Rock legend Steven Tyler will be on a 30-day vocal rest after sustaining vocal cord injuries during an Aerosmith show in Long Island. The iconic singer, who concealed his discomfort during the performance, underwent an X-ray in Boston, revealing that his vocal cords were severely damaged. As a result, he can only produce “squeaks” and won’t be able to sing for a month.

In a message to fans, Tyler expressed his regret, stating, “I’m heartbroken to say I have gotten severe doctor’s orders not to sing for the next thirty days.” The injury occurred early in his performance, but he managed to complete the set without the audience realizing his pain.

As a consequence, several upcoming Aerosmith performances will be postponed to ensure that Steven Tyler can return to the stage in peak condition. Fans will need to exercise a bit more patience before their favorite rockstar is back in full voice and ready to deliver the performances they deserve.
