Love AIC. It's a shame Layne died. I was too young to truly appreciate their music. The Unplugged album is by far my favorite album. I still get goosebumps watching Nutshell and the crowd going crazy for Layne.

Best band of the 90s and one of the best ever imo.

Layne Staley was unreal.

Very cool. Youtube has a 28 minute video of the 1992 show. I heard AIC didn't perform live a whole lot and that it was really lucky if you did happen to see them.

They also played at the Daisy in the early 90's.

Really wish I had been born in the 70s sometimes.

AiC was one of the first bands I ever got into as a kid. Not really a fan of their new material (sounds like Cantrell's solo work), but the old lineup was fierce. Right Turn is one of my all time favorite songs.

Not a fan of their new stuff either, but their old stuff is my favorite music, that and soundgarden.

Too bad, they haven't found a good replacement for Layne. Plus I think Cantrell has lost some steam. His new music isn't as good as the stuff he wrote in the 90's. He wrote almost all of their hit music with Staley writing the lyrics.

And yeah they never toured. Staley was too high usually. shame.

Would have loved to see the original line up live one time. I have a friend of mine who saw the new line up right before the album with the new front man came out and said they put on a good show. Of course he never saw the original line up to compare it to anything, but said the show was good none the less.

I think DuVall does a decent job.
Layne was one of a kind. Impossible to replace him. Kind of unfair to compare the two though.

Love that song. You think it's come to an early end and then all if a sudden Layne just bursts out.
