Kylie Minogue, "Golden" (BMG)

It was bound to happen eventually. Don't even pretend to be surprised: Kylie Minogue, the pop goddess from Australia, has gone country. Hey, if Justin Timberlake and Steven Tyler can do it, why not the woman behind "Locomotion"?

Front man Steven Tyler and Joe Perry both say the band will keep playing. That's despite the title of their tour, 'Aero-Vederci Baby!' — which seems to play on "arrivederci," Italian for "goodbye till we meet again."

That appeared to hint it could be a farewell tour for the band after their run of dates in Europe.

LONDON (AP) — Aerosmith's Joe Perry says the band's European dates will not be canceled in the wake of Monday's deadly attack at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England.

Steven Tyler's gone country. But the Aerosmith frontman hasn't forgotten his rock-hero past. So on his solo tour, he'll play a set that mixes the old ("Sweet Emotion," "Jaded") with songs off his recently released solo debut, "We're All Somebody From Somewhere." We spoke recently with the rocker about Aerosmith and his foray into country.

Q: How are you feeling now that this record is finally out?

NEW YORK (AP) — He's led the bad-boy rock band Aerosmith for decades, written a book, learned to parasail, and is the father of four children. But Steven Tyler had at least one more goal before hitting 70: his first solo album.

"I just thought, 'Instead of (an) Aerosmith album, why don't I just write something here and see what I get?'" Tyler said by phone from his new home in Nashville, Tennessee. "It was something I've always wanted to do."
