Have Guitar, Will Travel Tour is a musical tour of the Aerosmith-guitarist Joe Perry and his band, the Joe Perry Project.
The tour is in support of the album Have Guitar, Will Travel.
The new singer Hagen Grohe, who hails from Germany, was discovered by Joe's wife Billie Perry on YouTube in the beginning of 2009. When Hagen was contacted by Perry, he thought it was a joke when in actuality it was not. The album was released in October and the tour is planned to "hold strong",as Perry says, North America in winter 2009/2010, but also Europe and Japan through summer 2010.
The setlist features around thirty percent of the album Have Guitar, Will Travel, as well as a handful of classic Aerosmith hits including: "Let the Music Do the Talking" (alternate JPP version), "Walkin' The Dog", "Dream On", "Combination" and "Walk This Way".
