Yep. These boys have been rockin' my world for a looong time. thumbup

True Icons of rock 'n' roll, Aerosmith has been around for 35 years after releasing their debut album "Aerosmith" in 1973. I've been with them for most of the journey 9vicariously of course) and have really enjoyed seeing these guys become the staple of rock that they are today.

I must admit to favoring their older harder music over the more "mainstream" sound they have today, but to hold such a high place as these guys have for 35 years is no easy trick for any band.

So come together all you Aerosmith fans, and tell us what you like about them.

Only 35 years? It seems like they've been around longer. Way too long, in fact lol Sorry, but I am not an Aerosmith fan. If they stopped making noise, I mean music, it wouldn't hurt my feelings at all lol

I have always enjoyed Areosmith from the earliest days to the present, myklj999. I very much enjoy their older music, but I also like a lot of the newer stuff. I was glad when they got their back together, what was it, back in the mid to late 1980's?

I have been to two of their concerts and they were both very good.

While I do enjoy their music I was disappointed a few years ago when I read their official biography and discovered that there didn't seem to be anything that I would regard as substance to them.

Still, I do like their music.

Musically, they have always been one of my favorite bands. Dream On and Janie's Got a Gun are two of my all time favorite songs. I haven't followed them at all in recent years, but as far as classic rock, they are one of the best.

I saw them in concert when I was about 20 or so...maybe 21. They put on a great show.

I had a friend who had a huge crush on Steven Tyler. If not for the lips that ate China, I could see her point.

I can honestly say they are my all time favorite "recorded" band as opposed to my favorite "live" band which is KISS. Well let's take a look at my Aerosmith collection to date:

Get Your Wings
Toys in the Attic
Rocks
Draw the Line
Night in the Ruts
Permanent Vacation
Pump
Get a Grip
Nine Live
Just Push Play
A Little South of Sanity

They have been such a huge part of my life for the last 35 yrs. Steven Tyler is my performing and vocal hero as well. So much so that in every one of my stage performances I always have a scarf, currently one covered with gold sequins, tied to my mic. Back during my high school years ('73-'77) all my friends thought I was pretty much a freak. While everyone else was listening to Carole King, Elton John and Barry Manilow, I was listening to Aerosmith, KISS and Ozzy with Black Sabbath. Fine, I was a freak, but look who's still around and who isn't!! rasp

The best thing about them is they were always coming up with something new. They weren't afraid to write in different styles and nobody can write witty double entendre lyrics like Steven Tyler!

The are most definitely in the top 10 of the Greatest Rock Bands of All Time.

Count me and hubby in as fans. I was actually listening to "dream on" earlier today because my daughter likes it as well.
35 years is a long time for a band but they weathered it well and adapted to the times.

Hey myklj! Wait till I tell you my story about Aerosmith! Not only are they my
all time favorite rock 'n' roll band, but I have a story about my very personal
experiences with Steven Tyler a/k/a Steven Tallerico! Yup! Steven comes from
Yonkers, NY where I have grown up and still reside. We went to the same high school! He has done numerous interviews and mentioned that he is originally from
Yonkers and went to Roosevelt High School! He is about 5 years older than me I
think. Well, we used to hang out in the same crowd in back of the school and in
the neighborhood where I used to live way back when! He was always in a band, of course! I actually used to talk to him! And, we used to pass "joints" back and
forth! This is a true story! He really is originally from Yonkers, NY and moved
to Boston, MA where he and Joe Perry put together Aerosmith! I'll never forget the
first time I saw one of his videos on MTV! I freaked! I was at my Mom's house in
Florida and I screamed! She came in the room and I told her that I knew this guy!
He looks the same as he did way back all those years ago! He used to wear those
long scarves and long coats then! He just looks older! So that is my story about
Steven Tyler, whose real name is Steven Tallerico and his family still lives here
in Yonkers, NY! And I still LOVE him!

Hey stef! It's true! He really was a nice guy! His Dad was
a music teacher and I just found that out few months ago.
Alot of people from Yonkers knew him and his family. So
evertime I see him on tv it really brings back memories!
