Aerosmith frontman's surgery to be televised
Steven Tyler will appear on US television this weekend
Footage of the legendary rocker's surgery will be shown, as well as a backstage test that evaluated the stress that singing put on his vocal chords.
During a sold-out show at the Tweeter Center in Aerosmith's hometown of Boston, Tyler was fitted with a vest to monitor his vital readings, including heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen levels, lung capacity and body temperature to show the impact a performance had on his body.
The National Geographic programme will show this test as well as high-definition photos of Tyler's larynx during the operation, and before-and-after photos illustrating how his vocal chords were repaired.
