 Steven Tyler: Tells "Rehab was for MEd"
Musician Steven Tyler told to the reporters that he sought the "safe environment" of rehab last month to recover from more than just surgery. He was fighting a dependency on pain and sleep medication.
Steven Tyler said, "To have your feet done, to have your leg done, you have to be on narcotics. You have to be on sleep aids at night. I don't know about Joe (Perry) but I was off and running and I didn't like the me that was me".
Tyler wrote in a statement in late May that he checked into a rehab facility in search of a "safe environment" to recover from several foot surgeries and physical therapy. Steven Tyler said that the procedures were to correct longtime foot injuries resulting from his physical performances as the singer for the blues-rock band.
"This was a month ago, so I just put the brakes on and checked into detox and just pulled the plug on all of it," he told this to the reporters on Friday night at the Hard Rock Cafe, where he and his bandmates were promoting "Guitar Hero 3: Aerosmith Edition".
Steven Tyler, 60, was known for heavy drug and alcohol abuse in the 1970s and early 1980s, but completed rehabilitation in 1986, after which the band Aerosmith enjoyed a successful revival. |
