Video interview with hardrock band Alice In Chains. FaceCulture spoke to Jerry Cantrell and Sean Kinney about Nona, how it begun, persuading Layne Staley, Mike Starr, being homeless, horrible lyrics, finding the sound, experience, Layne's legacy, a tough decision, reactions on Layne's death, new stuff and hard life.
He was not just gifted but also a good hearted man who loved his friends. He gave home to Jerry when he was in need and then became their lead singer because he couldn't stand watching them "trying" with all these clowns.. He loved once, one girl and he gave all his heart there. Not everyone is doing all these. I don't choose to see him only as an addict or just as a huge talent but also as a good guy with a big heart. RIP Layne
‘ I wish I could just hug you all, But I’m not gonna’
❤️
Well said, he was such a good person 💗
Well said.
Seemed like a really intelligent good hearted guy. Also just happened to be a Generational talent. Drugs like Heroine don't discriminate and only have one End. I pray he found Jesus and is happy in Heaven with Demri.
I'm not surprized that the music establishment didn't acknowledge Layne's passing, my ass is still chapped that Rollingstone didn't include him in the 100 greatest singers--which was a fucking travesty.
Rolling stone magazine are a bunch of cunts who listen to 13 different bands and follow their lives and families primarily the rolling stones FUCK ME HOW GENIUS!.
The good news is that nobody really gives a shit about RS, the Grammy's, MTV, etc. Music has become far less centralized recently and everyone just listens to their own thing. The last fad in rock music was over five years ago (emo), and now even rap music is becoming more diverse in the mainstream. EDM and watered down country seem to the industry's last gasps, and once those fall I wouldn't be surprised if they took the big labels with them.
The only thing with less credibility than rolling stone is the grammys.
It really is hard not to fucking despise rolling stone and their pandering to all things commercial while still trying to put on this bullshit rock facade. It's embarassing
I've never bought a rolling stones magazine, I wonder why? lol
Never heard the grammy snub story, thats pretty retarded.
poor Layne...man that guy could knock a brick wall down with that voice...tragic,
It's so sad. I wish Layne was still around ;(
I agree RIP Layne
MoneyArmyGaming Me too
That voice with the most piercing eyes I can remember. RIP Layne and Mike!
RIP Layne ;-|
Layne was amazing, but i can´t visualize alice in chains without Jerry he is the man!!!!
regina falangi I'd like to add to that by saying even without alice in chains, we would know who those guys are, they would have made their mark somewhere
***** Not sure if I agree with that. Jerry was the driving force and main songwriter, but yes Layne was a one of a kind and irreplaceable. I agree that nobody could have done it as good as Layne, but you're kind of putting Jerry in the backseat with that comment.
***** seriously, who knows anything about lars ulrichs business skills lmfao
regina falangi Don't forget about Sean, he is a very important ingredient in the AIC recipe. Without Sean things would be different for sure.
How do you know?
Layne died from depression just as much as from heroin. If not for the depression so many drug users suffer from, the heavy drug use might not be in the picture. Many depressed people turn to drugs to numb the pain (temporary escape). If you take away the drugs, the depression is often still there; in many people it's there before they ever started doing drugs. So I say it's actually *depression* that kills many who die of drug overdose.
Donna damn right
"I stay away"
right on
Anxiety too
Kratom connoisseur you should school yourself ... just because your mom dies eating pork chops are Uganda stop eating them ? it's simple it's addiction!!!
God I miss Layne. It's a fucking tragedy man. I know he doesn't get the recognition he deserves, but I don't think he would care. His fans love him and we know how fucking amazing he was. That's what mattered to him I think.
Love42Huskys I agree. 😀
I can't believe they didn't mention him in the people that had passed at the Grammy awards. What an insult. Just goes to show the stigma of addiction and depression. People don't get it. Poor guy, if only he had gotten some help somehow he might still be alive. We miss you Layne. And also Mike. Such a terrible thing to happen to what was a fantastic band. Not that the 2 alive aren't great still.
Love42Huskys missing layne Staley 💔🎸🎸🎸⋯⋯
Ur foul language
Layne Thomas Staley is a certified GENIUS and LEGEND not only in the eyes of his fans and contemporaries, but also in those of the world's top musicologists, vocal coaches and rock veterans. Moreover, in the now obscure rock and metal scene, Layne and Alice in Chains have had the biggest impact of all their alt rock/metal peers - one that is even bigger than the likes of Nirvana and Pearl Jam. So, that means way more than what these modern day child prodigies are gaining on staged award shows and the rigged billboard charts. Long Live LAYNE. Long Live Rock 'N' Roll.
ALICE IN CHAINS WILL NEVER EVER BE THE SAME WITHOUT LAYNE STALEY!!! 😥😥😥😥😥❤️❤️❤️❤️
Or Mike Starr
same
A melhor banda de Seattle
Peter Potamus Black Gives Way to Blue is good as fuck
I disagree. AIC still sounds good, the sound has changed but their soul has not. Black Gives Way To Blue and The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here are awesome albums and William DuVall is a great singer and guitarist. I look forward to seeing what they can do in the future.
"When you find your sound it's basically when all four of you are digging whatever the f**k you're playing." Words of wisdom
The fact that they purposely brought in shitty singers just to attract Staley is awesome. Keen move
I love that too!! X X
The red headed male stripper idea is hilarious omg. Made me laugh out loud 😂😂😂
@@rocknroll6857 same lol
i remember reading about this in an interview in one of those awful magazines in the 90's; i think hit parader :)
It was BRILLIANT
Jerry laughing without moving his face is pure sorcery
GOOD FOR THEM FOR LEAVING! Shame on the Grammys! What a farse! Layne was a legend and will always be. His longing to be famous to have his biological father come back to him is the most touching story. I have had so many friends die from drug addiction and one recently from heroin. These are good souls plagued by demons. He was no different. Such a dear dear soul. I wish I could have hugged him, saved him!
God that's horrible, sorry man.
The Grammys suck
Iirc he tried to find his dad at 18 or so and didn’t like what he discovered, then when Layne was on a magazine his dad found him, they ended up using together etc. Phil got born again still in Washington, a trip because he’s obviously older but you can almost see what Layne would’ve looked like later in life.
@@PnwOnTour Layne's dad was the worst...
Same, Layne deserved a better life and more people that cared about him 😢
The episode of MTV Unplugged with Alice in Chains was one of the finest tv moments I have ever witnessed!!!
Damon - For sure, and Staley was a complete mess by that point.
I like AIC but did not like that at all.
God only knows how many times I listened to that CD
@@chrisramsey3603 how can you not lmao ok anyway
I break down every time I watch it. The sadness in Staley’s eyes show it all. Epic performance! The rooster track especially
That voice will never be replicated, especially that beautifully haunting harmonization with Jerry on vocals. There are singers out there who kind of sound like Cobain, and there are some who kind of sound like Vedder, but Staley was one of a kind, just like Cornell... RIP
FUCK, they have ABSOLUTELY NO BAD SONGS, THEY ARE ALL SO FUCKING AWESOME.
I feel like its the same with all short lived bands
SchlegelREV short lived? there making a new album soon ;)
He is a good replacement though,Black gives way to blue was a brilliant return Check my brain will be regarded as a classic aic tune,the latest album was really good as well
"Love Song" is pretty horrible XD but other than that I agree.
Niko he talk about the early stuff before the first album
Jerry is like the chill dad that is an assistant coach for little league that everyone liked more than the head coach
I cant watch this without laughing and Crying! I was 19-or 20?? I saw them LIVE 3x.. Portland 1991, Seattle 93, L.A. Cal-93.. I will allways hold that memory!
Lucky man!
One of, if not the best 90's heavy rock bands.
Y'all wanna argue....all I have to say is that Jerry and Layne were MAGIC together. There will never be anything like them, ever again. RIP, my beloved Layne, and Jerry, I love you, always and forever. You are the singer of my soul, you say all the things I have inside me.
The only singer to use the word "YEA" and make it kick fucking ass
Chris Mantlo
he is a layne wana b- even the name"godsmack" if from AIC.
Chris Mantlo sully could not come close to layne mark lanegan from screaming trees and queens of the stone age and him and layne sang together in mad season godsmack doesnt have close to even 1 song that can step to AIC
Lisa Pulatov Relax, he didn't even compare Sully to Layne. Godsmack has some good tracks and Sully is a huge fan of Layne, so much so that he named the band Godsmack as a tribute, so don't get your panties in a bunch for no reason.
James Hetfield.
na he just made it kick.
Sean's story about Melinda's phone number brings to mind that old rock and roll joke: What do you call a drummer who breaks up with his girlfriend? ... homeless.
That's Rob Zombie's joke..Ivan DePrume
Lucius Malfoy and Severus Snape
might be the best observation on youtube...HILARIOUS!
He's a fucking cartoon lol
Lmfaoooo
His wand is a guitar
Read another book
Layne Staley was a Beethoven among rock and roll vocalists.
This is true. He is the 21st century Beethoven
Was he deaf?
Very few bands blow my mind. The first time I heard Man In The Box, it blew my mind then, and every time since then. Heaviest band I've ever heard. Best heavy rock vocalist since forever. Coolest guys on earth. Fuck the Grammys.
layne has one of the most incredible voices in rock history, just simply amazing! and anybody who has dealt with a really strong addiction to drugs, especially heroin can really relate to his lyrics, sometimes its scary how much his lyrics relate to you because his lyrics were 100% honest and real, just an amazing musician but all the guys in aic were great especially jerry cantrell, his guitar sound and songwriting were so integral to everything aic did!
Concordo pienamente con te su tutto. La depressione di cui soffriva Layne è spaventosa perché ce l'ho anch'io, solo che seguo una terapia controllata. Lui è incappato nell'eroina, ed essendo sensibile e fragile non ce l'ha fatta. Ciao Layne vivi sempre nei nostri cuori ❤️🌹🌟
Layne was too real for all these self proclaimed music critics. They prefer something that's more marketable and less brutally honest.
Two of the realest dudes in rock
Layne will never truly die. He lives on in our hearts!
F the Grammy's, they wouldn't know real music if it slapped them in the face!!! 🙄 How pathetic of them to ask them to go & not even put up Layne's picture. He was a major musical influence of my generation and I totally Loved that guy!!! His voice, his soul, beautiful guy. You just felt everything about him in his music. He is a beautiful soul! For ever!!! God be with you Layne, always!🌹❤️💖🌟✨✨
Exactly! Grammy's are an awards show Layne would not care about. AiC defined a major part of my music influence. They were REAL...they sang about uncomfortable subjects that the 'industry' wanted to avoid....yet the same industry is well aware of how their very own stars fall.
The music 'industry' has NEVER been healthy for an artist. Took me years to listen to a AiC song and not feel the loss of Layne. Part of me will always feel some degree of loss.
Now I can understand the gift he left us in his sheer honesty. I miss the music of the 90's, before auto-tune and stars 'flexin' on their own fans.
bless your soul Layne Staley
I will never EVER watch The Grammy's ever again!! After I watched this and discovered that they didn't put Layne's photo in the collage that was decidated to the celebrities that were lost in 2002, I was disgusted! The Grammys are ridiculous, worthless and pathetic now in my eyes! How are they not going to pay their respects to one of the greatest, most unique, hauntingly beautiful voices in all of rock history!?
Actually, Laynes family asked the grammys not to include his photo out of respect that he had just passed away. It's called grieving.
if there was any band that was SUPPOSED to happen it's ALICE IN CHAINS
Layne resisted joining but peer pressure got him.
i like how they auditioned singers he couldn't stand
Them and temple of a dog
jerrys laugh is funny
just to have a beer with these guys and hear the stories they could tell... that would be pretty cool. my favorite band of all time. Broke up with my ex cause she didnt like AIC. My new gf does!! everything happens for a reason. rest in peace Layne!
Charles Hukalowicz 😂😂 wow that's reason enough
Damn... Well, my bf doesn't like AIC, but then nobody in my life like AIC, except for my parents (who got me into liking AIC) and my 4yo niece, so fuck me, I guess.
I can only date someone who listens to alice in chains. Too bad where i live everyone listens to rap. Oh well. I'll stay single
Proper reason to end it. Hell yeah man
You did good, I only trust people with good music taste 👌
Great interview with two awesome musicians. The Grammy's have become a freakin' joke, was back then too. Not to pay respect to one of the greatest and original voices/songwriters of all time is pure shit. R.I.P. Layne and Mike.....you will always be remembered.
Julie Wortham yes Layne and Mike were so talented, and missed. RIP Peace Layne and Mike
wow.alice in chains are so underrated
Not really. They got all the credit they deserved and earned.
There are worthless bands who got more fame than they deserved.aic deserved more.
dolan dak Youre right. Like Nirvana imo. Not a bad band but the fans make them out to be something they are not.
yeah you're right.they are not bad but if we compare their most popular songs "smells like teen spirit" with "here comes the rooster" to me the rooster is way higher in quality. the music, the vocals, the lyrics, everything is superior to nirvana's teen spirit.
dolan dak alice in chains and nirvana are two very different types of bands. i wouldent say that nirvana is overrated but smells like teen spirit sure is. There is a difference between nirvana fans and smells like teen spirit fans. And you are right alice in chains is a very underrated band.
The power in Laynes voice came from the pain of his struggle .....thats what I always got....
Love Sean Kinney. Such a tasteful drummer. Just listening to his playing on the acoustic stuff taught me SO much about being a MUSICAL drummer! HUGE influence!
The Grammy's reminding us once again why they're completely irrelevant.
Silly Skeleton lmao yes
Dude fuck the Grammy's!!! the song Grind was nominated in 1996 and they lost to a Pearl Jam song from Vitaology.
Ain’t nobody here watching the Grammys lol ill pass on that
Fuck the Grammys. Mainstream awards don’t define raw talent
These guys don't define it either
It's depressing af when you think about how much more music we could have gotten from them, knowing the door was never closed. It's like Lennon getting shot
Lennon hadn’t made relevant music for 15 years when he died. Layne wouldn’t of made more music either at the same level most likely.
@@smkxodnwbwkdns8369 Says who, you? Your point being .. what? Its no big artistic loss that Lennon was killed? Because according to you, he hadn't made anything 'relevant' since BEFORE REVOLVER, and wouldn't make anything worthwhile again for as long as he lived.. yea, says the nobody. On what basis you have for believing Layne would never contribute anything great again either is beyond me... his track record was damn near flawless, and would it need to be AS great as everything he had already done for his death to consitute as an artistic loss? I'm obviously painting a hypothetical where isn't completely faced on smack..
@@smkxodnwbwkdns8369 What are u even talking about? Lennon recorded his most famous solo album (Double Fantasy) just 3 months before his death. On Layne's case, since he was still so young, im sure he would've made more music with the band and he would've probably released a book.
The fact that Layne's voice didn't wither and fade into the shadows after many decades shows how genuine and honest of a person he was since we can still feel and relate to his lyrics. Layne was never meant for the mainstream audience to appreciate this one in a lifetime rare work of art . . . only those who have been there and done that can fully comprehend it. One must hit rock bottom in order to appreciate music from the Grunge era. I'm grateful for having the opportunity of coming across Layne's voice and finding a sense of comfort and warmth from it.
Jerry would make a pretty good ventriloquist
I have the lyrics "I'd like to fly..." from "Down in a Hole" tattoed with my Fender Strat on my back/shoulder. Thank you, Layne, for speaking to our generation through your lyrics and amazing voice. Rest in peace.
Ali Hendrix That song was written by Jerry. Most songs were. I'd have had a pink cloud turning gray personally.
Yeah Layne didn't write it. Was about Jerry breaking up with his gf.
I moved to Seattle in 1992 I feel like I just missed being a groupie for this Epic band 😢
@sindjinn6662 kurt cobain is no longer seen as a person, hes a product. I am glad Layne is being remembered in respectful, non-profit way, rather then his memory being sold for profit by record companies and shirt makers
Incredible interview. Glad to know how it all started but I guess they lost an amount of their sense of humor with Layne's death. They all seemed happy on that trip to waterpark - it is on UA-cam, check it out. God bless Staley!
R.I.P. Layne & Starr
Sure sounds like "Down In A Hole" was written about Jerry losing his Mother, and Layne added the helpless feeling of heroin addiction. I honestly attribute that song to losing my own mother, and becoming a heroin addict myself. I've been clean for almost 8 years... and I've listened to that song every day for all of it. You can tell Jerry is lost. I feel you Jerry... I've lost most of em. Much love from NH.
Laynes hair in the beginning is beautiful
It's weird how this shit turns out they happen to met each other and become the biggest band ever lmao I wish they kept mike Starr on.
Some call it Fate... and yes the ARE the biggest band ever lol
I mean he died
In 2008^ his point still stands lol he should have stayed
William Shakespeare I feel like they let him go was because he was going downhill and they needed someone more reliable.. which was saying alot considering Layne was battling some of the same demons... I love Starr don't get me wrong but Inez definitely does him justice.
@@Eloo1004 they let him go because he was scalping AIC tickets. Layne's habit was much worse than Starr's at the time. Mike did heroin, but he was more into benzos.
i fucking love Jerry Cantrell. do with this info as you will
I love him too! He deserves so much respect while he’s still on this earth.
Omgosh..Jerry..i know Tim ...what a small world...
@Jerry Cantrell Hi... It's going good. I am so awed by AIC. I wish I could see you in concert .. kick myself for not doing it sooner so I could have seen Layne.
Years later his voice and your music still sends chills up my spine just like the first time :-) Bravo gentleman Bravo
I understand addiction is a disease, and the junk parasites really got their claws into Staley, but as someone who wish they had 10x more vocal talent, to see someone with that much talent throw it away is just beyond empathy. I actually think Layne was THE pre-eminent vocalist of his generation, no question. Cobain was a better writer, and Cornell was nearly as acrobatic and gifted, but Layne just gets you in your spine and your guts. His screaming was just so epic.
foto21com addiction doesn't care who you are.
No way. I mean drugs are bad but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t sick. The guy drowned. He was drowning the whole time and if you listen to his voice you can hear it. But you can’t do anything for people when they’re that far gone. It’s just what is, and it’s unfortunate. Still feel bad for the guy though.
layne and cobain where very much similar in the fact that both wanted to make it and have plenty of money so they could become full time heroin users
mike edwards I think that was what ironically did Layne in. Most people hit bottom at some point in the form of running out of money and options, and get motivated to quit. Layne always had the safety net of money which can be a horrible thing too.
You have to ask yourself, is Alice in chains the same band without heroin? Is Layne the same guy without it? Is the music as passionate, yet somehow hollow and empty? The answer to all of those is, probably not.
enjoyed this. thanks! for posting.
we've uploaded the whole interview on youtube. check out our channel!
Holy shit. 8:26 brought on the most powerful flood of emotion I've every experienced for someone I've never met. The editing for that was genius. RIP Layne.
This man had one of the most AMAZING voices of the 20th century. There is a wave of passion and the versatility is magical. People should respect him for the words and influence he brought upon his fans and the world and not dis and dismiss him because he fell and became powerless over a drug. Long live grunge.
RIP to a voice of a generation. Tragic; always remembered, never forgotten.
I loved Layne. I love Layne. Fuck. Fuck Heroin. Fuck.
This interview is so raw and real- their heart really shows- I know they miss him!
Saw Lane a few weeks or so before his death. He was unrecognizeable. Looked like a homeless junkie. I honestly couldn't believe it was him. One of my favorites of all time. Sad to see him fall the way he did. Never be another voice like that one.
Really looking forward to seeing them in Utah 2015. Been a long time.
powderkings Saw them in 2010 in KC, even without Layne it was nice. I missed them in 96 in KC, worst feeling ever. Parents wouldn't let me go, I was 11. the next day was my birthday on july 4th. They never performed again together. still sucks.......
you know that much about him but can't even spell his name right?
I didn't know him nor give 2 shits about the spelling of his name Mr. Helper.
powderkings
Where'd you see him man
He lived in a condo behind my job at University VW.
This is by far the best youtube video ive ever watched
Alice in chains thank you for bringing so much joy into my life with your music
Layne and his vocals can never be replaced or replicated! I am so blessed to had seen ALC in the early 90's when Layne looked healthy...He was super FINE! Yes!! Indeed 😍😍
I remember seeing them in 1991 at a club in Killeen TX. Never heard of them but they rocked. Only a handful of people there so it was like a private show. I wasn't surprised when they made it big. Ty!
They got a shitload of respect for Layne. That's a good interview.
thats pathetic.... not putting laynes name up there, fucking travesty, he was hands down better than kurt cobain(cobain is great though)
I don't think I could put one over the other to be honest
i think layne and jerrys vocals together could really make you feel for his addiction troubles, kurt cobain ive never felt that type of feeling, but hes still incredible
killaalpaca I agree Layne and Jerrys voices together have a certain spell to it.
zbfx I can, Layne's better.
Sure, Thats your opinion, Layne's style reminds me a lot of axle roses style, except better in my opinion. Kurt has more range and is more experimental and always sounds great, so I can't decide who's better.
Thank you for the music AIC. Thank you so much and RIP Layne you legend.
Only true friends stay together like this after all this time and still rock the house, Jerry and Sean hope you guys stay at it another 20 years!
To this day he still doesnt get the recognition he deserved, only from us the fans who know this shit. fuck the grammys.
And that is why I don't watch the Grammy's or any of that stupid shit.
same
+Joe Amazon agreed!
agreed
yeah
Joe Amazon I don't understand why in the hell didn't they acknowledge Layne!! it's fucking bullshit!!
What an awesome interview w Jerry and Sean. They give the real story of how they met to the forming of AIC
just saw them at the orpheum in boston last night. they've been my all-time favorite band since i was 8 and jerry inspired me to play guitar. by far the greatest show i've ever seen in my entire life
Couldn't stand this band at first, now they are my all time favorite band. Fkd up how that works out.
Good men!
Thats odd. Same. I'm so bad with first impressions. I dont want go listen to anything else
Love these guys! so down to Earth!
It's been years since I've seen this, but damn do I enjoy their interviews.
Damn. Can’t believe they didn’t put him up on the video screen at the Grammys. Alice in chains has left the building. Just got home from a trip to Seattle. Visited Lane’s condo, and the bar he would walk to, the blue moon tavern. Was overcome with a very heavy feeling. Fly high Layne I love you
What a voice.
Layne was the Soul of AIC.Jerry is the body..AIC is like a Zombie without Layne.You can see the body..There..but can't feel The soul!!
aw....what a wonderfull interview. what great stories from back then....
God i wish i grew up with these guys. I only started listening to them recently, and i'm so fucking glad.
Jerry Cantrell's laugh reminds me of Steve Carell's "joyless laughing guy"
The sad thing is nothing was ever done for Layne when he passed away like there was done for people to remember him, it actually makes me feel sick.
The sad thing is nothing had been done for Layne BEFORE he past away.
I’m so sorry for his family and his band
Love the "behind the scenes" look I, like many discovered AIC in the unplugged session and was like...holy fuck, goosebump music. RIP LaYne.
In some ways i've always thought of Layne as a technical, better version of Kurt Cobain xD They kind of have that same voice and especially their Seattle pronunciation.
Same here Kurt is good for voice but layne is a whole new level more technical
except nirvana is crap and AIC is great
Did you seriously just make that comparison?
Nirvana is not crap wtf lol.. Yeah Alice In Chains is awesome Layne probably has one of the best voice to ever exist when it comes so sing.
To be perfectly honest nirvana died when Kurt Cobain did and that's why we have Dave in the foo fighters cause I don't belive nirvana could have went the distance... honestly Kurt's singing wasn't even in the same league as Layne's vocals period!! Truth.
So fucking cool. I love hearing about the stories of bands I've been listening to for forever straight from their mouths. I love it so much I'm making a platform that does just that. Welcome to the next music revolution ;}
I can't say how much I fucking love this interview
After Layne was found dead the CD in his CD player at the time was a demo of a Taproot song that he was either supposed to "guest" or sing main on. Maybe he put it in shortly before he died?... I like to think he listened to it at least a couple times and maybe even started writing lyrics for it. Who knows? Another band I heard he was supposed to front was Audioslave! Imagine that!
Damn Jerry actually let someone else talk in this interview. Finally haha
The BEST band of the 90's simply awesome \,,/
sean and jerry are amazing its easy to tell they didnt just like staley as a bandmate but as a friend as well
love aic saw them at lolla in the 90s along with many others rip layne...uve joined that infamous club...ugh...along with kurt shannon andrew and now chris cornell rip...youll never be forgotten...
Layne an mike your fans still miss you guys thank you for great music you left us Jerry too
Steve Lee truly missed Layne and Mike.
The world lost a great one in Layne Staley. I still can't believe it's been 10 years.
Imagine the stories that they will never share. So much time between brothers.
Jerry is so rad
they kind of look like a weird metalhead version of beavis & butthead here XP hahaah
No
Lol
R.I.P. Layne staley and Mike Starr
This interview alone gives me a reminder as to why I'm not a fan of the grammys , it's like the public doesn't look at Layne and Mike's contributions to the band and base their opinions of the band due to their drug use and that's just disgusting , it makes me sick , Mike and Layne were way more than that
I went to see alice in chains last year I was going mental In the crowd I saw jerry look at me and he smiled haha top band layne will always be remembered
