And then Tyler, Jagger, and Bono form a whole new band!All we need now is for Mick Jagger to quit the Rolling Stones and Bono to quit U2 for the triple play!
In the end its not about record sales. Some people like to perform. Its about that show in Las Vegas with us 50 and 60 year old's in the audience. Instead of a cover band playing our music with have part of Aerosmith holding the "official" name. It could be worse, I see my parents generation and you have different generations of surviving Temptations members running around hiring 4 other singers to tour as the Temptations Review for example. Can you see Dave Navarro 20 years from now heading one of many Red Hot Chili Peppers touring groups.
Well, that pretty much goes without saying, but I'd have been semi-interested in seeing them live, performing their good material. I'd have no interest in seeing them with some replacement singer, which, as cheesy as they are now, they'd probably handpick from the contestants on some kind of competetive reality show. I can see it now, Joe Perry and Brad Whitford sitting behind a judge's table, Joe scratching his chin thoughtfully as he watches some 20-year-old American Idol reject in leather pants with a trendy haircut belting out some terrible rendition of "Dream On." Remember "Rockstar INXS?" I can totally see Aerosmith trying some nonsense like that.
I must be the only person who liked that show
. It didn't work as well with with supergroup Supernova, oops some band already had that name. When Arnel Pineda was chosen by Journey my thought was the opportunity that was missed. By the shows format they could have chosen him anyway no matter what the call in votors said.
