AEROSMITH's Joe Perry - "We Don't Know When We'll Work Again As Band And It's Starting To Hit Home"
August 30, 2010, 14 years ago
AEROSMITH guitarist Joe Perry said he doesn't expect an American Idol announcement regarding singer Steven Tyler to affect the current tour, set to end September 16 in Vancouver, British Columbia.
"I think everybody's a little worn out," he tells Paul Clark from Cincinnati.com . "The tour is winding up, and we don't know when we'll work again as band. That part of it is up in the air, and it's starting to hit home."When asked about the Toronto show where Perry responded to a hip-bump from Tyler with a thrust of his own that sent the singer head-first into the crowd, Perry explains: "He came up from behind, and I didn't know where he was. He gave me a hip check and I did everything I could to stay on the stage. Then when I was walking back, I brushed by him. I think he had a choice - he could've stayed on stage but he saw 20 or 30 fans waiting to catch him. It looks like he tried to pull me back. Everything happened so fast. It was typical Aerosmith mumbo jumbo."
