The Bad Boys and their kids were right up front. Natch. Also, New England
Revolution kicker cutie Brian Dunseth was there with his little sister,
Whitney.

Steven and Joe Rock at Peppers and
Foo Show
Steven and Joe took time out of the studio to check out the Red
Hot Chili Peppers and Foo Fighters show on July 16 at the Tweeter Center in
Boston! After a mind-blowing set by the Foo Fighters, Steven and Joe trekked
backstage to congratulate the Foo on an incredible performance! After chatting
with Dave Grohl (lead singer) and Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer),
Steven and Joe wanted to catch up with Anthony Kiedis (RHCP frontman) and Flea
(RHCP bass player) before they stormed the stage. The RHCP security informed
Steven and Joe that Anthony and Flea were in "pre-show mode,"
meaning that they were spending time alone to completely focus their energies
towards their upcoming performance. Steven then said "Show me where
Anthony is…I'd like to share my insight with him in getting ready for a
show." Moments later, Steven offered Anthony pre-show insight. Must have
worked. Post-show, people couldn't stop praising the RHCP's gig as "one
of the best the Chili Peppers has ever done!"

Liz Smith Column...Cyrinda's At It
Again.
By: Liz Smith
The Rock Scene, De-Glammed
New York- When I attended the Academy Awards several years
ago, I sat in front of a very attractive longhaired man who tapped me on the
shoulder and said, "I just love you and your column." I was pleased,
naturally, but didn't have a clue who he was. Moments later, I saw him agian-onstage-
performing in a ring of fire. It was Steven Tyler of Aerosmith! (I remember
then that we had run a long column on Tyler's beautiful actress daughter, Liv
Tyler-setting some erroneous gossip straight-not long before.)
Now comes a book, "Dream On-Living On The Edge With Steven Tyler and
Aerosmith," from Berkley Boulevard Press. Author Cyrinda Foxe-Tyler tells
all the inside dish here and includes everybody from Andy Warhol to Al Pacino.
There will be 16 pages of never-before-seen photos as well.
Foxe-Tyler begins her book by saying that when she first met Steven Tyler,
"He was wearing a long, lacy outfit, and he was coughing up blood."
This is an EX-WIFE's -eye view of sex, drugs, rock n' roll and how,
"drugs destroyed us all."

Steven and Joe Sail Boston
Steven and Joe have been spending brief moments out
of the studio to greet the Tall Ships 2000 Race Series that hailed from
Bermuda and is making it's way up to Boston! Noted as the largest gathering of
Tall Ships ever in the United States, the Tall Ships will descend into Boston
Harbor led by the USS Constitution. Although Steven and Joe were on separate
boats while indulging in this historic event, they did have cellular phones on
hand to communicate with each other - what ever in the world could they be
talking about while Tall Ships go sailing by? Getting back into the studio to
work on a new track!

The Tylers spotted at the
Independence Mall in Kingston
Today in the Boston Herald:
I spy summer fun
Our spies spied ``The Perfect Storm'' hunk George Clooney -
who can't seem to tear himself away from Massachusetts - taking in the play,
``How I Fell In Love,'' in one of the five rows at the very intimate Nikos
Stage at the Williamstown Theater Festival. George
watched the action alone from Row C. Coincidentally -
not! - the play stars Traylor Howard of ``Me, Myself & Irene'' and ``Two
Guys and a Girl'' fame, who George reportedly is dating. Rhea
Perlman, aka Mrs. Danny DeVito, dashed out to grab some popcorn and Cokes at
the 7 p.m. showing of ``Chicken Run'' at the new General Cinema in the Fenway
the other night. Speaking of movies, Aerosmith's main
man, Steven Tyler; his wife, Teresa; and a dude who looked like songwriter
Desmond Child of ``Livin' La Vida Loca'' and ``Dude Looks Like A Lady'' fame
took in ``The Perfect Storm'' at the Independence Mall in Kingston. Perhaps
it was a little break from a songwriting session at Steven's South Shore
manse. . . .

F1 Boston
The new racetrack place that Brad is doing called 'F1 Boston' [www.f1boston.com]
is in Braintree MA.
It is really cool. It has 2 go cart tracks, one being easier
than the other. You have to suit up just like a real race car driver, jump
suit, helmet, neck brace, the whole nine yards. You have to buy a license to
drive. They have different kinds of license's to buy. Annual ones cost $25.00
and then each time you come in you pay either 20 or 25 dollars depending on
which track you go on. You get a 5 lap practice run, then you go onto a 10 lap
race. They have a score board with everyone's name on it, just like a real
race track...
The place is really beautiful. It has a restaurant, game
room, pool hall and a full bar. But, they do give you a bracelet when you come
in and if you order a drink at the bar they cut it off and you CAN NOT race.
Which is a good thing. They even have function halls to rent. In the front
lobby they have a full size drag race car, not sure if it was a model or the
real thing. Pictures and televisions going with race car stuff. Didn't see any
of our favorite guys, but the guy that was telling us the rules for the racing
did tell us that Brad and Joe are in there all the time. Any one that comes to
visit should go check it out, its not really far from Mount Blue....

Kerrang Magazine Article
This was in Kerrang this week. The
article was about the A to Z of rock and roll decadence.
U IS FOR UNDERAGE
When you're a successful rock star, all notions of decency tend to be tossed
away like a tv through a hotel window. Rock stars inevitably attract younger
fans, and many don't let something as trivial as morals get in the way of
there libido.
One man guilty of just that was Aerosmith front man Steven Tyler. According to
Stephen Davis's official biography Walk this way, Tyler gave little more than
an autograph to a girl who had barely stepped into the spot light of puberty.
The year was 1975. 18 mounths of constant road work had elevated (the smiths)
into the big league. Back stage at a successful Seattle show the 27 year front
mans eye was caught by a 14 year old girl named Diana Hall " a skinny
young mall- chick who was beautiful and had more legs than a bucket of
chicken". " she was there with a bunch of her girlfriends and they
were being bi sexual to get my attention, and I was aroused to no end Tyler
told Davis". "Nothing turns me on like being in a room with 2 women.
All men think about it but few have done it. It is the most beautiful thing,
like being between mothers breasts". The pair fell in love and Tyler
moved her into her Boston apartment so that they could be together- but only
after Halls parents signed her over to Tyler as her guardian, A costly legal
process. unfortunately, there relationship crashed to its end after three
years, when Tyler drug addiction took hold and his young consort fell
pregnant. they split up shortly after the abortion. "Diana lost her
childhood," recounted the singer sadly," and I lost my mind."
W IS FOR WANKING
quote from Steve Tyler
Do you jerk off? Yes, I jerk off like you do man.

Joe at the KISS concert
Joe Perry took time out of the studio to check out KISS and Ted Nugent at the
Tweeter Center in Boston on June 13! When longtime friends Joe and Ted Nugent
reunited backstage, the two chatted it up about Ted's upcoming book entitled
Ted Nugent: Gods, Guns & Rock and Roll. Be sure to snag a copy of Ted's
book when it hits the shelves! Backstage, Joe also made it to the hallowed
halls of KISS' inner sanctum and hung out with Gene, Paul, Ace and Peter clad
in full make-up and all! Before KISS hit the stage, Joe and the band
reminisced about the days gone by in '74 when KISS opened up for Aerosmith in
Detroit! The show was spectacular and of course, all had a good time!
