Rock fans are speculating if Guns N’ Roses’ Axl Rose will replace Steven Tyler in Aerosmith. The intriguing possibility has got fans excited. Axl Rose is known for his powerhouse performances with Guns N’ Roses, and he has already proven he can step into big shoes, as he filled in for Brian Johnson during AC/DC’s 2016 tour.
During Aerosmith’s concert at UBS Arena in Elmont, New York on September 9th last year, frontman Steven Tyler fractured his larynx forcing the rest of the tour to be called off. The band recently announced that the band is officially retiring from touring. They have canceled the rest of what would’ve been their farewell tour as Steven Tyler struggles to recuperate from the vocal injury. This has led to speculation if Axl Rose could step in as the frontman for Aerosmith.
Axl Rose could be a good candidate to replace Steven Tyler
Axl Rose’s run with AC/DC was spectacular. When Brian Johnson had to step down due to hearing issues, Axl didn’t only just fill in, but he brought a new energy to the band’s performances. Critics and fans praised his ability to adapt to AC/DC’s distinct sound while still bringing his unique flair.
Given this impressive track record, it’s no wonder that Axl Rose is being considered as a strong candidate to step in for Steven Tyler, if the need arises and the band choose to tour again in the future after retiring. Steven Tyler has been the heart and soul of Aerosmith, and he has entertained fans with his legendary voice and charismatic stage presence.
However, recent health issues and the grueling demands of touring have raised questions about his ability to keep up with the band’s rigorous schedule.
Axl Rose has proven his ability to step into another frontman’s shoes. Thus, he is seemingly a natural fit. His vocal range, energetic stage presence, and rock ‘n’ roll persona align perfectly with Aerosmith’s style.
Well, this is all speculative at this point. Neither Axl Rose nor Aerosmith has confirmed any plans for such a lineup change. But the idea alone has generated excitement and debate among fans. Axl Rose stepping in for Steven Tyler would be a monumental moment in rock history, blending the legacies of two iconic bands.
