The official Twitter account of the band also made an announcement with the post, “Sibilance... Sibilance" Surprise... We were "worthy enough" to reunite with our friends Wayne and Garth!”

Here’s everything you need to know about the much-hyped virtual reunion:

Date

Aerosmith’s ‘Wayne’s World’ reunion is happening on Monday, December 7, 2020.

Time

As the official tweet of Aerosmith confirms, fans will be able to catch the virtual reunion at 9 am PT/12 pm ET. “The first time we met Wayne and Garth. Watch us #ReunitedApart with Wayne's World Monday 12/7 9am PT/12PM ET on YouTube!”

Where to stream

Aerosmith’s ‘Wayne’s World’ reunion will be up for streaming on YouTube. To be more specific, viewers can catch it on actor and comedian Josh Gad’s YouTube channel. The virtual reunion is being organised in support of the First Responder’s Children’s Foundation.

What is it about

The reunion is part of the ‘Reunited Apart’ series which Josh Gad started during the lockdown. Josh Gad, who is most recognized as the voice of the snowman Olaf in Disney's ‘Frozen’ series, had reunited stars from classic films such as ‘Back to the Future’, ‘Ghostbusters’ and ‘Ferris Bueller's Day Off’, among a few others in the first season. Season 2 premiere will now see Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler and Joe Perry joining the lead actors of two ‘Wayne’s World’ movies.

The first ‘Wayne’s World’ film was the second film based on a ‘Saturday Night Live’ sketch, following ‘The Blues Brothers’ in 1980, as reported by NME. ‘Wayne’s World’ starred Myers and Carvey as rock music knuckleheads Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar respectively. Aerosmith had appeared in one of the SNL sketches, but they did not appear in the first movie. However, the rock legends then joined the cast of ‘Wayne’s World 2’ in 1993, in which they performed ‘Dude (Looks Like A Lady)’ and ‘Shut Up and Dance’ during an onstage appearance.

How’s the pre-buzz

Fans were quick to react to Aerosmith’s announcement about ‘Wayne’s World’ reunion. A lot of fans took to Twitter to share their excitement. One user stated, “All you guys have cool stamped on you.” One posted, “Can't wait to see all you guys!” Another added, “Love this for so many reasons!” One individual asserted, “One of the greatest skits in SNL history.” One fan said, “Man, the nostalgia is real.”
