steven tyler leaving aerosmith

Widespread reports were circulating every news outlet yesterday speculating that Aerosmith lead singer Steven Tyler after almost 40 years together was leaving the band. On Friday, Joe Perry, Aerosmith's lead guitarist told the Las Vegas Sun that Steven Tyler left the band after their Abu Dhabi concert last month.

According to the British magazine, Classic Rock, Tyler said that he was planning to work on his own band, "Brand Tyler," after he walked off the stage at the UAE show.

Per recent twitter tweets by HJoe Perry, "Aerosmith is positively looking for a new singer to work with. You just can't take 40 years of experience and throw it in the bin"

There has been a lot of controversy as to whether or not this is actually true and I suppose only time will tell, but a new lead singer for Aerosmith will certainly change the face of rock and roll.
