Rumors of the band possibly breaking up started to surface after Aerosmith had to cancel its summer tour when Tyler fell off stage and injured himself during a concert in South Dakota.
According to a news release from Tom Moffatt Productions, Tyler told Moffatt after signing the contract he’s "feeling great and everything is back to normal.”
He also requested poi be in his dressing room when he arrives.
Aerosmith is one of the most successful bands in the history. Over the past 30 years they’ve released hits like “Dude (Looks Like A Lady),” “Rag Doll,” “Janie’s Got a Gun,” “Walk This Way,” “Sweet Emotion,” “Dream On,” What it Takes,” “Angel,” “I Don’t Wanna Miss a Thing,” “Livin’ on the Edge,” “Back in the Saddle,” “Crazy,” “Amazing,” “Cryin’” and “Jaded.”
They’re already in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and put on legendary live shows. The group has sold more than 150 million albums and won four Grammys, eight American Music Awards and countless others.
Tyler (vocals), Joe Perry (guitar), Brad Whitford (guitar), Tom Hamilton (bass) and Joey Kramer (drums) exploded onto the rock scene in the early 70’s. Recently, the music video game “Guitar Hero” released a “Guitar Hero: Aerosmith” edition, which follows the career of Aerosmith by featuring significant songs that represent the band through various periods of their history spanning from their show at Mendon Nipmus Regional High School in 1970 to their Super Bowl XXXV halftime show in 2001. The edition sold more than half a million copies in its first week and grossed more than $25 Million. It's helped younger fans identify with their music.
