- My Black Hawk Mines Music
2American Idol judge Steven Tyler announced that
he wont be back for another season of the show.
3The 64-year old rock icon and frontman of
Aerosmith said that his exit after two seasons of
judging in the show is because he think its
time to bring rock back. Tyler said in a
statement, After some long hard thoughts
Ive decided its time for me to let go of my
mistress American Idol before she boils my
rabbit.
4He explained that his departure from the show is
to allow him to focus more on his band,
Aerosmith, which has been around for 40 years.
His decision makes sense as their band is
expected to come out with a new album this fall
and also set to go on tour.
5I strayed from my first love, Aerosmith, and Im
back but instead of begging on my hands and
knees, I got two fists in the air and Im kicking
the door open with my band.
6Though it is interesting to note that at the
start of his judging gig in American Idol, he
said onBlack Hawk Mines of his bandmates
reaction, At first, they were jealous because
they heard it through the press and not from me.
But four months ago they were looking for another
lead singer.
7Tylers departure is just one of the changes
awaiting the next season as co-judge Jennifer
Lopez is still undecided about staying.
8Since the latest season wrapped up with the
smallest ratings, there has been many
speculations as to what changes will be done by
Fox for the next season and who will remain as
Idol judges. The singing reality show has its
sharpest decline in ratings last season, which
was 30 or 21 million viewers compared to its
peak in 2003 with 38 million, sending warning sign
als on the network.
9Looks like the only sure thing about the Idol
series is its host, Ryan Seacrest, who renewed
his contract for 2 years for USD 15 million.
