Guitar Hero: Aerosmith Edition?

You, too, can step into Brad Whitford's shoes

Idolator noticed something in a recent Billboard item - also touched upon in our guy Ashare's interview with Joe Perry - apparently the fourth Guitar Hero, and we are obliged to point out that the third one isn't even completed yet, is going to feature nothing but Aerosmith:

Besides the album, Aerosmith is also working closely with the makers of "Guitar Hero IV," which will be dedicated to the Boston group's music. "I don't know much about the technical part of it," Perry says, "but artistically we're working hand in hand."

On the surface, it doesn't really make sense, but absent confirmation or denial from Red Octane and Neversoft, we have to take it at face value. We're hoping someone is mistaken, though, because, regardless of your feelings on Aerosmith, the idea of a game devoted to one band exclusively strikes us as monumentally bad.
