AEROSMITH guitarist JOE PERRY is in shock following his motorcycle crash, because he can't believe how "lucky" he was to escape the smash without injury.
The rocker was taken to hospital last week (15Jul10) after his bike was struck by a car at traffic lights in Taunton, Massachusetts.
Bandmate Tom Hamilton spoke out to reassure fans the star was fine, confirming that Perry was "sore" but "doing good".
And Perry is thankful he was left unhurt unlike his "smashed up" bike.
Perry tells RollingStone.com, "Next thing I know, I'm on Tarmac looking up at the sky. This woman behind me just didn't slow down at the light. She was going 25-30 miles per hour and just rear ended me. Everything on the bike from the engine back is smashed up, but I don't even have a black and blue mark. I can't believe it. I'm just really lucky."
The driver who allegedly struck Perry, 62 year old Linda O'Brien, has been cited for following a vehicle too closely.
