Honestly, it doesn't surprise me that Steven Tyler's American Idol gig is helping him increase record sales.  I mean, can you say whore out?  Hell, I'd do it too.  Show me the money! But how much is the show helping?

Here's what WetPaint.com had to say about Aerosmith's record sales:

Aerosmith’s “Don’t Want to Miss a Thing” is charting on iTunes at #22. And both versions of the band’s 1973 hit, “Dream On” are charting at #77 and #115.

Not too shabby.  I love Aerosmith and they put on a hell of a show, but Steven Tyler is still a dirty old man. :-)
