On new US Ambassador David Friedman’s first day on the job, he went to the Western Wall to pray. On his second, he was in Tel Aviv at an Aerosmith concert.

Channel 2 showed pictures of Friedman in casual clothes at the concert in Tel Aviv’s Yarkon park.

This comes a day after Friedman ran into Aerosmith lead singer Steven Tyler, who was also visiting the Western Wall.

Apparently, he hooked him up with tickets.
