Steven Tyler: not a girl, just an old woman.

It’s being reported that hairy god of the 80s Steven Tyler has walked his way out of Aerosmith. Aerosmith without hoovermouth Tyler? How could it possibly be?

Alas it is true. Less-important band member Joe Perry told Digital Spy: “Steven quit as far as I can tell. I don’t know any more than you do about it. I got off the plane two nights ago. I saw online that Steven said that he was going to leave the band. I don’t know for how long, indefinitely or whatever. Other than that, I don’t know.� Tyler, 61, said that he was going to move ahead with a solo career, concentrating on ‘Brand Tyler’.

Brand Tyler…? Watch this space. Or rather, don’t. Here’s some vintage Aerosmith, in case you need a reminder of how awful they are/were:
