Greatest Band-On-Too-Many-Goddamned Drugs Story Ever

So Aerosmith is stuck between their late 70s heyday and late 80s resurgence. Meanwhile, the band is recuperating (read: drying out) in a castle in Europe and working on an ill-fated comeback. As the band is chilling, a record plays in the background. A song catches the ear of frontman Steven Tyler, and he says that the band should cover it. Who is this magical band?

“That’s you, fuckhead,” guitarist Joe Perry says.

“No way,” Tyler replies.

“Who the fuck do you think it is? It’s that song you made us get a 109-piece orchestra for.”

Now THAT’S intoxication!

Steve's expression here says: Ouch, who chopped off half my ring finger?

Forgot to say: that charming anecdote was taken from the band's autobiography Walk This Way.

Sad thing is, they sounded so much better when they were on drugs.
