i know our dear friend Steven Tyler doesn't like us to draw too much attention to the fact that he posts to the board or involve him in discussions of his day job, but i hope he will participate in this thread about the new album out in August, and the Get A Grip outtake "Legendary Child" that was debuted as the album's lead single on last night's American Idol finale:

"It's pushed back because too many people are releasing those weeks, and we don't want to step on their release dates," said Tyler. "So we said, 'You know what, we got the goods, ain't no doubt about [it], we'll wait a couple months.'"
