Aerosmith Says Steven Tyler Has Quit

The sweet emotions that the members of Aerosmith once felt towards each other have apparently come to an end. In an interview with The Las Vegas Sun, the group’s lead guitarist, Joe Perry, said that the singer Steven Tyler quit after a concert in Abu Dhabi. “Steven quit as far as I can tell,” Mr. Perry told The Sun. “I don’t know any more than you do about it.”

Mr. Perry was responding to remarks that Mr. Tyler made in an interview with Classic Rock, a British music magazine, in which Mr. Tyler said that he was preparing to focus on a solo career. “I don’t know what I’m doing yet,” Mr. Tyler said, “but it’s definitely going to be something Steven Tyler: working on the brand of myself - Brand Tyler.”

Mr. Perry said he had had difficulty confirming this with Mr. Tyler because the singer doesn’t return his phone calls. “He’s notorious for that,” Mr. Perry told The Sun. “That’s one thing I’ve learned to live with. I try to overlook it.”

Aerosmith canceled several concerts over the summer amid an injury-plagued season after Mr. Tyler fell from a stage on Aug. 5. A publicist for the band did not immediately return a request for comment.

I know this may surprise a lot of folks, but I am, and always have been an fan of Aerosmith. I love good Rock and Roll, and Aerosmith fell into that definition for me.

Good Rock and Roll, that immediately rules out Techno and Punk. As far as I am concerned Rap is CRAP. For me, it’s AC/DC, KISS, Led Zeppelin, Heart, ZZ Top, Blood Sweat and Tears, The Eagles, Eric Clapton and many more.

Old Rock, old C&W, traditional C&W, not the wannabe rock stars that didn’t make the grade, but people like Alan Jackson and George Strait, that is good music. And today I am needing to take a break from politics and Ft. Hood.

I am going to kick back and listen to some great music and try to get my head back together as I lower my stress, blood pressure and sugar levels.
