Post by: cutout on November 09, 2009, 12:36:31 PM
It begins today -

BTW, I'm too lazy to look it up but isn't Aerosmith another one of those bands with members who released their own BBQ sauce?

You'd think they could all get together in a room and work it all out. Like Metallica.

Branding doesn't have to be a solo project! (http://www.foghatcellars.com/)

Now taking bets on which reality show will be first:

Steven Tyler, "life after Aerosmith" theme, or

Remaining Members of Aerosmith, "replacing Steven Tyler" theme.

Sadly, I'd probably watch either. They were my favorite band growing up.

at this point, the only viable project for him to work on would be designing a dream sarcophagus out of blues 78s & pussy.

I also love how Joe Perry found German vocalist 'Hagen', who is fronting his new solo project, via a youtube forward from his wife.

Steven looks like a kindly old woman. Someone you would help cross the street or hold the door open for.

After seeing that picture I would like to retract my earlier statement.

Good lord, he looks like Lee Radziwill.

They'll be back.  It's all a ploy for the big "comeback".  Which is, what, their third one now?

As much as I roll my eyes at what they eventually became the early stuff is great and still holds up.

Looks like someone already has leaped all over the branding.

From the Joe Perry Website :

Joe Perry's Rock Your World TM Boneyard Brew Hot Sauce
NEW BOTTLE! Joe Perry has been creating bone rattling licks with Aerosmith for 30 + years. Now his Boneyard Brew Hot Sauce will rattle your palette with its incredible flavor and taste. 3.75 Ounces of fresh habanero peppers, onions and garlic, tangy squeezed lime juice, red bell peppers, chipotle peppers, and aged red wine vinegar; it's hardly the same old song and dance. Joe Perry's Rock Your World TM Boneyard Brew has a mystical flavor that will keep your taste buds rollin' all night long!


Take that Steven Tyler!

Seriously, how does Tom not have a hot sauce? Forget writing a book - celebrity hot sauce is where it's at with lazy merchandising.

A young Steven Tyler, or rhesus monkey?

RE: Joe Perry and his hot sauces. 

His website's got a whole bunch of recipes with names like "Joe Perry's Jammin Ham".  The "Flowable Wing Sauce" requires the use of a chocolate fountain if you've got one of those handy.  I can't lie, I'm curious to try this stuff.

On Aug. 5 when Steven Tyler fell off the stage, "Mr. Tyler was attempting to entertain the crowd of thousands at the Buffalo Chip Campground with his moves after the sound system broke during the song “Love in an Elevator.”

I believe it - that song is the worst!!

You know, that guy has always had some sweet moves.

What the Hell is a chocolate fountain and why would one put their chicken wings into one?? Is this some kind of rock and roll riddle, like "if you have to ask how much it costs you can't afford it anyway?"

Who, besides a caterer for John Candy (or presumably Joe Perry) would make enough wing sauce that it would fill a fountain?

For anyone that cares, apparently Tyler is now NOT leaving Aerosmith.

If you have access to the New York Dolls and the Rolling Stones why does anyone need Aerosmith?

Nobody NEEDS Aerosmith. I just have some residual pleasant thoughts of them since my childhood was spent listening to them almost exclusively. However, I haven't cared about them at all for about 10 years, and that's being generous.

'Pump' was the last time I was into Aerosmith.  Did it get any worse then the 'Cryin/Amazing/Crazy' era?  I hated that they embraced the whole power ballad nonsense.

Chocolate fountains I actually think you can get at places like Bed, Bath and Beyond for $40 or so.  Some of them are relatively small.  But yeah, using them for wings?  That's just gross.  I'm not really a wing guy as it is.  Wings are the messiest food ever without adding a fountain, that you'd be sharing with others, to the mix.
