AEROSMITH Drummer Could Risk Career If He Tours

October 10, 2005

Launch Radio Networks reports: If an online post is to be believed, AEROSMITH drummer Joey Kramer is in a lot worse shape than anyone knows. "Therockojpp" at the fan-run AeroFANatic web site wrote that he spoke to guitarist Brad Whitford at an autograph session at the First Act Guitar Studio in Boston on Saturday (October 8). Rumor has it that Kramer might miss some of the early shows on the AEROSMITH tour due to a shoulder injury, and Whitford supposedly said that Kramer was willing to try and play, but his doctors said he'd be risking the rest of his career if he went out on the road. There's been no official comment from AEROSMITH on Kramer or his health, but the Boston Globe reported that Kramer's son Jesse might sit in until his dad is ready to go.

AEROSMITH will release a DualDisc called "Rockin' the Joint" on October 25, with live audio on one side and concert video on the other. The band's fall/winter tour, with special guest LENNY KRAVITZ, kicks off October 30 at the Mohegan Sun Casino in Uncasville, Connecticut.
