Aerosmith and Kravitz Draw Blood
The Aerosmith/Lenny Kravitz tour is so flippin' hot that it's been extended through February.
"These are all songs people can sing along to when they're home fucking themselves silly," Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler said after Rolling Stone cornered him, guitarist Joe Perry and Kravitz backstage in Philadelphia. "Everybody in the place is going home with sore throats."
The performers have been hurting themselves, as well. "The second night of the tour, I tripped on one of the Aerosmith ramps and tore all the ligaments in my ankle," says Kravitz, who hasn't let the injury cancel any performances. ("Just an excuse to take more pain pills," jokes Tyler.) And Perry donated some blood to the stage. "I'd been thrashing the guitar for a couple of tours without a scrape," he says. "The other night it looked like Townshend -- I could see more blood on my hand than skin."
Tyler is also stoked about the lovely ladies Kravitz is bringing out: "We're gonna make some tea out of Lenny's fingernail clippings," says Tyler, awesomely -- but it hasn't affected the frontmen's special relationship. "When Steven and I are bunking together, it's all right," says Kravitz. "But when Joe hops in it gets a little tight."
