![]() The others agreed, and a new band was born, although it was still missing a name. Steven Tyler, who had been a drummer and backup singer in Chain Reaction, adamantly refused to play drums in this new band, insisting he would only take part if he could be the frontman and lead vocalist. In October 1970, the bands met up again and considered the proposition. Tyler immediately loved Jam Band's sound, and wanted to combine the two bands. In 1970, Chain Reaction and Jam Band played at the same gig. Kramer, a Berklee College of Music student, decided to quit school to join Jam Band. Kramer had known Steven Tyler and had always hoped to play in a band with him. There they met Joey Kramer, a drummer from Yonkers, New York. Hamilton and Perry moved to Boston, Massachusetts in September. Meanwhile, Perry and Hamilton formed the Jam Band (commonly known as "Joe Perry's Jam Band"), which was based on free-form and blues. In 1964, Steven Tyler formed his own band called The Strangeurs-later Chain Reaction- in New Hampshire. ![]()
