Tom Hamilton, the bass player for Aerosmith, turns 63 today!
He's my favorite member of the band.
His bass playing is essential to the Aerosmith sound.
Tom is the funny one of the group. Steven is pretty funny, but I fee l like he has nothing on Tom.
Tom is the tallest in the band at 6' 1".
He co-wrote "Sweet Emotion" and "Janie's Got a Gun", two of Aerosmith's biggest hits.
Tom is the second youngest member of the band, only two months older than Brad.
He sings lead vocals on "Up On a Mountain" which is on the band's 2012 album Music From Another Dimension!
And I believe he is the only member of the band besides Steven Tyler and Joe Perry to have a solo writing credit (for the song "Tell Me" wink .
That's all I got at the moment.
Rest assured, I have been celebrating his birthday since midnight and I shall continue celebrating until we ring in 2015 in 4 hours.
And if you have not seen "Tom's Big Box" on YouTube, it's a must-watch. Here ya go: Tom's Big Box
