Been a long time since they've rock and rolled.

I downloaded a video of Aerosmith performing 'Big Ten Inch' on a recent SNL . They were certainly rocking there. When ever I watch it, it brings me back to the good 'ol days when I used to see them play at the Springfield (MA) Civic Center....where they really rocked.

Yeah, it appears they really have their act together these days when it comes to playing live, which makes it all the more unfortunate that their creative (studio) output is so pathetic.

I saw them in 1978 at the L.A. Forum and they were atrocious -- short, sloppy show. But those albums in the mid/late 70's sure were amazing, weren't they? Get Your Wings ('74) is probably my favorite, followed closely by Rocks ('76).
