Aerosmith guitarist, Joe Perry, was set to play a blowout show in New York City on Sunday with his side project, The Hollywood Vampires — but was hospitalized after becoming ill on stage.

The 65-year-old, along with band mates Johnny Depp and Alice Cooper, took the stage in Coney Island, playing their opening number, "Raise The Dead," the lyrics to which ironically include the words: "cardiac, heart attack."

"Joe appeared ill when he came on stage and kind of hid in the back," a concertgoer told Breaking Celebrity News exclusively. "He looked exhausted."

"About two minutes in, he sat down on the drum stage and seemed to stop playing," the insider continued. "Moments later, he walked dizzily backstage and there was some commotion. Apparently, EMTs came to take him away on a stretcher."
