The ultimate rock warriors, they gave it all onstage for 50 years, RIP Steven's voice!

Um that's not Aerosmith, it's Steven Tyler and Joe Perry with Chris and Rich Robinson of the Black Crowes, also did Michael Strahan actually say "The Aerosmith" at the beginning? Listen up Gen Z, research is key!! I am 99% positive a younger person put this article together.
