Steven Tyler, lead singer for mega-rock group Aerosmith has checked into a rehab facility in California, at Las Encinas Hospital according to TMZ. The article claims he is getting treated for a substance abuse problem at the same facility where “Celebrity Rehab” is filmed with rehab specialist Dr. Drew Pinsky.

Well, I guess this means the group’s whole pledge to sobriety thing failed. Back in the 80’s after managing to derail their career because of excessive addictions to alcohol and heroin, the group talked Steven into entering rehab in a bid to get their music careers back on track. Steven emerged rehab successfully and has managed to stay sober (as far as we know) for over 20 years. With Steven as an example, the entire band entered rehab, each successfully kicking their habits and pledging to live a drug-free life, going so far as to have their road-crew avoid drugs and alcohol.

Some demons come back to haunt you, and for Steven this must come a real set back to those who know and love him, like his four children, including famous actress daughter Liv from his relationship with rock n’ roll babe Bebe Buell (while she was with singer/songwriter Todd Rundgren) and his bandmates.

No word yet on what substance is in question, but Tyler was known for being heavily addicted to heroin. God Speed man, get your ass clean!
