song years band
Over the years, when you're in a band with a catalog like Aerosmith's, you accumulate a lot of instruments to duplicate those songs.
art warrior pistols
I collect firearms, and I've got a Winchester, an Indian rifle. It has tacks for every warrior that was shot, like notches on a pistol, and it's got feathers and beads hanging off it. It's like a work of art.
thinking years play
Five years after Aerosmith got back together, I realized how fragile we are as humans. There was a time I thought we were bulletproof, but then things happened and I came to the realization that I had to play every gig as if it was my last show. You have to start thinking that way, because you never know what's going to happen next.
thinking play together
I think one of the most valuable things Aerosmith has is the energy we produce when we all play together.
thinking people action
I think people have to be more aware of what the repercussions are of their actions.
song thinking age
I think that... the age of just slapping songs into movies, that's done.
fire people use
I was very fascinated by the time when firearms went from being fire sticks to being something people could use to hunt and to survive.
children careers echoes
There are definitely things about 'Legendary Child' that echo the music we did earlier in our career. It's got the right stuff.
feelings firsts inspired
I love to listen to the music that first inspired me - I get that fresh feeling back.
song tired play
Sometimes when a record's done, I'm satisfied and I won't listen back to it for a while 'cause I'm usually pretty tired of the songs. Then I've got to learn them again to play them live, and sometimes it takes a while to realise it's a really good record.
guy together band
A band isn't a band unless they're playing together. Otherwise, it's just five guys that are living off their royalty checks.
powerful mean band
Aerosmith is such a powerful band; I mean, it's like a steam locomotive.
player guitar sound
Describing certain sounds, there's a common language that guitar players have.
creative
For me, L.A. was, and is, a very creative place to be.
