On February 2, 2025, Steven Tyler hosted his annual “Jam for Janie” Grammy viewing party at The Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles. The event, benefiting Janie’s Fund—a charity supporting girls who have suffered abuse and neglect—featured a star-studded lineup, including performances by Billy Idol and Joan Jett. Notably, Tyler reunited with his Aerosmith bandmates for a special performance, marking their first time on stage together since announcing their retirement from touring in August 2024 due to Tyler’s vocal injury.
The reunion was a poignant moment for fans, as Aerosmith had previously canceled their farewell tour after Tyler suffered a fractured larynx in 2023, leading to their decision to cease live performances.
Despite these challenges, the band’s appearance at the event demonstrated their enduring bond and commitment to supporting meaningful causes.
Attendees, including comedian Tiffany Haddish, celebrated the band’s legacy and contributions to music. The “Jam for Janie” event not only honored Aerosmith’s storied career but also highlighted their dedication to philanthropy, leaving a lasting impact on both fans and beneficiaries of Janie’s Fund.
