Yesterday, I got an email that Aerosmith is getting a star on The Hollywood Walk of Fame on February 14th, and I was like how do they not already have one? Turns out that they were granted one in 1999, but have not collected it until now or should I say on Valentine’s Day.
Ana Martinez, Producer of the Hollywood Walk of Fame, said, “Finally! We have been waiting a long time to honor Aerosmith with their star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Aerosmith is one of the greatest rock bands in the world and we expect many fans will be ‘Crazy’ excited to see them honored!”
Maybe they should rename it Hollywood Walk this way of Fame in honor of the band?
BTW I wonder who else never claimed their stars and how long they have to claim them? You would think after nearly 20 years, the would be like thank you, next.
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.
