accountant of Portuguese descent from madira and his mother was a high school gym teacher of Italian descent at a very young age Perry found himself drawn to the ocean his dream was to One Day become a marine biologist and follow in the footsteps of his hero jacqu custo his grades at Hopedale Junior Senior High School were not good and his chances of eventually going to college were fading at one point his parents even tried enticing him with a promise that if he worked to get his grades up he might be able to intern for a summer at the Woods Hole oceanographic institution on Cape Cod however Joe's academic struggles continued and in his junior year his parents made the decision to withdraw him from Hopedale and enroll him at an all Boys Preparatory School for mon Academy the boarding school which housed around 200 young men was located in Saxton's River a small town in southern Vermont the teenaged Joe Perry was not very happy with this plan it was his parents hope that with their

years later in his Memoir Rocks My Life in and out of Aerosmith Perry wrote about his self-professed learning difficulties during his school years and how it was actually the result of his having ADHD a condition that had remained undiagnosed until recently he spoke about it while discussing the book in a 2014 interview with JC mesek for pop matters it was looked at as a discipline problem when I was in school and certainly over the years after I left school I had forged my way into this thing called rock and roll and it was less of an issue however Perry now considers the possibility that the learning disability was something of a double-edged sword for his career I'm starting to realize that in some ways it's helped my guitar playing and it's hurt my guitar playing in the way that I kind

newspaper to extensively cover American culture however it was his exposure to this new music that would be the heaviest influence on him it was so different from anything he had ever heard before

Beatles the night The Beatles first played The Ed Sullivan Show boy that was something seeing them on TV was akin to a national holiday talk about an event I never saw guys looking so cool I had already heard some of their songs on the radio but I wasn't prepared by how powerful and totally mesmerizing they were to watch it changed me completely I knew something was different in the world that night after hearing the music his classmates were listening to he found himself becoming even more obsessed with his playing he would sit in his room for hours lift the needle off a record that was playing he then would try to drop it back down in the same spot so it would be perfectly in sync with the Riff he was playing on his own guitar career formation and initial success of Aerosmith
