[SuperSwede]

Does anyone know?

It looks that way... but the "toxic twins" have had problems like this in the past, Joe left for a couple of years and then returned..

Speaking of that, I really dig Joe´s solo albums

 

[Spudman]

Also still available

From all I've read, it looks like he is, Tone. They may call it off or get back together later, tho. Prob'ly just needs some chill time. (and maybe heal up from falling off that stage).ancake

NEW YORK (AP) -- Aerosmith's lead guitarist Joe Perry says the legendary rock band isn't breaking up — although they need a new singer.

Perry said on the micro-blogging site Twitter late Monday Aerosmith is "not splitting up" but "looking for a new singer to work with" amid speculation about the band's future and the role of front man Steven Tyler.

Tyler has been quoted as saying he is considering a solo career.



Perry said Monday on WKXL, a radio station in Concord, New Hampshire, that Tyler hasn't communicated his intentions with anyone in the band and that he found out about Tyler's solo wishes after going online.

Tyler could not immediately be reached for comment.

The 61-year-old Tyler was injured when he fell off a stage during an Aug. 5 performance in South Dakota, and the band canceled the remainder of its summer tour.

"After the tour got canceled, he just kept drifting off and doing other things. We would hear things from different people. He wasn't talking directly to anybody in the band," Perry told WKXL, referring to Tyler. "So basically, he just made the announcement that he was taking some time off."

to elaborate on oldguy's post Joe may be looking to other pastures however.
The Journey Band, now with lead Arnel Pineda, paid a visit to a talk show one night. In an episode with the theme, Don’t Stop Believing, Pineda shared his own journey.

Arnel Pineda shared that he began performing when he was a young boy in the Philippines. His mother and father, both tailors, recognized his talent.remarkably he has the Joe Perry sound down pat.links can be found about the singer and the whole story of how it all came together.had all the news elsewhere but cannot seem to locate it now except I do know he is from Manila.they recently toured in Louisiana w/ the new singer.heard it was sold out the few nights they were there. :dude

I know I'm probably in the minority here, but I think Aerosmith should have retired a long time ago. In my modest and humble opinion, the last decent album they put out was Live Bootleg. That probably dates me a bit, but it may also explain why I'm not a fan of their more recent endeavors. Joe Perry is still a great guitarist, and Steven still has the pipes, but...sadly they aren't writing anything worth listening to anymore.

Again, I realize that most of you will probably disagree. I'm okay with that. I'm of the mind that "Older is gooder", in most cases involving those rock bands that were big in the 70's.

Enough said. Talk amongst yourselves. ;-)

gotcha Rev - not unusual to fudge first names.I'll find the article when I ain't lookin for it about Journey's Perry which makes this fftopic anyway.saw them several times they never let anyone down

 

[peachhead]

Maybe it's just a big publicity stunt.

I've never been a huge Aerosmith fan anyway.

 

[marnold]

Things have been a little unsettled since Tyler fell off the stage earlier this year.

 

[msteeln]

That makes two...

I think Aerosmith should have retired a long time ago. I realize that most of you will probably disagree. I'm okay with that.

I could have gone to their most(?) recent show (a make up), which may end up being their last, but other than Attic and Rocks, I've never been huge on them. They really don't put out like they once did, and the time I saw them in the mid 70s they were really good but not great. The $ must be too good to stop.

Not going to disagree with you here. While I admire them for trudging on, I haven't really enjoyed much they're done in the past 10 years.

 

[player]

Definitely.these performers know where the $ is. concerts and sports.only dif is one kids play the other is learned and actual work wih a bit o fun thrown in for good measure.

 

[Radioboy950]

Get Your Wings is the best of the bunch.
Essential classic rock listening.
Great tracks on "Toys" and "Rocks" too, but Wings was one of those coming-of-age rock records that brings back great memories for me.
I bought nothing from Aerosmith since then.

 

[player]

have not seen or heard that Wings one yet.last thing(s) I remember getting was their night in the ruts and the Big One with the Cow on it.
