    Look me straight in the eye and say that it's over now?

    True Fact: Jerry Cantrell had food poisoning for this show, that black waste basket is next too him because he was vomiting from the food poisoning, not sure if he actually vomited during the performance, from the Unplugged footage he seems in good spirits same with the rest of the band , but it's a funny story and crazy too think he played such an incredible show while extremely ill. And we all know how Layne was doing during this time so the fact the band was not doing so good but still managed too put on such a fucking legendary show is a true testament too how good they really were.

      And although he (Jerry) was so ill, he kept checking on Layne through the whole show.. asking if he's ok. Such an epic performance even though they really were falling apart. I'll always respect and idolise these guys.
      I'm a heroin addict and there's NO WAY I could do as a phenomenal job as Layne through my struggling. The demons and slow suicide take everything you once were away but Layne fought long and hard as long as he could.

    • @AddySophie
      @AddySophie 4 роки тому +53

      My buddy was at the taping in NYC. He never said anything about Jerry vomiting so I presume that didn't happen. However, he told me that Layne was in really bad shape and to prepare myself for the inevitable. Layne was so frail at that point that he had to be helped to and from the stage by stagehands. The taping also took over 4 hours because Layne kept either repeating the same lyrics, or completely forgetting them- and the rift it was causing with the band during the set was obvious to though who were seeing it live. So incredibly sad.

      But, it wasn't the end of their career. It was sad watching Layne slowly kill himself, for sure, but AIC eventually moved on, releasing many new hits. People were just getting used to the fact that Mike Starr was gone and replaced with Inez (who was good, in his own right). They weren't ready for another band problem, especially one of that capacity. But...nearly a decade later...the band popped out a new album.

      If you've ever been in a band you kno that you forge a brotherly bond with the other members. If you've ever been in a band torn apart by addiction, you kno it rips your heart wide open to watch one of those brothers be destroyed. Fame or no fame it hurts so bad. One of my bandmates overdosed last April. I knew him since we were 14 or 15 years old. I'm 34 now. Addiction stole a lot from us both. I'm now looking at 2 years clean from heroin. Thank God it almost killed me too... it is not a game. It's not to be glorified. It's misery in all its worst forms. It only destroys you and you feel like there is no way out. There is hope tho if you can find it.

I've watched this MTV Unplugged episode featuring Alice in Chains 1000+ times over the years & never tire of it. WTH happened to MTV? Creating "Unplugged" featuring awesome bands like Nirvana & Alice in Chains, who'd come on & play stripped down versions of their songs, surrounded by candles, in front of an intimate audience was the best idea ever. I always wanted to be in that audience. Now MTV airs braindead episodes of Ridiculousness & Teen Mom. Damn that sucks.

    Speaking from personal experience, you can love someone with all of your being but that love will never be enough if they have no will to change. This whole set gets to me because I see the father of my children in Layne. They look pretty similar. That hallow look of pain. I think drug addiction is sometimes just a prolonged suicide. They want to die but don't want to pull the trigger. They cover the pain with drugs until the drugs physically take them. And for those of us that have loved an addict, sometimes the only thing you can do it to leave them to do what they have their heart set on doing. It's sad but you can't fix someone if they don't want to change. My ex lost his battle last year and left 3 small kids behind. Drugs are just horrible. I can't fault people for needing a way out though.

    All those candles... and Layne slowly fading. Like he is in another dimension. Still puts down an amazing performance with the rest of the band

    Jerry Cantrell is such an underrated singer. He's also a very talented guitarist & songwriter. This song is very heartfelt & he knew his friend Layne's drug addiction was at an all-time low & it probably wouldn't be a very long time till he lost his friend

    I have the utmost respect for Cantrell, he had to carry this and many tracks with Layne in such rough shape(Sludge Factory)on this set all while apparently having food poisoning, he is an absolute legend for what he had done in performing this and other songs with his playing and solid vocal, just a great show

      Layne did an absolutely amazing job even if he fumbled with sludge factory, he absolutely gave an amazing performance nonetheless. His vocals on sludge factory were still better than 99.9% of singers out there and The Rooster MTV unplugged is one of my favourite live performances
