Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry seems to finally get it ... Steven Tyler's gig on "American Idol" is good for the band.
Perry was at LAX yesterday when he was asked how he felt about Tyler
returning to "A.I." as a judge. Perry replied, "It's tough having your
lead singer have a day job .. but ya know, what can you do?"
But when asked if he would ever PERFORM on the show ... Perry said, "Yeah, that could probably happen."
It's a big change for Perry ... who slammed the show back in 2010 as an advertising machine that's only "one step above Ninja Turtles."
So why is Perry coming around on Idol? Might have something to do with Aerosmith planning to release a new album in May ... and some PR on the "Idol" machine could have a huge impact on sales.

I a big Aerosmith fan, so I'm happy they are at least getting along again. Joe has reason to be upset though. It has been 11 years since their last album of original material and Steven has been seen as the primary reason for the big delay. As long as they keep making music and touring I'm fine with Steven on AI.
Money talks.
Typical hypocrite. Aerosmith's best song was Dream On, and they haven't written another great one since then, and that was written in '73.
Tyler was on TV last night saying how a HUGE jump in sales of Aerosmith albums has occurred. I guess big money can make someone quite content.
You hit the nail on the head, TMZ. Yeah, I do believe the upcoming album IS the reason Joe Perry is accepting Steven being on Amer. Idol.

Or it could be that he simply gave an honest answer you mornons.
First of all, Why Diss the Turtles? 2nd, Throwing the Ninja Turtles Under the Bus doesn't change a thing. 3rd. Way to break Michelangelo's little ninja heart.
Boycott American Idol produced by ryan seacrest who brought us Ktrashians/Jenners and keep airing that staged, fake, disgusting, unintelligent crap.
"could" have a huge impact on record sales???
wake up TMZ!!
it has already, and joe perry knows it!
Joe might not like AI, but it beats sitting in your attic with a bottle of Jack blowing holes in the roof with a shotgun.
He already was on American Idol. He should stop with all the bitching.
