Lisa Robinson Interviews Elissa Perry Interviews Lisa Robinson
I've often said that as far as rock and roll wives go, the ones you'd want to know, stay home.
I've often said that as far as rock and roll wives go, the ones you'd want to know, stay home. An exception is Elissa Perry, Joe Perry's wife. She has been a major part of my Aerosmith road experiences, and my admiration for her is no secret in rode circles.
We recently sat down in her Boston home and attempted to interview each other. What was printable follows.
Elissa: You know, Lisa, there are a lot of bad stories going around about you. Lisa: Yeah...tell me what.
Elissa: You know, like you're real bitchy and you hate girls,
Lisa: I know...why does that get around?
Elissa: I don't know. The same thing gets around about me, don't feel bad. Lisa: I don't feel bad. I'd just like to know why...
Elissa: You know, that you're real bitchy and it's good to get on the good side of you, but impossible to get on the good side of you.
Lisa: Did you hear this before we knew each other or since?
Elissa: Before and since. But you know, I was supposed to be a real asshole too, but you were a bigger asshole than me. Definitely.
