casino & Resort. Although the place has a smaller indoor venue, this one is specially for small concerts. The outdoor venue is located outside the casino resort in a large hill for 10,000 people. During the Hollywood Vampires the place was completely filled by fans. The first outdoor show outside a casino, happened on the parking lot of the Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino, on July 9.
* The second show without Joe Perry. After Joe got sick suffering from dehydration and exhaustion which led him to collapse during the second song on the show on July 10, and return to California to rest properly, the Vampires continued the tour without him. Although Joe was not replaced by any other person, Tommy Henriksen worked hard on his guitar skills to assume as lead guitar and give a good show. The Vampires kept paying homage to him, adding the “JP” sticker on their clothes, a photo on the backdrop video and just like the fans in the audience, sent best wishes to him during the songs.
* The first time the Hollywood Vampires had a band opening on this tour. On this day, the rock band, Cheap Trick opened for the Hollywood Vampires and Johnny even watched the concert from the side of the stage with his bodyguard Malcolm Connolly.
* The sixth time the setlist is changed and rearranged, and the third time the show is shortened. On this day, The Beatles’ “Come Together” was the 6th song to be performed with Robin Zander, instead of the 10th. Without Joe Perry, his cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Stop Messin’ Around”, the 14th on the setlist, was not performed, and instead substituted by Motörhead’s “Ace of Spades” which is used the 16th song to be performed. Apart of this, the setlist remained the same from the previous day, as well closing the show with 20 songs, instead of 21.
