Accidents

Aerosmith's Steven Tyler hospitalized after fall.

Steven Tyler's onstage strut is a dangerous thing. So dangerous, in fact, that Tyler has been hospitalized after falling off stage during a concert at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota. The Associated Press reports that after the sound system failed during "Love in an Elevator," the 61-year-old rock star danced around to entertain the crowd, but fell backward onto some fans from the stage's catwalk. Evidently, the Aerosmith frontman sustained minor head and neck injuries and a shoulder injury of uncertain seriousness. After the fall, an on-site physician attended to Tyler, and later he was flown to Rapid City Regional Hospital, the only major hospital in the region.
