Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler in hospital after tumbling from a stage while dancing

Aging rocker Steven Tyler of Aerosmith was airlifted to hospital early today after falling from the stage during a South Dakota concert. The 61-year-old was trying to entertain the crowd with his dancing after the venue’s sound system failed during his band’s hit Love in an Elevator, when he tumbled off the lip of the stage. Early reports suggest he suffered minor head, neck and shoulder injuries. No word on whether he broke a hip.
