The rock band Aerosmith may really be living on the edge, as reports surface that lead singer Steven Tyler has left the band.

Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry tells the Las Vegas Sun, "Steven quit, as far as I can tell." Frontman Tyler apparently told classicrockmagazine.com that he's moving beyond the band, stating that he's going to be "working on the brand of myself, brand Tyler."

The Boston Herald reported there may be tension between Tyler and the group because the lead singer, who's been in and out of rehab throughout his career, has fallen off the wagon - making it difficult for Aerosmith to get insurance for future tour dates.
