Steven Tyler and Joe Perry Are Happy To Be Alive | Letterman

[@launawhittier5612]

I love how Perry said, when they get on stage the dream of what they wanted to do comes back ! Just love this band. Great music.

[@xxcxx8112]

Steven Tyler is such a classy, elegant, soft spoken, kind and insanely talented individual. Listening to his voice and enjoying his stage presence is an honor

[@MisterMooster]

Classy except for when he had someone, in the 70s, visit his girlfriend, drug her up, and start a fire to try to burn her to death, and then force her to get an abortion when she (barely) survived that. Classy except for the attempted murder and forced abortion. It's sad, I thought he was a good guy as well.

[@leathification]

Aerosmith isn't over.. Steven writes, plays and never stops. Their music is Immortal 😊

[@kipmcbride9910]

I remember them absolutely stealing the show at the Texxas Jam. It was unbearably hot and people were just melting . Zone out like zombies from the heat. Aerosmith came on and the crowd woke up and rocked out for the entire set. Kick ass show. I remember a stage hand wrapping Stevens head in a wet towel after their set. They literally kept the spirits of 60,000 people from dissolving. Great show.

[@lisascorp]

I've seen it online. Sadly I was only 12 and in the Midwest. But I was already a fan of theirs then and still am now. It looks like it was incredible and something to never forget.

[@ericmalone3213]

@@corysmith3447 He wrote about it in his autobiography, it's not really news. A woman he had sexual relations with in the 1970s when she was under age is now suing him before the statute of limitations runs out. Lots of rock stars were criminal creeps in the 1970s (Do you know about Lori Maddox & Jimmy Page?).

[@kimhartkimh9620]

Stephen orgasism with my mind-luv ya kitten and Hot Monkey Band!

[@EuanH91]

To be fair, on a talk show like this they’ve got a segment of around 6-8 minutes, Dave’s got a card of questions to get through and producers in his ear telling him to move on and ask another question. You can’t have a proper conversation when you’ve only got 6 minutes to make an interview, plug whatever thing they’re plugging _and_ make an entertaining piece of TV. If hosts just let them talk, they’d be out of time before they finished the answer to the first question.

[@kab9706]

Seriously. There are some world famous interviewers that don't do that very basic interview rule: let the person you're talking to speak.

I had a moment of panic when I saw this video was posted. For the last several months it's been this channel's posts that inform me of the latest big celebrity passing away. That on-top of reports several months back that said Joe Perry was in ill health made me think the worst

[@whoamellie5610]

That's so true, on the decent chunk of the time where they post because of a passing :3 I always have to check the comments or google. It was just yesterday though, that some random Fb pages I follow - had some very misleading info in their Stories. Had to look up James Earl Jones, Kathy Bates, and Cher for no actual reason, come to find out. Like apparently their pages don't include faulty news, but they say incorrect things about deaths or ill health in their Stories? Soo odd. Made me scared - like noo! -- nottt Cher or Kathy Bates!! :0 That would be terrible. Anyhow, definitely will be crossing my big toes for Joe Perry -- he's still got a lotta years left to fill, before he gets sidelined by unavoidable health junk. :3 But if there is any extent of struggle, I hope he side-steps it!! 💜
