I'm still wondering how the hell that woman's brain is functioning. Well, there's not much we can do about I guess. Just DON'T BUY IT!!!

He's seen Paree, but sometimes he likes being down on the farm. Yes, that was Aerosmith wild man Steven Tyler checking out the 4H Club exhibits the other day at the Marshfield Fair. Steven even stopped by to sample Anna's Fried Dough. How sweet!

TYLER, TOO, GOES-HIP HOP
Steven Tyler of Aerosmith is moonlighting. Using his real name, Steven Tallarico, the rock band's lead singer is working in a midtown studio on a CD titled "Mob Story: A Hip-Hopra." Producer Jack Douglas is overseeing the project, which he describes to me as a mob story done in rap. Joining Tyler/Tallarico on the record are Vincent Pastore and Tony Sirico from "The Sorpranos," Kamal from the Jerky Boys and a compatriot from Aerosmith, Joe Perry. Douglas is hoping for big things. But in the meantime, "We're putting it out ourselves," he says, "until we can find a distributor."

DSH: It’s already out. At least I think it is. At least I have a bunch of CD’s of it laying around. I think you can get it at Tower Records. You can order it from Sony. Brad took care of that, which is very cool!

Jeb: That is a very underrated heavy rock album.

DSH: It’s a slammer. We had talked of doing another one. Brad has worked so much with Aerosmith this last year. He is burned out! I think they are getting ready to start another one. At some point, Brad and I will get together. I love Brad. He’s like a brother. He is a great guy. Working together is really easy. I think we’ll do another one someday.

Jeb: How did that come about in the first place?

DSH: Aerosmith and Ted Nugent had the same management, Leber/Krebs. When Brad got fed up with Tyler and everyone being so high and nothing ever getting done, he quit. I had already quit. It was the second time. I walked out in ‘78 and again in ‘82. That’s when we decided to put something together. We auditioned a couple of guys. We found them right here in Atlanta. The drummer Steve Pace, has been with Krokus. The bass player was an English dude named David Hewitt. He was with a band in the ‘70’s called Babe Ruth. They are all still around, so who knows, we could get Whitford/St. Holmes together and it would be the original line up! I think original line up is the way to go. I’m sorry Ted can’t figure that out. You see what it’s done for Kiss. You see what it’s done for Aerosmith. Ted just seems to think it’s all just him.

That was copied directly from a person who heard this. (thus the quotes around what she wrote)


...and here's another take on that radio thing:

Brad Whitford was on the radio today talking about the new album. He said they have 9 songs done and might add a tenth one. They've been recording it at Joe Perry's house and his favorite song so far is Avante Garden. The bad news-it probably won't be released until March or April.

... and on CablePulse24, a TV news network in Toronto, Canada Steven said he would NOT watch the final episode of "Survivor"...

Because of this I've also changed the thing at the top of the pages to say Rock This Way.de as a reminder...
I hope this will make it easy for everyone to remember how to come here :)

A huge thanks to my german online friend Yannick Block who gave this URL to me! Visit his website at http://www.rocknrollpage.de

(The old URL will still work though of course)

Last night Eli Zoske (the person who sent me the info that Joe played on the album) went to a Yankee Grey concert and after the show he asked one of the bandmembers how they got Joe to record with them...

Their guitarist Matt Basford, who was the bandmember he talked with, said that Billie is Jerry Hughes' cousin. So when they were recording, Joe was in town and agreed to do it! Basford also said he's always been a huge Aero-fan and it was incredible to meet the guys.

Also, he said they're going to try to get Joe to play on the next album as well, so keep an eye out for that!

What upsets me though is that she says she will show those pics that Steven didn't want her to have in her book. Is this woman completely insane or what? Fortunately those pics are not up, atleast not now...

Aerosmith tribute faithful to originals
By KIERAN GRANT -- Toronto Sun

This week, a few toys for the attic.

VARIOUS ARTISTS
Right In The Nuts: A Tribute To Aerosmith (Small Stone)

*** (out of five)

Remember that old clich about how everyone who bought The Velvet Underground's records in the '60s went on to form bands in the '70s?

Well, this double CD, put out by the rock-addled heads at Detroit's Small Stone label, is like that in reverse -- a through-the-looking-glass glimpse of what happens when fans of a massive band like Aerosmith grow up and go underground.

In the spirit of a punk-rock tribute, virtually all of the bands on Right In The Nuts are relatively unknown, which means there's no room for pointless star-turns or revolving-door musical treatments. Instead, the cream of the U.S. underground hard-rock scene is assembled for burbling blasts of guitar-skronk that are as curiously faithful to the originals as they are sleazy -- which, when you think about it, is what made the originals great in the first place.

The double-album format means there's lots of room for error, and a few bands sound so caught up in their memories of teen lust that their tunes turn to mush.

There are plenty of kicks to make the ride worthwhile. Five Horse Johnson's Bright Light Fright sounds like southern-fried Lemmy; Electric Frankenstein's big, chugging Sick As A Dog; Drunk Horse turn swagger into stagger with Kings And Queens; Men Of Porn's wonky, lurching Lightning Strikes.

But the real ace in the hole belongs to Man's Ruin signees Alabama Thunderpussy, who best capture the spirit of the comp with Sweet Emotion, a calamitous collision of riff-rock, boogie and buzzing noise.

This CD is equally suited for afternoons working on the van and evenings working on the beer.

Recommended for fans of: Black Sabbath, Ted Nugent, AC/DC circa Jailbreak, Motorhead. Fans of latter-day Aerosmith are strongly cautioned.

For info, visit www.smallstone.com.

Drunk Horse play the El Mocambo Monday with locals Tchort and The Fangs. Alabama Thunderpussy are at the El Mo Sept. 3.

2) Steven is in the VH1 poll for the sexiest artist over 50.

Last time i checked Steven went from #1 to #4.

There was a surprise 54th-birthday party for Tony Sirico of "The Sopranos" on Saturday at Pip's Comedy Club in Brooklyn. Among the revelers: Vincent Pastore, who played Salvatore (Big Pussy) Bompensiero on the series, and Steven Tyler of Aerosmith.
