Tom Jones For Aerosmith? Don't Rule It Out

Joe Perry has told Classic Rock that one name Aerosmith might consider as a stand-in for Steven Tyler is… Tom Jones!

Says Perry: “He’s got a great set of pipes, so why not? I’ve played with him before, and know he could bring something extra to the band. We haven’t approached him yet, but if he were interested that would be great. Imagine the interest Tom would generate.”

The Welsh warbler was, of course, amusingly linked with the vacant Black Sabbath job nearly 25 years ago. In fact, it was an April Fool’s joke by Kerrang! magazine in 1984.

Perry now insists that, whoever the band bring in, this will be on a temporary basis, while Tyler pursues other activities. But, as soon as Tyler’s ready to return it will be business as usual for Aerosmith.

This is getting ridiculous! Either bring back Tyler or give it up guys while you still have some credibility left!

Could this story get anymore ridiculous. End it now or wait for Tyler.

did you write the black sabbath april fool by any chance mr dome???

But think of the reinterpretations of the

“…Love on a Stannah Stairlift, Getting it up when I’m sliding down…”

“…TAN. It’s my new obsession. TAN. It’s not even question. TAN. Now I’m getting all sweaty. TAN like my favorite Seatee…”

“Old Spice! happy just to wear old spice! does my chest hair get lice? Everybody talks about it…”

Oh for fucks sake………………………..

c’mon guys just stop writing about this aerosmith thing all together. its getting stupid.

Have you guys ever even seen Tom Jones live? He’s a huge voiced machine on stage and sung rock n roll since before you were born!

Well its not unusual. Boom Boom!

Anyone who is ridiculing the idea of Tom Jones with Aerosmith does not know good music. If you have never seen Tom Jones and his band, you have no room to talk. This man is amazing, and he would elevate Aerosmith to a new level. He is a fantastic showman with incredible vocal ability, and he brings every musician that he plays with up to his level. I agree with Joe Perry’s assessment. If Tom wants in, do it!

Aerojones..not Aerosmith..
it will only be Aerosmith with Steven Tyler

This could be interesting!! Tom Jones has a huge powerful voice with incredible range. There are so many weak feminine voiced male singers covered with tattoos that have flooded the business…this could cause quite a stir…..a real singer!!!

Aerosmith needs Tom Jones!

how about Matt Goss from Bros.???

Joe and the boys need to blow Paul Rodgers and get him onboard before they turn into a joke

I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

bonjour tout le monde j’aime bien cette facon de imaginer ce commentaire mais l’ immobilier est mon hobbie.
