Before Seann William Scott was Stifler in American Pie, he stiffed a guy of his perfect girl in Aerosmith’s Hole in the Soul. He looks the same now as he did when he was 19 in that 1997 music video.
Last week, Joe Perry was rushed to the hospital for breathing problems after performing with Billy Joel. He was hospitalized, released and doing better. Yesterday, he gave an update on his upcoming tour.
JUST WANTED TO THANK EVERYONE FOR ALL OF THE KIND MESSAGES I’VE RECEIVED THIS WEEK. I’M HOME AND DOING WELL, BUT THE DOCTOR RECOMMENDS A BIT MORE DOWNTIME BEFORE GETTING OUT TO ROCK AGAIN, SO REGRETTABLY I HAD TO CANCEL MY UPCOMING TOUR DATES. WAS REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO PLAYING THESE SHOWS WITH BRAD AND GARY AND SEEING ALL OF YOU WHO WERE PLANNING TO COME OUT AND SUPPORT US. WE WILL BE BACK OUT AS S00N AS POSSIBLE.
WISHING YOU ALL HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND LOOKING
FORWARD TO SEEING YOU IN 2019.
JOE PERRY
I am not worried about him, he like a Timex watch. He takes a licking and keeps on ticking.
On Saturday night, Joe Perry joined Billy Joel on stage at Madison Square Garden. All seemed well when they sang Walk This Way together, but then things took a turn for the worse.
The 68-year-old had problems breathing and paramedics worked on him for 40 minutes. Once he was stable enough, he was rushed to the hospital.
His manager, Paul Geary, told Us Weekly, “He had just walked off stage after performing with Billy Joel, and immediately complained of shortness of breath.” Then he added, “The in-house EMTs connected an oxygen tank and decided to take him to the hospital. He’s awake and alert this morning.”
This is not the first time that he has been rushed to the hospital after a performance in NYC. Two years ago, while performing with Vampire Weekend, he barely made it off the stage before collapsing. Even though Steven Tyler was born in Riverdale of The Bronx, Aerosmith should consider not doing any shows in the five boroughs for Perry’s sake.
Back when Aerosmith was starting out, getting baked to Steven Tyler meant something completely different to him then it does now. Back then it was all about getting high, now it is about getting full. As in his daughter, Mia made a homemade chicken pot pie.
I think we can all agree which one is much better. The chicken pot pie! Plus, it is a whole lot cheaper and made with love.

One of my favorite segments on The Tonight Show is when Jimmy Fallon brings musicians on to perform one of their songs with classroom instruments. Tonight, the NBC host and The Roots were joined by Aerosmith and together they did Walk This Way. And now I cannot stop listening to it.
The only the negative is that I was hoping RUN-DMC was going to surprise us with a cameo. To me, this version sounded more like the ’86 duet as compared to ’77 original one. But then again, I heard the rap/rock version first. Which is weird because Steven Tyler and I are from the same hometown in The Bronx, but our borough is more known for being the birthplace of hip hop. Which is why he left for Boston.
