Happy Birthday Steven Tyler
Steven Victor Tallarico was born on March 26, 1948 in Manhattan, NYC to parents Giuseppe and Maria. His family moved to The Bronx and Yonkers. (No one is really sure where the f*ck Yonkers is.) His father Giuseppe ran an Italian deli and was known all over Yonkers as ‘The Sausage King’.
Tyler attended Roosevelt H.S in Yonkers, but was expelled from the school due to drug use. He later graduated from Quintano’s school for Young Drug Addicts. Years later, Tyler returned to Roosevelt High School and bought it. He renamed it Tyler High School.
Aerosmith
For some odd reason Steven migrated to Boston where he and the others formed Aerosmith. The band’s debut album was released in 1973 and they soon became one of the biggest bands in the world selling out stadiums and millions of records.
Due to excessive drug use, Steven Tyler and Joe Perry were known as ‘The Toxic Twins’, the band became lost and eventually fell apart. Steven had a bunch of kids who became actresses and models. There was something involving Todd Rundgren, underage girlfriends, abortions, falling off stages, snorting $6 million dollars of cocaine, rehab and rebirth.
Silver
At the age of 68, Tyler won a Silver Medal in Trampoline for team USA, at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio. Steven was a trampoline champion in High School but gave it up to pursue a career in music. “The singing thing worked out pretty well, but I always had a longing to bounce.” Tyler trained with renowned trampoline coach, Boris Vdavichenka.
Tyler is widely referred to as one of Rock’s best singers and coolest frontmen of all time. What a F*cking band Aerosmith is and was! Is Aerosmith the greatest American Rock n Roll Band of all time!? You be the judge. Happy Birthday Steven!
