Aerosmith

The thing that really stands out in my mind about Aerosmith is that were still fucking together. Whatever weve done together and whatever weve become, is second to the fact that were still doing this. Im still in love with these guys. Im not saying it didnt take a lot of work because drugs will take you and pull you apart. But it wasnt anything we shot up or put up our noses that gave us the edge - it was Joe Perrys fuck-all, being as abrasive as that motherfucker is, and Brad Whitfords ear, Tom Hamiltons well-aimed simplicity and Joey Kramers solid bed of backbeat. Keeping this band together has been the hardest and the happiest thing weve done in our lives. Its been a long time coming. So for all the other stuff that comes from Aerosmith, the most amazing thing is that were still playing and still having some fucking fun.

We havent quite been able to put together the deal for the shuttle -- we want to be the lounge act. Be the first band to play weightless!

— Aerosmith want

I just want Aerosmith to always give me a hard-on, thats all I ever ask for, for it to be the most special thing in my life. As long as I look at it through those eyes, it will always be that way.

You know...sometimes Ill be looking out at the audience and Ill be in the middle of a song, and Ill just stop dead. Ill look out at them, and think what is this... Theres one thing that keeps me doing it though, I really love it, I believe in it.

The more I look back at my life and the things that we did, the more I think theres got to have been a plan for this band, either by a higher power or an angel of mercy. I mean, thats how I like to look at it now, because for all the shit I did, someone threw me a rope. I look back on the times I OD-ed, didnt have any money left in the bank, was let go off CBS because the band sucked, couldnt even get my shit together to change my clothes, but look at us now. When you actually look back, its pretty damn amazing, hence the song.

Even in the old days, wed make an effort. When Id go out to score on Eighth Avenue, Id get my junk and a chocalate doughnut. But Id always also pick up one of those pita-pocket health food sandwiches. You know, something really good for me.

Id met Mick Jagger years ago when he invited me to his house in Malibu, but back then I was too gagged to my fucking ear lobes in coke and Tuinals. I was barely in shape to knock on the door. But this time it was very beautiful. The limo pulled into his tent in the tent city, and he had a crib there for his daughter. We hugged, and I told Mick, You dont know what it means to be standing here with you after all these years. Its amazing, because I woke up this morning and I got my weekly report from the office, and right next to Aerosmith at Number Two in airplay R&R is the Stones album at Number One. Of course, deep inside Im thinking to myself, And watch out, because were going to knock you right off the charts, motherfucker.

One thing just kept leading to another, different angles, different things. I always tell people my career is like driving a taxicab. I get a fare, it takes me to a new neighborhood. I get another fare, it takes me someplace else.

People used to ask me, What do you reckon youll be doing when youre 40?, and I told em rocking out and kicking ass! Now its What do you reckon youll be doing at 60? and the answers exactly the same. Im always going to love Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze will still give me a hard-on when Im hooked up to a life-support machine. Hey, even when Im dead, theyre going to have a hell of a job nailing the coffin lid down.

Id been playing in bands for something like seven years at this point. And we were always trying to get ahead, trying to rehearse and sound professional. But then I go to see the Jam Band (Joe Perry and Tom Hamiltons band before Aerosmith), and it blew me away. I wasnt expecting too much. Then they got up there and did Rattlesnake Shake by Fleetwood Mac. And I said to myself, Thats it. These guys suck - they cant even tune their instruments. But they have a great groove going thats better than any fuck Ive ever had. I just knew that if I could show them a little of what I knew, with the looseness and balls that they showed up there, then wed really have something.
