Buftex Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 http://www.theonion.com/content/news/steve...r_laid_off_from Tyler was reportedly informed of the decision 45 minutes before the band was scheduled to go onstage for a performance, and was told to pack up his belongings and turn in his Aerosmith "wings" pin before the audience arrived. "Tying a scarf to a microphone stand is unfortunately no longer a marketable skill," IndustryWeek editor David Blanchard said. "To compete in today's job market, you need to diversify your skill set. Someone who can not only sing, but also play tambourine and haul heavy equipment, is infinitely more valuable to a company." It is a cruel world!

I don't know, 136 views, and one response (yours)...maybe all the Aersomith fanatics here (The Dean, Ric, Chef, etc) are in shock!

Very smooth. Agree 100%. The content of the FCC one (stating nudity on network TV is fine so long as it is Alyson Hannigan from "How I met your Mother") isn't the best on the site, but the performances by all involved are excellent.
