Steven Tyler, lead singer of Aerosmith, was loving it up until he hit the ground last night in South Dakota.

The rocker suffered head, neck and shoulder injuries after tumbling from the stage during a show in Rapid City.

The 61-year old fell as he attempted to entertain the crowd during Aerosmith's performance of Love in an Elevator.

Tyler was taken by helicopter to a Rapid City hospital, according to a spokesman. It's not clear how serious Tyler's injuries are.

Several people in the crowd thought Tyler's fall was part of Aerosmith's act. Jessica Kokesh, a journalism student who covered the concert for a local newspaper, said: "We thought maybe he stage-dived into the crowd, but he didn't get back up. I thought he was falling back to crowd surf."

After Tyler fell, security rushed his side and the crowd cheered when he stood up. He was taken backstage, where a physician attended to him.

Later Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry went on stage to tell the audience Tyler was being taken to the hospital and that the show would not go on.
