Aerosmith has a lot of Worcester connection. Joe Cohen, an active Worcester native, is bassist Tom Hamilton's father in law, which is how I got to meet him a couple of times. I stayed in a house at The Cape once, owned by Joe Cohen, and the house was littered with candids of the band hanging out at the house. At the time, I was a huge fan.

Funny story: Back in the early '80s when I was in high school, my friend was bumper riding home on his skateboard (grabbing a car's bumper and crouching down for a free ride). After going a ways, he decided to sneak a look at his host. When he looked, he saw that it was Aerosmith, heading up Salisbury Street, probably toward the Cohen's.
