The band could have worded the reason for stopping touring as "Steven Tyler's vocal cord injury and other issues". Just read about that sexual abuse case, Tyler claimed to have immunity as the victim's legal guardian (?). Even though it was dismissed by court, it still was an awful thing that surely has damaged Tyler's and Aerosmith's reputation.
I mean saying you have immunity because you are the guardian means that a parent could legally sexually abuse their child with no repercussions.
