Steven Tyler<\/a> doesn\u2019t really strike people as the most sentimental artist in the world when he first starts singing. <\/p>\n There are countless frontmen who have been able to make you feel their heartache every time they step up to the microphone, but considering the fact that half of Aerosmith\u2019s entire catalogue is about sex to some degree, it\u2019s not like Tyler is the most likely to talk about puppy love or anything like that. But there were always people who tended to touch him in a much more profound way than anyone else whenever he saw them in their element onstage.<\/p>\n Because for Tyler, the performance aspect of rock and roll was about a lot more than a bunch of catchy tunes being played onstage. He wanted to create a spectacle whenever Aerosmith got out there, and while there were more than a few times when he was accused of stealing moves from Mick Jagger, that didn\u2019t matter to him so long as he could still manage to get himself across the stage.<\/p>\n He had already learned the hard way that he wasn\u2019t supposed to be the kind of frontman who sat down on a stool and delivered a song, and when looking at the live footage of them playing, Tyler wouldn\u2019t have had it any other way, either. There were moments where they would bring the piano out for him to play, but the greatest part of any show was seeing him throw every single ounce of himself into the performance whenever playing \u2018Walk This Way<\/a>\u2019 or \u2018Love in an Elevator\u2019.<\/p>\n And that sense of dedication to his craft was exactly what Bruce Springsteen was doing whenever he performed as well. The E Street Band are practically a well-oiled machine every single time they put on a concert, and even though \u2018The Boss\u2019 is getting up there in rock and roll years, there isn\u2019t a single show that he plays where he doesn\u2019t want to be absolutely drenched in sweat by the end of the night.<\/p>\n But the real testament to Springsteen\u2019s writing was getting to see him in his most natural environment. The thought of having a Springsteen show on Broadway might have felt like a strange combination when he first started fiddling with the idea, but even if he only had an acoustic guitar in his hands, you could feel that sense of intimacy whenever he talked about growing up in New Jersey and writing songs like \u2018Growin\u2019 Up\u2019 with that same twinkle in his eye that he has today.<\/p>\n
