Happy Veterans Day, Aerosmith!

Just when I was jonesin' over Aerosmith's 14th acrimonious break-up, it turns Steven Tyler is NOT quitting Aerosmith- except maybe Aerosmith IS quitting on Steven Tyler, (which is kind of like the Looney Tunes disowning Bugs Bunny: DUMB.) Or they might not. Perry and Tyler will each give three more conflicting statements before I finish this post, and these guys have never had coherence on their side.
TOP: Steven Tyler, Joey Kramer, Joe Perry. BOTTOM: Tom Hamilton and Brad Whitford. Or Brad Whitford and Tom Hamilton, who cares?
This is all karmic payback- Aerosmith ALREADY went through this, except last time the exiled Toxic Twin was Perry, replaced with a teamster called Jimmy Crespo- don't worry, neither he or the albums he's in will be on any Aerosmith test. Only an Aerosmith geek like me recalls.
In honor of those fallen by the side, here's Jimmy Crespo fantastically fucking up the guitar in "Back in The Saddle". Well, Tyler is fucking up his parts too, but consider at this point in the band's career his body is made of 2/3 heroin: it's patriotic, the way he's still standing up.


Yeah, I'm uncool for liking Aerosmith, but I deal. Your mom blew Steven Tyler in '77 so how do you live with THAT?
