American Idol: Is My Book “Pitchy?” |

Steve Tyler, Aerosmith rocker and American Idol celebrity judge, has an autobiography coming out in May. The 63-year old Demon of Screamin' promises that his book, Does th e Noise In My Head Bother You? delivers "all the unexpurgated, brain-jangling tales of debauchery, sex & drugs, transcendence & chemical dependence you will ever want to hear."

The great poet Wordsworth defines poetry as "emotion recollected in tranquility" and, in Tyler's case, both sweet emotion and memory rock on. Tyler reflects: “Doing a book, you bring up things that you didn’t remember happened, and as soon as you do, it opens up that place in your mind that you spew out onto the pages."

It's hard to narrow down the highlights of Steve's current incarnation on Idol. Is it the leers? the comments? the clever scarves? For many, the supreme Idol / Tyler moment will always be contestant Danny Gokey's gawd-awful closing howl of Aerosmith's classic, Dream On.

Steve is not the first bad boy from Boston to write his life story – Joey Kramer, Aerosmith's drummer, published Hit Hard: A Story of Hitting Rock Bottom which chronicled his battle with drugs and depression.
