Steven Tyler
Opens up to Matt Lauer about addiction
April 29, 2011
In this exclusive preview from Matt Lauer's interview with Aerosmith's Steven Tyler for Dateline and the TODAY show, the rocker speaks candidly about how his addiction to prescription drugs nearly destroyed his band. "I get that they were angry, I get that I fell and it's nothing any of them haven't done," Tyler says. "It's just that I'm the frontman, I fell off, I was high, I owned it." Later, Lauer asks Tyler about his tumultuous relationship with Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry. "He plays guitar, and he plays it in such a way that I'm addicted to it," Tyler says. "It's the magic. Am I gonna fight it?"
The full interview will air Sunday night on Dateline and Monday morning on the TODAY show.

STEVEN TYLER's Autobiography: First Review Posted Online - Apr. 29, 2011
The first review of AEROSMITH frontman and "American Idol" judge Steven Tyler's new autobiography, "Does The Noise In My Head Bother You?", can be found at this location.
A book excerpt is available at Today.MSNBC.MSN.com.
"Does The Noise In My Head Bother You?" is scheduled for release on May 3 as a 400-page hardcover.
"Does the Noise in My Head Bother You?" is the rock memoir to end all rock memoirs — the straight-up, no-holds-barred life of Grammy Award-winning, Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame incductee, and all-around superstar legend Steven Tyler, lead singer of AEROSMITH (and celebrity judge on "American Idol"). This is it — "the unbridled truth, the in-your-face, up-close and prodigious tale of Steven Tyler straight from the horse's lips" — as Tyler tells all, from the early years through the glory days, "All the unexpurgated, brain-jangling tales of debauchery, sex and drugs and transcendence you will ever want to hear."
Commented Tyler: "I've been mythicized, Mick-icized, eulogized and fooligized, I've been Cole-Portered and farmer's-daughtered, I've been Led Zepped and 12-stepped. I'm a rhyming fool and so cool that me, Fritz the Cat, and Mohair Sam are the baddest cats that am. I have so many outrageous stories, too many, and I'm gonna tell 'em all. All the unexpurgated, brain-jangling tales of debauchery, sex and drugs, transcendous and chemical dependence you will ever want to hear."
The son of a classical pianist straight out of the Bronx of old Archie comics, Steven Tyler was born to be a rock star. Weaned on Cole Porter, Nat King Cole, Mick — and his beloved Janis Joplin — Tyler began tearing up the streets and the stage as a teenager before finally meeting his "mutant twin" and legendary partner Joe Perry. In this addictively readable memoir, told in the playful, poetic voice that is uniquely his own, Tyler unabashedly recounts the meteoric rise, fall, and rise of AEROSMITH over the last three decades and riffs on the music that gives it all meaning.
Tyler tells what it's like to be a living legend and the frontman of one of the world's most revered and infamous bands-the debauchery, the money, the notoriety, the fights, the motels and hotels, the elevators, limos, buses and jets, the rehab. He reveals the spiritual side that "gets lost behind the stereotype of the Sex Guy, the Drug Guy, the Demon of Screamin', the Terror of the Tropicana." And he talks about his epic romantic life and his relationship with his four children. As dazzling, bold, and out-on-the-edge as the man himself, "Does the Noise in My Head Bother You?" is an all-access backstage pass into this extraordinary showman's life.
"Does The Noise In My Head Bother You?" traces Tyler's youth in the Bronx, his early music career and influences, his legendary partnership with Joe Perry, the meteoric rise, fall, and rise of AEROSMITH over the last three decades, their music, his epic romantic life, his relationship with his four children (including actress Liv Tyler and actress and author Mia Tyler) life on the road and in the spotlight, the economics of the rock star business — and all the sex, drugs, and rock and roll a reader could ask for.
Tyler spent the last few years working on his book, which he says will be more personal than the material covered in the band 2003 autobiography, "Walk This Way: The Autobiography of Aerosmith".
Commented Tyler: "This is not just my take — this is the unbridled truth, the in-your-face, up-close and prodigious tale of Steven Tyler straight from the horse's lips."

Re: Aerosmith Discussion
I was just always pissed off that they lost their edge.
They could've still been big, bombastic, melodic, ballad-ey, totally 80's.... and they still could've been bad mother fuckers doing it.
I never understood why they became so campy later on.
