Aerosmith: Support for charity fund
The shows support Tyler’s Janie’s Fund, named after the band’s 1989 hit “Janie’s Got A Gun,” which helps young women in the United States who are victims of abuse and neglect. This year, a portion of the donations raised will also go to organizations working to fight the wildfires in LA.
Just recently, Aerosmith bassist Tom Hamilton made a prediction Interview with Boston radio station WBURthat the band members “could do something” together if Tyler was willing. “We don’t know what the future holds,” he said, “but it won’t involve touring.”
Hamilton also said he “can’t imagine” the band continuing with a new singer, adding: “I’m sure we all have music in our future and it will manifest itself in a way that which we cannot yet plan today. I played in a band with some good friends. We have a bunch of really good songs and we hope to release them soon and hopefully do some gigs.”
