There seems to be rumors that the health of Steven Tyler of Aerosmith is not very good. He fell sometime ago in one of his concerts and several had to be canceled:

Nearly a week after Aerosmith's lead singer Steven Tyler fell off the stage at a South Dakota concert, mystery surrounds his current condition. A concert spokesman said Tyler, 61, was airlifted to a local hospital after suffering minor head, neck and shoulder injuries, according to the Associated Press. The band then postponed three concert dates in Canada and it's unclear when they will resume touring. In radio interviews this week, lead guitarist Joe Perry said he hasn't spoken with Tyler since the fall, but told Chicago's 97.9 The Loop, "I've seen him fall of a stage more than once ... I've fallen off ... Stuff happens." According to Perry, the frontman (who suffered a leg injury earlier this summer) broke his shoulder blade in two places. "No concussion. Nothing internal," he told Detroit's WXRX 104.9 FM. "So it's like he [was] in a bad bar fight. [Like] somebody had a baseball bat." As for Tyler's prognosis, Perry told Detroit's 101 WRIF, "They're still running tests. MRIs, everything, X rays. I really don't know what's going on." |
Yesterday the Sun claimed they would be completing the Canadian Concerts some time in the next year and that all tickets woudl be valid for then and any one who would not be able to make it might be reimbursed.
I think it is amazing that they still can even perform after the abuse their bodies have been put through! I am in the ind set like others hear it would be nice for the to just let the touring stop and put the band to rest. I can think of other bands that should do the same.
