Default ALS challenge - Aerosmith nominates FM and others

Aerosmith donates part of concert proceeds to ALS foundation and takes ice bucket challenge, passes it on to FM and others:

Published on Aug 25, 2014
Tonight in Texas, Aerosmith fulfilled Motley Crue's #ALSIceBucketChallenge and challenged Quentin Tarantino, Fleetwood Mac, Cheap Trick, the Dalai Lama, plus Aerosmith and Slash's road crews to do the same.

Now, I can definitely see Mick doing this. Not sure about the others. Well, the others would give a monetary donation. Don't think all 5 would do the bucket.

Stevie would never! It would be funny to see her with wet hair though.

It's cool they picked FM. I wonder if Steve Tyler's hung out with his pals Mick & Chris et al recently.

Of all the things that will never happen, this is number one. Never. Money donated, (or pried out of hands) and that will be it. Nope. Micks' restaurant even did the challenge, but not Mick himself.

I would pay a large sum of money to see Stevie do this! Actually, all five of them would be hilarious.

That would be great if Stevie and FM gets the bucket.

Mick probably love to have it done.

HA! Someone in the FM camp hopefully has a clue about social media and actually hears about this. Probably their kids will have to tell them about it!!

Red face This is the...

BEST one out there PERIOD, since Jason (Jason Becker - played in Cacophony and in the David Lee Roth Band) has had ALS for the past 25 years and can no longer speak or PLAY guitar. His video is sad to watch, but it is an eye opener as to what this disease can cause to a person.

Not a chance in hell.

The mental image is very gratifying, though.

Not to take away from the need for ALS research, but if they did do the challenge, it would be a great way to get a little viral youtube buzz ahead of their tour.

Exactly. I've seen people do it who I never thought would (Oprah) that nothing would shock me.

I could see Mick and Christine doing this; John, only if everyone else did. Lindsey, back in the day, but not now. Stevie, never.
