Then, of course Alice In Chains... WOW. They came out with 5 acoustic guitars and Sean Kinney on drums. It was Jerry Cantrel, Mike Inez, Chris Degarmo (Queensryche), Sean Olsen, and another guy with long hair that plays with Jerry on his solo stuff... oh yeah and Pat Lacheman of Damage Plan singing Layne's vocals. First song was "Killing Yourself", a great one to get the crowd going... everyone was really just in awe. Then Ann Wilson of Heart came on stage and sang a great rendition of "Brother" with the guys. Then they played 4 more acoustic... forgive me but I am still in shock and can't remember the exact songs... it was just like MTV Unplugged, sound was excellent, the band was on... Just fucking great!!!
To cap the night Alice in Chains are back, they are plugged in and ready to ROCK. They play a song w/Pat Lachman, then bring on Wes Scanlin of Puddle of Mud for a duet w/Lachman on "Down in a Hole". Then its' Scanlin on Angry Chair and Would (I think... by the way, this Wes Scanlin guy was a total clown, he was drunk off his ass and fucked up the lyrics to Would). Then the shock of the night, Scanlin leaves and the new guest singer... MAYNARD from TOOL/Perfect Circle. He sings the last 2 songs with the guys, does an absolutely amazing job (I think it was Man in the Box and Them Bones). Finally the night ends with the guys from Alice in Chains, Chris Degarmo of Queensryche, Scanlin, Lacheman, Maynard and Ann Wilson in a huge jam to ROOSTER!!! Even Crist Novaselic of Nirvana fame was helping Sean Kinney on the drums on this one...

I'm still waiting for some tribute CD from some of these type artists to honor AIC. That is a cd I could get into.

This sounds radical, almost too good to be true though. Is there any real confirmation on this other than one persons acount of the show? I didn't read the whole thread, so maybe someone else was there too, it would be awesome to hear this.

nobody is saying that it is, but most i for one love AIC and think this little gig was pretty f'n cool.
can't wait to hear some tracks from it, and quite obviously i'm most interested in the MJK stuff but all of it looks great.
