Leavings
So I just heard that Steven Tyler is leaving or has left Aerosmith and Josh Todd from Buckcherry is being considered as a replacement. And in other news, guitarist John Frusciante has officially left Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Todd makes sense if they're trying to continue without Tyler, but I'm not a fan of the situation in general. They apparently offered the spot to Lenny Kravitz, who respectfully declined. I'm haven't been into any of Aerosmith's recent stuff, so it wouldn't bother me if they were calling it a day, but I would prefer that their legacy end here instead of continuing on to tarnish my memories of one of the biggest bands of my day.
I'm not upset about Frusciante's departure from RHCP, and even think they could be better off without him. But then, it is hard to imagine them without that sound.
That is all.
