FabioRoses Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/aerosmith-is-still-considering-touring-without-steven-tyler/ Guitarist Brad Whitford tells Metal Rules: "Absolutely, we have considered it — but whether it will happen, I don't know. I think it would be great." Asked who he thinks would be a good fit, he says, "A lot of people, everybody from Myles Kennedy [ALTER BRIDGE] to Axl [Rose, GUNS N' ROSES]. [Laughs] We had a bunch of people a while ago like Sammy Hagar. It would be a lot of fun." Here we go again.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSoRose Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Fuck no... Love Myles but he would be a bad fit for Aerosmith songs. I would only see a Stevenless Aerosmith if it was Axl just for the novelty Awful idea 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jekylhyde Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 IMO, they need someone with a little bit of grit in his/her voice, so it's a "no" for Myles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anguyen92 Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 My thoughts on this in another forum. I am so sick and tired of everyone that has a big name value wanting Myles to bail them out of a bad situation. I mean it was a fine novelty back in 2012 when Myles sang at the Hall of Fame for GNR. Then it got really annoying in 2013, when he sang for Kings of Chaos (during a period where Myles was recording vocals for Alter Bridge's Fortress album). Now, all of a sudden, the guys from Aerosmith may consider wanting Myles to fill in for vocals in the event that Steven Tyler going all country will get the way of Aerosmith. Oh yeah, there was also some rumors (from not that great sources) that thinks that Slash/Myles/Conspirators will open in a few GNR shows (During the same time that Alter Bridge is in a tour that they desperately, and I mean desperately given their status in the states, needs). Screw the old bands, I want AB to do more and hear that Myles solo album, dang it. Is that so hard to ask for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Len Cnut Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 All that band of brothers bollocks soon goes for a toss when theres a few quid to be made eh? . I love it personally, the tawdryness of it all, it corroborates my negative world view Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
username Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 I love Aerosmith, but for the love of all that is holy DON'T tour under the Aerosmith name without Steven. It's just wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axlslash Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 I can't wait for the ACDC/Aersosmith/GNR tour next year, with Axl singing for everyone 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maynard Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Can't these bands simply retire? Because stupid people certainly will keep giving them money. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Jay Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 (edited) It's a new thing. At least ritchie blackmore did it great. Here it is about celebration and stardom those guys are very much like actors playing bad characters. It's looking like it's gonna end up on a cruise boat with a weird back feeling.

Sprite Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Aerosmith without Steven seems odd. Like GNR without Axl. He's the voice and face of it all. Joe Perry is his Slash. Joey Kramer his Duff. AC/DC to me is different because the focus hasn't necessarily been on the singer, more so the music. Not to take away anything from Brian and Bon because both are great. I guess it's all subjective. I saw Aerosmith in the Tacoma Dome and Cheap Trick opened in 2012. They put on a good show. It was really short though.. like 80-90 minutes.

The Real McCoy Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 This is the second time in a decade that they've considered this. Brad is doing the Whitford / St. Holmes thing again. Joe seems to scurry off to the Joe Perry Project when Aerosmith is on hiatus. Those are better options than freaking replacing Steven Tyler, and I'm the biggest Aerosmith fanboy on the planet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MillionsOfSpiders Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 It's a smoke screen, really. They're not considering anything of the sort, they're just trying to give Tyler a kick up the arse. I bet he's sat there, listening to Garth Brooks eating a cheese sandwich and just fucking laughing. Axl who?? Says Steven Tyler! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classicrawker Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I love Aerosmith especially the 70's music and even the 80's comeback albums but JMO but I think the band has pretty much shot it's wade when it comes to meaningful new music.............I would love to see them do something with Sammy Hagar only because he might inject some life into the music again...I could care less what they call themselves but think that collaboration would be interesting...........

ZoSoRose Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 What's the big deal with letting Steven do his own thing? Joe and Brad have their own projects and Aerosmith has practically been on a never ending tour since the 90s. Let the guy do a solo record, yeesh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say what you want about the direction that he wants to go in musically, but fair is fair. The guy should be allowed to do his thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely the band wanted to Aersosmith stuff this year but Steven nixed it to do his solo thing. Or it could be an image thing, not wanting to be associated with country or be forced into playing Steven songs on tour. Or, perhaps most likely of all, they can't stand him but put up with him for the Aero$mith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Considering Steven showed up at Joe Perry's gig letting people know he was still in Aerosmith, if they did have the balls to try to do it without him? The gear would mysteriously disappear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
