0:00 - 9:09 best part

[@mikeedwards3364]

has to be one of the best live performances i have ever seen...man in the box was off the charts

[@juniordaddyman]

This concert put bands like poison and warrant on notice that their days are numbered!

[@juniordaddyman]

Dude I remember watching this concert live and thought what the crap have I just laid my eyes and ears upon. DAMN!!! Totally revolutionary!!

[@xviphoenix69]

@@juniordaddyman Lucky man... I wish I could have witnessed the death of hair metal and be introduced to grunge right when it happened

[@monicasena951]

Exactly all of them!!! Loved it

[@johnnyace2287]

It was on the charts.

[@IndoorHydroponix]

I like how Layne adds the ‘woof, woof’. RIP

[@suzannekirkhart]

💁🏼‍♀️Always my favorite part!🐶🐾

Man Staley could sing. Holy cow

Mike Starr could make that bass sing. Damn punchy as fuck!

[@filipe977]

they almost killed me lol

[@guyfromkcmo]

Same 100%

[@KJC71596]

The head banging from 0:07-0:16 is so epic lol not even the hardest rock song to head bang to, but they did it so fluently with the song. Makes you wanna head bang along!

[@nikotaguchi6]

Not the hardest on the album you mean! But when live, they went a bit faster and totally changed it. That’s how they wanted it done initially but the producer sucks ass.

[@mattdad8429]

Oh they were feelin' it. They were unstoppable in the early 90s. Heavy af

[@briankressenberg4811]

AIC is unmatched imo. When I think of the 90’s and “grunge”, they’re who I think of first. Never has been, never will be another band with this sound. Can’t be duplicated. Number one for me always and forever.

[@lizack3693]

Agreed 100%!

[@manlymen552]

Damn they were fire here

[@antoniococco9419]

Best band/singer ever

[@ricardolopes1482]

3:38 - Laney Staley . R.I.P ❤

[@tiffanystockman7601]

He was the BEST what a Amazing singer love him

[@TheStepmonkey]

5:09 His perfect vibrato👌

[@tommyfuller103z]

Man were they on top of their game !

[@guyfromkcmo]

Every, single, time, I watch this, and see Layne grabbing his hair reeling up for that main chorus on Man In The Box, I get goosebumps. I fucking love it so much.

[@TheStepmonkey]

Best sound quality of this performance 💗

[@cajunsoaper]

I saw them open up for Van Halen in Baton Rouge, back in 90-91? Sooooo good!

[@dathorndike4908]

Mike Starr was a bad ass bassist. Too bad he couldn't stay in the band. I really preferred him over Inez.

[@karaxx9751]

Wow thank you to whoever uploaded. They are all gods. I would kill to be theee

[@juniordaddyman]

I remember I saw this in 1991. I was headed to old 48 lanes to midnight bowl. I saw this was totally blown away!! Thanks again for uploading this great memory for all the world to see!

[@shobevillarin5558]

Goosebumps here

[@WhiteWizzard]

They set everything up for Nirvana to knock down with MITB spring of 1991. AIC was the best new band on earth at this time. From 91-94 they were the best. They sound better than the fucking album here. Stunning. Jerry is the best guitarist in Rock since the 90s and Layne was untouchable. Mike and Sean were Zeppelin like. Underrated. Lastly what separates them is songwriting. These guys are/were incredible songwriters. RIP Layne and Mike. Glad they are still going but nothing will ever be like this original line up at its peak. FUCK HEROIN and the pieces of shit that brought it into this amazing musical movement that was the last musical revolution. The dealers were all murderers. I still wonder how so many singers ended up dead. Almost seemed by design. This was powerful stuff. The music can never die.

[@britt-janneolsen689]

Love love love Alice In Chains 🖤🌹🤘🤘🤘Best over best ❤🎉

Depois do alice in chains tudo mudou! inclusive na minha vida

Man that early energy was so good! No shirts all 4 members, just shredding🤘💪

[@BiaKalian1224]

Jerry Cantrell💖

[@StarreLabell]

Layne has been gone too long.😪 Seeing this performance for the first time just now makes me ache. Ache for Layne, ache for 1991, ache for the days when music like this was hitting all the airwaves. But most of all, ache for being that young, that wild, that beautiful and thinking it would never end.

[@TammyM36]

Mike Starr ❤

[@christopherjames5471]

Why has this band got no DVD from pre 1995 when in my view they were at their best from Facelift to Self titled ?

[@The90sGamingGuy]

I totally agree the 1990 performance at Moore theater got a VHS release and recent vinyl release but deserves a DVD and Blu Ray release. I watch it here since the VHS copies are probably well generated due to age and use now.

[@thomaspatrickparker6648]

There's Live Facelift but its hard to find. There's also their 2 songs on the Singles set. Unfortunately they never made concert DVDs like other bands, wish they had.

[@TheStepmonkey]

Exactly, ALL the other grunge bands have HD footage of their best concerts but AiC only has Live at the Moore, which is also a bad quality recording. I seriously blame their horrible management by Susan Silver.

[@TheStepmonkey]

@@thomaspatrickparker6648 It's all due to bad management by Susan Silver, she was busy working only for his husband, Chris Cornell. AiC deserved so much more...

[@manlymen552]

I mean they could put this out as a DVD

[@npsousa01]

This is live...what a incredible voice.

[@marksnow9274]

Best coming out of Seattle

[@andresvelasquez3858]

Sea of sorrow is such a banger!

[@stevenresendez1170]

Of all the live performances on YT. This one is the best.

even when he was healthly had a sort of mysterius and damned aurea. His eyes look deep and dark. The most damned of his generation (not Kurt). Thanks Layne

He was addicted to heroin, it's not like flipping a light on and off

​@@manlymen552 dfntly no switching off any lights. I've been there addict for 11 years on herpin. Clean now. Still runs thru my mind to use. No one understands that it never goes away. It's always gonna be there in the back of your mind. It's how you deal with it and get thru.

[@1998gst4611]

Dam brings back memories i remember sitting in my living room front of the tv recording this live performance on the VHS recorder yes i said it VHS recorder and this was aired on ABC 1991 the same year i graduated from my senior high school. The 90s were the best memorable times of my life.

[@xviphoenix69]

I used to use a VHS recorder as far back as 2001. The first video I ever recorded was Soundgardens loud love off of a show called VH1 the rock show. I hated my generation... I wished I would have been 10 years older back then.

[@jerich8595]

I thought my hometown of the 1991 Cincinnati Bogarts Layne Staley's Birthday was Layne Staley's best Work but this obviously is #1. Proven now that late 1991 were Layne Staley's best ever Performances 🎉😂❤❤n
