AEROSMITH Meets Lord Stanley's Cup!
July 8, 2011, 13 years ago
The official fan club of AEROSMITH - Aeroforceone.com - has issued the following update:
"One of the most prestigious trophies of all of sports, The Stanley Cup made its second visit to Aerosmith’s studio, Pandora’s Box, on Friday. The band’s producer, Jack Douglas, arranged to have the Cup there with some of the Bruins training staff. The boys took about an hour off from recording while they posed for pictures with Lord Stanley’s bowl. As you may remember back in 2003, Boston native Jay Pandolfo of the champion New Jersey Devils brought the loving Cup to the same studio when the band was recording Honkin’ On Bobo with Jack. Déjà vu all over again! That was sweet but this is much sweeter since it was the hometown Bruins who won it this time. Hopefully this will be an annual thing. In another strange twist of irony, back in 1972, Aerosmith’s then manager arranged for the guys to rehearse in the old Boston Garden. Joe told me they used to rehearse in the visiting teams locker room. He said it was very common to see the likes of Andre the Giant, Bruno Sammartino and George the Animal Steele walking by as well as Bruins greats Bobby Orr, Phil Esposito or fashion plate of the day Derek Sanderson. Also, 1972 was the last year the Bruins won the Cup."
