Steven Tyler and the 'Q'Some of you
out there already know this story. It was sometime in 1982 (my guess).
The band was playing at a club in NYC that I had never been to before
called Privates. Cara, my friend Laurie, and I decided to spend the night
in the City and go see the 'Q' play. It was pretty much just another gig
except I just happened to see Steven Tyler, lead singer for the the then
down-and-out band Aerosmith, sauntering through the club, wearing his
trademark kimono style long open jacket with scarf, exposing his less
than thrilling hairless chest. Within a short time, there he was, larger
than life itself, joining the boys with a little harmonica playing on
a song which escapes me just now, perhaps "Shake, Rattle and Roll", whatever.
All was on target until he decide it was his turn to sing!! No sooner
had a few unintelligible sounds left his mouth, Terry grabbed his own
mike and said "Steve, put that harmonica *back* in your mouth!! Just one
of those famously classic 'Terry Moments' |
