Timothy B. Schmit: "I'm Not Steven Tyler!"

Searching WireImage today, I came across a video and photos of Timothy attending a red carpet movie premiere a few days ago, I can't post the video here, because our limited account doesn't allow us, but there was a pretty funny moment. Apparently, people all over Los Angeles have been mistaking Timothy for American Idol Judge, Steven Tyler.  In the clip, a reporter actually calls Tim "Mr. Tyler" and then Timothy lets him have it (in a very nice way, of course).  I've transcribed what Timothy had to say.

"Look, what is it with this Steven Tyler stuff?  Ever since he started showing up on TV people have been thinking I'm him. What is it? The hair? Is that what it is? I don't get it. We look nothing alike.  Can we set the record straight once and for all? I don't even know what it means to "...save a Casey Abrams" and I can't tell you what Jennifer Lopez smells like.  Thanks!"

You go, Timothy!!!
