  On November 6, 1970, Aerosmith performed their first live show in Mendon, Massachusetts, which marked a pivotal moment in their nascent career. Just one year earlier, in 1970, they released their self-titled debut album, "Aerosmith," which included the iconic track "Dream On." The band was still in the early stages of establishing themselves within the rock music scene, navigating the backdrop of the burgeoning hard rock and blues-rock genres. "Dream On" would go on to become one of their signature songs, showcasing Steven Tyler's powerful vocals and the band's distinctive sound. The performance in Mendon not only highlights their grassroots beginnings but also foreshadowed their eventual rise to international fame, as they would later become one of the best-selling bands in history. This early live recording exemplifies the raw energy and potential that would propel Aerosmith to legendary status in the years to come.
