A new rift in the Aerosmith ranks has developed as a result of Steven Tyler making his solo career a bigger priority than the band. Brad Whitford said in a recent interview with Billboard that he and other members of the group feel 'a little abandoned' by their lead singer. Whitford says Tyler's commitment to advancing his own career are getting in the way of doing another Aerosmith tour and that, in Whitford's opinion, '...his fans around the globe want to see him in the context of Aerosmith - and don't really care for whatever he thinks he's going to do'.
Monday (11/9), Tyler announced Janie's Fund, a new initiative and foundation to raise funds to help provide support services and treatment to abused and battered women.
