AEROSMITH STAR KRAMER HITS BACK AT FAN COMPLAINTS
AEROSMITH drummer JOEY KRAMER has used the group's website to hit back at fans who have started complaining the act has gone soft live by playing too many ballads. The rockers have been inundated with moans and groans from devotees after asking fans to request tunes for the Aerosmith setlist as they tour with MOTLEY CRUE. And Kramer felt the need to speak out after fans used the invitation to criticise the group's cigarette-lighter-waving anthems.
In a message posted on the fan club website aeroforceone.com, Kramer states, "I disagree with anyone who is saying there are too many slow songs in the set. A great song is a great song. It's a very difficult thing to try and please everyone all the time and we do the best we can to put a good show together to make everyone happy. "People who complain can direct their comments (from) now on directly to me, and I can take them into consideration. And believe me, they will be read."

Maybe Aero can cover SOL. The Euros seemed to love it and it certainly meets Aero's quality standard IMHO.
What say you JB? Is SOL good enough suckass ballad for Aerosmith? |

The guy is an ass-wipe who stated that Aerosmith(and I am well aware some here beleive this) is much better than the Stones. I have no respect for him at all. To be fair, Tyler and Perry have atleast been on record saying the Stones were great.

Kramer was never a rock fan period. He was only really into jazz. And now power ballads. |

I loathe Aerosmith.
And I loathe anyone who sticks up for power balladry.
Power balladry is for pussies. |

I'll take the heat.
I will not be shook as an Aerosmith fan.
Most anyone in New England is of this mindset, as
they got their start in '70 as a high school/VFW/Army Base/Rod & Gun Club, 300 gig a year bar band, now evolving into a larger band. Sound familiar?
Don't be so quick to kill 'em, as the band you all worship right here is just about the same thing.
Don't like everything they have, but I can stand most of it.
Ballads, hey, gotta feed the kids.
Talk to me about Stones ballads folks..most of us here run at the thought of them, however, they can be as sugar filled as anything 'smitty has sang.
Besides, anyone who survives a gas station fire engulfing accident, and is around to answer critics of his music is fine with me.
There, I've said it, go ahead, blast away!

This is , obstensibly a boards for Stoneaholics....we are suppose to love the band, despite their long decline. I simply feel those who need to tell us how grear AS, The Who, Dylan, etc, are, should post it on the appropriate board(s). I resent being told that a particular artist is as good as the Stones on a fucking Rolling Stones message board!!! I hope Joey Krammer sucks dog balls for his slagging the Stones-fuck him!!! |

With your help, I am sure the Stones will eventually get over it. |

SOL may suck,but at least they didn't get Desmond Child to co write it as most of these as-whipes do (obviously,I'm including the totally banal Bon Jovi) !

PS SOL was suprisingly well performed in Europe. |

The simplest way to put it is...Aerosmith are a bunch of pussies. It's beyond argument. That's just reality.
As with Kiss, I enjoyed Aerosmith when I was in 3rd grade. I also enjoyed Josie & The Pussycats, Happy Days, Spagetti-os, Swanson frozen tv dinners, Chef Boyardee Pizza kits, model rockets, and plastic toy soldiers.
Eventually, I went to 4th grade and left all that kiddie stuff behind.

Why don't you just face it? Your boys blow.
Look, it's no big deal really. We all have our guilty pleasures. And I have relatives in Woburn...I know how you New Englanders stick together.
It's fine by me if you wanna pollute your ears with that pussyass crap. It's fine by me if you wanna sully your good reputation by sticking up for a band of raging pussies. You're the one that has to look at yourself in the mirror.

Hey, I like what I see in the mirror.
So don't some chicks I know.
Some of the rock bands I like are not your cup of tea, no biggie. Won't keep me up, sure won't effect you.
I can answer this like I answer my 17 year old, you like your chainsaw rock, I like my classic rock, good for you!

I saw A-smith 2 years ago in concert. Good show. Not as good as the Who but pretty fun anyway. |
