Aerosmith

Tom Hamilton will be back in the proverbial saddle this fall when Aerosmith tours South America, Mexico and Japan. But life in recent years has been anything but the same old song and dance for the tall, blond bassist, who is currently cancer-free thanks to a radical — and somewhat risky — treatment method.

It wasn’t all that long ago that it seemed like Aerosmith might never record again — but they’re back in the studio, working on their first album of new material in a decade, and they’re giving fans an early behind-the-scenes look at the process. The band’s latest in-studio video offers a glimpse of what appears to be one of the new songs in progress, with guitarist Joe Perry playing a blues riff

Attention all units: Be on the lookout for an aging lead guitarist from legendary rock band. If found please call Steven Tyler of Aerosmith immediately. There may be a reward of new music.
