Matt Share of THE PHOENIX has recently done an interview with AEROSMITH guitarist Joe Perry.
You are Joe Perry from Aerosmith — Joe “Fucking” Perry. That’s gotta count for something. Is that band still an active entity?
No, no. I think those guys are all busy with other things. And, well [drummer] Paul [Caruso] passed away last year. That was really hard. I don’t handle things like that very well. So everything is really about Aerosmith right now. We’re getting ready to make a new album, which is the last album on our contract with Columbia. And we’re just playing so well together that I’m excited to get us all in a room together with some new songs. I will say that one of the best parts of the European tour was being able to get up on stage with Tom Jones in front of like 70,000 people at Wembley Stadium for that Princess Diana concert. He was amazing, and that was a real thrill. I mean, I just practiced with the band, and I didn’t even see Tom until we were on stage. It was just a great experience to play with a legend like that.
