    In an odd way that makes sense.......look at the reaction to CVH when Dave came back.

    I imagine that it would be the same reaction to Steven coming back....a collective sigh of relief that that blow hard Spammy is gone.

    That horrendous move would make it Hagars 2nd felony.
    First, he tries replacing a singer who "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love" when it turns out it's all he fuckin' sings about. Tying a sweater around his fat neck, drinking milk, and singing constipational cheese like "Why Can't This Be Love", "Love Walks Around", and "When It's Love".
    Sam in Aerosmith singing "Walk This Way"?!??...walk like what, Sambo? with a little 2-inch pecker and writing songs about shitty sportscars and even shittier tequila?!?? Git tha' oudda hee-ya!
    His third and final offense would be to try and step in for Gibbons or Hill in ZZ Top. Not only would the trifecta be complete, but it would give us the satisfaction of puuting that little bastard out of his (and our) misery, and watch him get lethally injected and put to sleep.

    On second thought....Perry should call that fat little bastard. Just the mere thought of that prospect pleases me.

    Steve Tyler "Laid Off" Read all about it...
    Steven Tyler Laid Off From Aerosmith As Band's Jobless Rate Hits 20% | The Onion - America's Finest News Source

    quote from article:
    "We thank Steven for his many years of loyal service, and wish him the best of luck in all his future endeavors."

    Analysts speculate that the sector-wide layoff was a result of multiple factors, including redundancies in the singing-songwriting division, rising rehab fees that have cost the group millions, and a 34 percent decline in jump-kicks since 2003."

    WOW I'm in shock...

    blech!

    Classic Rock can confirm that Paul Rodgers was invited to be Aerosmith’s new frontman.

    This happened at the Classic Rock Roll Of Honour in London last November, when Aerosmith’s troubles with singer Steven Tyler were just beginning to surface.

    The awards were a star-studded affair. Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry and Rodgers were among the multitude of high-profile rockers in attendance.

    During a break in the ceremony Perry approached Scott Rowley, Classic Rock’s Editor In Chief, and asked him: “Can you introduce me to Paul Rodgers?”

    Amazingly, Perry had never met the Free/Bad Company/The Firm/Queen + Paul Rodgers frontman before.

    Rowley guided Perry to Rodgers’ table and the two stars engaged in conversation while Rowley chatted to Rodgers’ wife, Cynthia.

    However, Classic Rock’s Jerry Ewing, who was sitting at the table, overheard Perry make a direct approach to Rodgers about replacing Tyler in Aerosmith.

    Ewing recalls:

    “Basically Scott came over with Joe Perry who had asked to be introduced to Paul. After an initial introduction Perry started saying how Rodgers was his second-favourite vocalist of all time.

    “Rodgers typically asked who Perry’s favourite was, and Perry said: ‘The lead singer of Aerosmith.’ Cue some embarrassed laughter.

    “The talk then moved on to what Perry was doing and he said that he was doing the Joe Perry Project and they were looking to come over here and tour, at which point Rodgers mooted the idea of them supporting Bad Company on their just-announced shows.

    “The next thing, Perry is starting to tell Rodgers that they have problems with Tyler and that they intend to carry on regardless – and how great it would be if Rodgers took the slot, and would he be interested in trying out?

    “If I remember correctly there were the usual ‘how flattering’ platitudes but no real commitment, as you’d expect, nor refusal.”

    Classic Rock knows of two more major names who have been approached to sing for Aerosmith.

    We’ll be revealing another of those names on Classic Rock tomorrow (Thursday, January 28), with the final one to follow on Friday. So stay tuned to the Classic Rock website.

    The March issue of Classic Rock, which goes on sale next Wednesday, February 3, features Joe Perry on the cover and contains more exclusive Aero-revelations.

    Either these guys are making this shit up or Joe Perry has truly flipped his lid.


    Following Classic Rock’s exclusive story that Paul Rodgers was asked by guitarist Joe Perry to be Aerosmith’s new singer, we can reveal the name of another star sounded out by Perry to fill Steven Tyler’s shoes: Billy Idol.

    A source tells us:

    “Joe had been approaching a few people about replacing Steven and he invited Billy to his show at the House Of Blues in Los Angeles.

    “Joe said he wanted to talk to Billy about joining Aerosmith, because the band were having problems with Steven.”

    The gig – which featured the Joe Perry Project – took place on November 24 in West Hollywood. It was reviewed in the December 2009 edition of Classic Rock (issue No.139).

    However, in a strange turn of events, Idol failed to respond to Perry’s invitation.

    “As far as I know Idol did not show up due to having a cold,” says our source.

    Whether this means the door remains open for Idol to try out for the Aerosmith job at a future date is unclear.

    Besides Paul Rodgers and Billy Idol, Classic Rock knows the name of a third high-profile singer who has been asked to replace Tyler.

    We’ll be revealing his name on Classic Rock tomorrow (Friday, January 29). So stay tuned to the Classic Rock website.

    The March issue of Classic Rock, which goes on sale next Wednesday, February 3, features Joe Perry on the cover and contains more exclusive Aero-revelations.

    Sounds like he's conducting psychological warfare on Tyler.

    These guys are so inappropriate, who's next Harry Connick, Jr?

    Why do Aerosmith need to continue without Tyler (I know... why do they need to continue at all)? Can't Perry just do his Joe Perry project thing until Tyler is ready to sing/perform again? Is anyone interested in seeing Aerosmith without Steven Tyler... I don't think so. Do they have contractual obligations that they need to fulfill as Aerosmith?

    With that being said... I'd like to hear Perry, Whitford, Hamilton & Kramer do something with that cat who sings for The Answer... that might be some good stuff... but don't try to bill it as Aerosmith.

    Jizzy's voice is still as good as it's ever been.

    Not sure how he would be on the ballads but Aerosmith use lots of tapes and shit anyway.

    The thing is, at this point I'm not in the least bit thrilled about seeing Aerosmith with Tyler. The same dull and predictable set list, the same going through the motions, ect. And the argument of the other four going forward without him in anticipation of the 40th anniversary holds water like a cheese grater. So the paying audience gets to watch a stand-in in order for these guys to keep from getting rusty?

    At least Cornell is smart enough to know this would be a bad idea...

    Perry to Cornell: ‘Do You Want To Join Aerosmith?’
    gbarton / News, Top Posts / 29/01/2010 12:42pm

    Following Classic Rock’s exclusive news that both Paul Rodgers and Billy Idol were sounded out by guitarist Joe Perry to be Aerosmith’s new singer, we can reveal the name of another star who Perry believed could replace Steven Tyler: Chris Cornell.

    A source close to the Aerosmith camp tells Classic Rock:

    “Joe approached Chris Cornell and asked him if he would be interested in the Aerosmith job, because the band were running out of patience with Steven.

    “But Cornell, to his credit, didn’t take Joe’s request very seriously. He thought he was joking and was surprised when Joe said he wasn’t.

    “In fact, I overheard Cornell telling Joe: ‘Fuck off, can you imagine how ridiculous that would be?!’


    “In any case, Cornell told Joe he was committed to Soundgarden’s reunion, so it [Cornell joining Aerosmith] could never happen.”

    If you missed our previous stories about Joe Perry’s ongoing hunt for a new Aerosmith singer, you can read about Paul Rodgers here and Billy Idol here.

    The March issue of Classic Rock, which goes on sale next Wednesday, February 3, features Joe Perry on the cover and contains more exclusive Aero-revelations.

    If Perry et al need the cash, why don't they look into what Gene did with the Kissology DVDs as a stop gap. I'd buy a 3 dvd box with the '78 Texas Jam, the '78 California Jam and some other cleaned up 70s gigs.

    Following Classic Rock’s exclusive news that both Paul Rodgers and Billy Idol were sounded out by guitarist Joe Perry to be Aerosmith’s new singer, we can reveal the name of another star who Perry believed could replace Steven Tyler: Chris Cornell.

    This is beginning to sound like the movie Major League, wherein the Cleveland Indians were so awful that nobody wanted to work for them.

    Lou Brown: Tire World...
    Charlie Donovan: Lou? This is Charlie Donovan. How would you like to manage the Indians this year?
    Lou Brown: Oh, I don't know...
    Charlie Donovan: What do you mean, you don't know? This is your chance to manage in the big leagues.
    Lou Brown: Let me get back to you, will ya, Charlie? I got a guy on the other line asking about some white walls.

    I guess this "Classic Rock" rag hasn't heard that Soundgarden is back together, if they thought Chris Cornell was going to join somebody else's band. Besides, I doubt he would do that again, after Audioslave, even if he wasn't already occupied.

    “In any case, Cornell told Joe he was committed to Soundgarden’s reunion, so it [Cornell joining Aerosmith] could never happen.”

    aerosmith ain't aerosmith without both of the toxic twins.
    therefore they should retire and not destroy their already somewhat tarnished legacy.
    once upon a time they were a great fucking band.
    nowadays they just seriously suck ass, and have sucked ass for the past 15 years or so.
    it's time for them to retire.
    'nuff said.
    end of story.

    They should have retired in 1984. Anything after "Done With Mirrors" wasn't really Aerosmith.

    Agreed. Definitely the last Aerosmith album that I enjoyed end to end.

    done with mirrors was 1986, ford.
    after that, they got sober.
    and sucked thereafter.
    aerosmith were a better band when they were fucked up on heroin.

    Wrong again dumbass, DWM was in '85. Please get your facts straight before you speak. For someone who Rainman's his entire existence, yet still manages to fuck up the timeline, the LAST thing you should do is try to state anyone elses. I've corrected you in the sports forum as well (remember when you were boasting your knowledge and loyalty regarding The AZ Cards and I not only corrected the year they arrived from St. Louis but that they were also the PHOENIX Cards for a cupla years?) so STFU!!!

    Besides, DWM was definitely no "Classic" Aerosmith but it had it's moments. "Let the Music Do the Talking" was pretty damn good. Unfortunately, your "music" sends people running away. Hence, you'd never understand.

    Also, 1987's Permanent Vacation actually had a cupla decent tracks on it like "Hangman Jury" and a cover of The Beatles "I'm Down."

    Moronic buffoon.

No one is going to replace Steven Tyler in Aerosmith because he is the voice of Aerosmith. Whenever you hear his voice you associate it with Aerosmith. Besides, what is the point of getting a new singer at this stage of their career? These guys are nearly old enough to draw Social Security for christsakes! In this age of rap, hip hop, and throw away pop is a new singer going to make them any more relevant with their style of music?

    They gave the world masterpieces like "Draw The Line", "Toys In The Attic", and "Rocks". Albums of that caliber aren't in them anymore.
    It's a hard thing to...kinda like demanding the car keys back from grandpa after one too many times of driving on the wrong side of the road, but they're done.

    They should just be happy with their legendary status, their awesome contribution to rock music, and just call it a day.

    A series of side projects would be a more dignified solution, rather than diluting Aerosmith's record......

    They should have called it a day when the ran out of ideas and had other people write for them (even though I liked nothing they did after sobering up).

    Is there anybody here that honestly has an interest in seeing Aerosmith record another song, never mind an album??

    At this point, they don't even need to come up with anything new, as there are over a dozen unfinished tunes in the can (available on several bootlegs and at Youtube) that sound better than anything they've put out since Pump.

    And if you compare the tracks, the original Perry version wins in a landslide. The Project version is raw and exiting, whereas the Aerosmith version seems to just plod along march-style, never really achieving lift-off.

    I agree with all of the above. But weren't they still "using" during DWM? I thought PV was their first straight album...

    While hacking up my lungs last night, I watched that silly Metal Show on VH1 Classic. Perry was on and mentioned that he thought that DWM was their low point and they rushed through it.

    That's true. DWM was the reunion album (after the regrettable scab guitarists era) but they were still on drugs. That title "Done With Mirrors" has more than one meaning.
