Remember when they said the project had been scrapped, and so had the tour, and that the band was breaking up?
Now we are getting a little more insight on what was happening to the band during those years in Tyler’s new book “Does the noise in my head bother you?”
The Aerosmith front man and American Idol judge will be on the cover of Rolling Stone Magazine next month and said the book was,
"the unbridled truth, the in-your-face, up-close and prodigious tale of Steven Tyler straight from the horse's lips ... All the unexpurgated, brain-jangling tales of debauchery, sex & drugs, transcendence & chemical dependence you will ever want to hear."
Tyler, 63, also says that he did drugs with guitarist Joe Perry in 2008 after many years of both of them being sober.
“Joe Perry was so impaired by snorting prescription pills, he couldn't even play his instrument. But I was no better - I couldn't sing.”
Tyler says he is sober now and enjoying his time as the newest American Idol judge, and would like to get the guys of Aerosmith back together for another run at making an album.
Tyler last appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone's Magazine in the August 1976 issue.
