Steven Tyler says he did drugs with Perry in 2008

NEW YORK (AP) -April 27, 2011

In an interview with Rolling Stone, /*Tyler*/ says he and Joe Perry did drugs together in 2008 after years of sobriety. Aerosmith had been working on a new album, which never developed.

Tyler says Perry was so impaired by snorting prescription pills, he couldn't even play his instrument. Tyler says he was no better - he couldn't sing.

Perry declined to comment to Rolling Stone and didn't return a request for comment from The Associated Press on Tuesday.

Tyler is now a judge on "American Idol." He's releasing an autobiography, "Does the Noise in My Head Bother You?" next month.

The 63-year-old rocker says he's sober now.
