Toxic Twin Towers Ball

The Toxic Twin Towers Ball was a rock concert staged at Wembley Stadium, England on 26 June 1999. It was headlined by Aerosmith and also featured live sets from Lenny Kravitz, Stereophonics, The Black Crowes and 3 Colours Red. It was called The Toxic Twin Towers Ball because, at the time, Wembley Stadium was famous for its Twin Towers; also two members of the band Aerosmith were called the Toxic Twins due to their use of recreational drugs (Steven Tyler and Joe Perry).

Part of the 1999 Nine Lives Tour.

Famous quotes containing the words toxic, twin, towers and/or ball:

    America today is capable of terrific intolerance about smoking, or toxic waste that threatens trout. But only a deeply confused society is more concerned about protecting lungs than minds, trout than black women.
    Garry Wills (b. 1934)

    If they be two, they are two so
    As stiff twin compasses are two;
    Thy soul, the fixed foot, makes no show
    To move, but doth if th’ other do.
    John Donne (1572–1631)

    A great city, whose image dwells in the memory of man, is the type of some great idea. Rome represents conquest; Faith hovers over the towers of Jerusalem; and Athens embodies the pre-eminent quality of the antique world, Art.
    Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)

    When Adam delved and Eve span,
    Who was then the gentleman?
    —John Ball (hanged 1381)
