This time the drummer got burned for real.

It was 17 years ago today that Joey Kramer was gassing up his Ferrari convertible just south of his home in Boston, Massachusetts, when a leaky gas hose triggered a fire that destroyed his car and burned the drummer’s leg, arms and hands. It was bad enough to have to cancel 14 concerts, for Aerosmith….

That was on this day, July 15th 1998. Today we look forward to seeing him, along with Aerosmith, one week from tonight, at Cheyenne Frontier Days. This video should get you psyched up.
