NEW YORK (FOX 5 NY) - Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry is "doing well" after he was forced to leave the stage while performing in Coney Island, Brooklyn.

Perry became ill around 9:30 p.m. Sunday while performing with Johnny Depp and Alice Cooper in his side band, the Hollywood Vampires, at Ford Amphitheater.

 "Joe Perry is doing well and resting and appreciates all your good wishes," said the group's representative, Sujata Murthy.
