This has included leaving the studio when he sees somebody walk by and generally embarrassing himself to add to his impressive collection.

Norton is in on the joke and has often told stories on what is now the Opie with Jim Norton show about his behavior.

Earlier this week, however, the host/comedian was apparently overcome with emotion when Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry entered the studio, Norton could not control himself and this happened.

Perry has been making the radio rounds promoting his book "Rocks: My Life In and Out Of Aerosmith."

"Rocks is an unusually searching memoir of a life that spans from the top of the world to the bottom of the barrel--several times. It is a study of endurance and brotherhood, with Perry providing remarkable candor about Tyler, as well as new insights into their powerful but troubled relationship," aacording to Amazon.com. "It is an insider's portrait of the rock and roll family, featuring everyone from Jimmy Page to Alice Cooper, Bette Midler to Chuck Berry, John Belushi to Al Hirschfeld.

It takes us behind the scenes at unbelievable moments such as Joe and Steven's appearance in the movie of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (they act out the murders of Peter Frampton and the Bee Gees).
