Vocalist Steven Tyler seems to have quashed the rumours and assorted babble that he had quit AEROSMITH by joining THE JOE PERRY PROJECT on stage on November 9th in New York City at the Fillmore. They performed the Aerosmith classic 'Walk This Way', preceeded by an announcement from Tyler that he has not left the band.

Even with my volume turned up loud I still couldn't understand a single word he said.

Does anyone think that Joe stirred things a bit up on purpose?

Sooo, I went to see Joe Perry last night at Irving Plaza, totally randomly (won the tix). I like Aerosmith but I knew nothing of his solo music, so it wouldn't have been something I attended had I not won the tix but I was interested enough to enter the contest. The show was pretty great, it was awesome to see Joe in the flesh, dude's a total rock star and he looks awesome. The idiot moment? I left after the "last" song because I was exhausted and had quite a commute home and I totally miss the whole Tyler thing! Needless to say, I'm never leaving a show until it's totally over ever again. I'm kicking myself so hard!

Haha, it's not quite that bad.

Joe was just pissed that he hadn't been able to get in touch with Steven, so he put the press out on him. End of story. It's good that he's "back" however, because I don't think that Aerosmith would have survived without him.

The drama continues:

AEROSMITH SPLIT STILL ONJOE PERRY insists AEROSMITH's problems are far from over - he's not convinced bandmate STEVEN TYLER is still a part of the band, even though he joined the guitarist onstage in New York on Tuesday (10Nov09) and dismissed reports he had quit the rockers.
Perry admits he was stunned when Tyler turned up for his solo show, asked to join him onstage and then told fans he hadn't left Aerosmith.
He said, "I just want New York to know that I'm not leaving Aerosmith. The break-up - it just ain't true."
But he didn't hang around to talk to Perry after the show and discuss recent reports suggesting he wanted to go solo.
And now the guitarist admits Tyler's appearance onstage with him is a blur.
He tells Rolling Stone magazine, "There was all this commotion during our encore break and somebody said, ‘Steven is here.’ I was like, 'What?'"
Tyler asked to sit in with the group on the final encore of Walk This Way and Perry agreed, adding, "So he came up and sang and that was the last I saw of him."
Despite the latest news about the band turmoil, Perry insists Aerosmith is still considering touring and recording with a new singer: "He (Tyler) wants to take two years off from the band. The rest of the band wants to keep on working. We have so many different options to fill up that time. Anything is possible at this point."

From what I've read/heard, Steven jumped off the wagon quite a while ago, which has been a contentious point among the rest of the bandmembers. The "fall off the stage" thing was just tip of the iceberg. Also, if Tyler HAS left the band, it most likely would be met with a few "good riddance" remarks from his soon to be ex-bandmates.

Janet Charlton is reporting that there will be some sort of announcement today and that Steven is down too 112 pounds? He's tall.

Can a band still rock after losing their lead singer?

Recently, the rock band Aerosmith announced that it was “positively” seeking a new lead singer to replace Steven Tyler. Immediately following the news, sites like Yahoo! and Twitter saw a spike in searches for Steven Tyler, Aerosmith, and their hits. Joe Perry, lead guitarist for Aerosmith, vows to continue the band and is considering replacing Tyler with another lead vocalist.
