Steven Tyler Is In the Hospital

During a performance of "Love in an Elevator" at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota last night, Steven Tyler fell backwards off the stage and onto a few audience members. (Insert a zillion "going doooown" jokes here).

The Associated Press says Steven suffered minor head, neck and shoulder owwies. Steven was immediately airlifted to the hospital after being examined by an on-site doctor. A rep for the Buffalo Chip Campground, where the concert took place, said Steven was all jokes and laughed about it afterwards. The rep added, "He does a lot of dancing on the stage and he does a lot of stuff with his mike stand. He put his stand down and twirled around and stepped backwards off the stage. It was an unfortunate end to an extraordinary evening."

Last month, Aerosmith was forced to cancel a bunch of shows after Steven effed up his leg while jumping onstage. Their bassist Tom Hamilton had to get non-invasive surgery and was temporarily replaced by David Hull for part of the tour. AND Joe Perry had knee surgery back in March. Can someone please send these dudes an emergency shipment of Three Wolf Moon t-shirts?! They should be required to wear them at all times!

I believe that Steven Tyler is going to outlive us all, so it won't be long before he's thrusting his crotch bone and shimmying like he needs a dollar in a serious way.

Many in the crowd were surprised and thought it was part of the act. Steven Tyler was known for heavy drug and alcohol abuse in the 1970s, but now, he was known as a selling point of their motorcycle business. The most "rock 'n' roll" vehicle is definitely the motorcycle, and instead of buying a Harley like everyone else, you might look into Dirico Motorcycles. The products of Dirico Motorcycles are high end, hand built bikes, and they cost a bit. The company has been getting good reviews, but gets it's biggest buzz from its celebrity investor – Steven Tyler.

I saw Aerosmith in 1978 and Tyler & Perry were so fucked up they just staggered around the stage. Awful performance.

AC/DC was the opening act and they blew Aerosmith off the stage! Bon Scott was so badass!

Steven Tyler? No shit? I thought that was Saint Ange doing a little karaoke!

I think he's so thin b/c he's vegan.
But I'm getting old, too, so maybe I'm thinking of someone else...

This is OT, but has anyone ever been picked to do a Arbitron survey? We might be picked, they will call us in a hour.

It looks like it involves carrying some kind of device that picks up tv and radio signals. Hum.

My kid's chomping at the bit...'cause they will pay him as long as he wears this device.

I told him not to get his hopes up, 'cause they might not pick us if they have everyone they need..

Good for him being able to do concerts and all, but geeze...you'd think he'd tone it down a bit and..perhaps eat a meal once in a while? He's not 25 anymore...

I hope he's ok. With him being so thin, breaking a hip or a head injury will do him in...

Steven Tyler refuses to join Pepaw-ville so I have to give him credit for that. It's like a twilight zone episode or something. The frozen 80's!

He's one of those people who weighs about no pounds. He needs to eat! You know why his legs gave way? Because he doesn't have any! When you see the guy on TV, he looks like a bundle of sticks. Have a sandwich.

You're awesome Steven, but take it easy for Chrissakes! I love all you guys but you're not exactly spring chickens anymore.

I love how his rep, who was no doubt not there, qualifies the evening as "extraordinary". I'm sure it takes a vivid imagination, a trip in the way-back machine to revisit the 70's, and maybe a little marijuana to find his happy place and say such things about Aerosmith.

I've seen Aerosmith once. And it was not a pleasant experience.

My first time on Acid.
Steven Tylers face was peeling off right infront of me.

Regardless, I love Aerosmith!!!

Tyler didn't fall...he jumped off stage:

LOL. I am having a mental image of Steven attached to the side of a bus by his lips like those suction/Garfield & Simpson toys that were popular a few years back.

Thank the lord he fell off backwards - imagine the injuries in the mosh pit if he fell into the crowd mouth first.

Lucky grandpappy to be airlifted without being critically injured.

Aerosmith sucks hard live.

I went to a show once and before it my roommate said he fell asleep at one of their shows, I thought he was joking but I fell asleep when I went!
Tyler does not even let them sell beer at most shows and they play mostly their new generic crud that all sounds like "Angel" yuck.

Pshh. Whatevs. If you don't use it, you lose it. Good for him for still being able to rock out! I'm more concerned about the "head injury" than him breaking a hip, considering all the "head injury deaths" lately...

Btw, Sir Paul still does do concerts and good on him!

Isn't a "buffalo chip" sort of like a "cow patty"? hahaha

He's 61 years old. He better be careful or he could break a hip.

ITA!!! I've always loved Steven. And for all the people who say he's too old to be doing what he's doing and should hang it up, I very politely say "fuck you". Lord knows, when I'm his age I can only fucking HOPE that I love something so much that I'm still doing it. If you have a problem watching a man in his 60's perform, then by all means, don't. There are plenty of people still willing to pay money to see him, who gives a shit how old he is??

Back in the 70s, it wasn't considered a good show if Tyler didn't fall off the stage or punch Joe Perry.

actually it's a HUGE thing. there's like 500,000 motorcycle enthusiasts who show up in sturgis and more than 100,000 of them stay at the buffalo chip. it sounds really crappy and like a tiny venue but this is a big deal and probably one of the biggest shows they'll play all year.

How old IS he? Well, kadooz to him for being active. I was going to be snarky about it, but he obviously loves what he's doing, so if it makes him and his fans happy, that's cool.

We used to laugh at my mom watching the doo-wop reunions on PBS, but my SIL saw Morrissey at Carnegie Hall and I was jealous, so now I'm one to talk.

Every performer has fallen off a stage, at any age.

He'll be alright.

Rock on, Steven!

Methinks Tyler has enough residual drugs in his system from decades of use to provide significant analgesia from his current injuries.

And yeah, it's been time to hang it up for a while now. Can you imagine the Beatles still dragging their sorry asses onstage at their ages? All two of them left? Pitiful.

If that's all that happened to him at Sturgis.... well, he lucked out.

I hate to say anyone is too old for something, but maybe he can tone it down a bit before he breaks a hip.

All the dudes in the audience are as old as Steven. They don't wanna rupture a disc trying to catch him.
