Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry has revealed that frontman Steve Tyler has split the band 'as far as he can tell'.
"Steven quit as far as I can tell," he told the Las Vegas Sun, adding that the singer "has had no contact with me or the other band members".
However, Perry said it's not the end of the band and that they are most likely to try and find a replacement singer for the ageing rocker saying:
"Right now I'm adjusting to how we're going to go on," Perry explained." Aerosmith is such a powerful band, I mean it's like a steam locomotive. You just can't disregard 40 years of four guys who play together as well as they do.
"As far as replacing Steve, it's not just about that, it's also four guys that play extremely well together, and I'm not going to see that go to waste. I really don't know what path it's going to take at this point, but we'll probably find somebody else that will sing in those spots where we need a singer."
It comes after a tough few months for the band; Tyler was taken to hospital in August after falling off-stage at a gig in Dakota- meaning the band had to cancel their US tour. Tyler was also quoted on saying he wanted to concentrate on 'Brand Tyler' in an recent interview with Classic Rock Magazine.
