The Joey Kramer - Aerosmith Debacle

Written By Allyson B. Crawford

I am not even sure how to explain this sad story. The other day, Aerosmith drummer Joey Kramer filed a lawsuit against the rest of the band. He argued that the rest of the band was keeping him from performing with them at the Las Vegas residency and the upcoming Grammy performance. Joey was sick for awhile and his drum tech John Douglas has been behind the kit.

Kramer says the rest of Aerosmith made him audition for his job with click tracks and they didn't let him back in the band because he lacked "energy."

A judge threw out the lawsuit.

When Kramer showed up to the Grammy rehearsals yesterday, security guards kept him from entering the building and a video of the entire thing was pretty sad.

There's a lot going on that we don't know. In fact, I'd bet a lot of money that there is a huge story here. Aerosmith released a statement saying they want Joey Kramer with them for the MusiCares award presentation during the Grammy awards telecast. I guess we'll see if Kramer shows up for that or not.
