Steven Tyler!! Boston  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere ON STEVEN TYLER!

Boston is ON! yeah, yeah!

There is nothing like being in this city. When you  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere in
Boston coming from wherever- is there not just an energy that you  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere flowing
through your blood?

you know...uh..you know Aerosmith, we  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere here like what
you know, -71 -72 to get an apartment,  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere on Comm Ave. (Commonwealth Avenue) and then I got, I had a family and I had marshfields and so forth, so this is home

I was gonna  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere you about that because when you were super
young and you were in New York right?

yeah I  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere up in Yonkers new York and in the Bronx and stuff like that
New York boy- and the family  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere a resort called TROW-RICO lodge up in Sunapee. It was like you know 20 beds , you know..

-yeah?..

Four cabins and I  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere up on that land
well that

So I was in New York City, apartment buildings to the country. And I
i I've actually spoke about this , they go, you know
well, you know what's with the country record, well you know I grew up in
Sunapee there was 1200 people in my town where I grew up

Wow! So that's a far cry from New York City!

-Far cry,

so what...

that was summer and then winter was New York, so I got the best of all for it.

-You did!

and then you came to Boston and when you  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere to Boston it was for your music career right you wanted to advance what was going on musically , what  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere you here specifically?

-Well, uhm when I  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere in...in Yonkers and
had bands in 69 , 68 we were on a label called Columbia we  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere called the Boston sound because Boston had you know J. Geils and it was it was a happening place.
so when I  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere up in Sunapee, I  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere all my bands in New York. I hitchhiked up to New England, New Hampshire,

I bet that has a bunch of stories of its own the hitchhiking!

Oh my god I hitchhiked all the way from the end of Long Island to
up there.  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere me like nine hours; but I got up there and Joe had a band called the Jam Band at a place called the Barn and I played with all my other bands and we just  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere I said I'd be, at least, I'd be
the drummer at the time and let's move to Boston and Joe's mom had a bus and was going to get'im an apartment and the rest is history. Now you know 1325 Comm Ave is now... got a plaque!

- I was just gonna say you uh was it a couple
years ago went back to visit?

-yeah

-and you  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere to the basement where you guys used to rehearse!

- yeah

- What was that like? Was that just a million memories all at once coming back to you when you stepped into that place?

- we actually  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere up outside the building 1325,  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere the
street down, and the "T" and and we played and I turned around while we were's three songs in and said you see that stoop right there? That's where Joe and I used to  askbroughtcamedecidedfeelgrewhadislandleftlivedmovedsetshutsmokeTookwaswentwere joints all the time and wrote: "we all live on the edge of town where we all living.." but it was more of a West Campus one it was the girls dorm that a guy that ran it at the time.
-yeah
-let us rehearse down there and the rest is history.
